We are receiving absolutely no government help and we are having a hard time paying rent each month or to even keep food in the fridge.

Not sure if you were able to check out the draft this past weekend, but it was extremely well organized and overall a great time.

Appreciate the food for thought

Literal garbage everywhere, carpet I replaced in January smells like pee, dirty diapers on the floor, food everywhere, coloring on walls and doors, holes in walls, furniture everywhere.

From your profile, it doesn't look like you do.Regarding your "food for thought":First, there are a lot of properties available at absolute rock bottom prices here from tax liens.

If the tenant claims you never fixed anything when asked to, you want to have a detailed log of maintenance requests showing what was requested when, how quickly you addressed it and (ideally) what you spent to fix it.You want to be organized, cool, collected, and professional, so that you are and look like a reasonable businessperson.One last tip: If the judge or your attorney offer you a choice between getting a judgment for back rent, or getting the apartment back sooner (possession), always choose possession.

Is it the food?

No idea what was said about the FTC in the past.The SEC is the Federal organization which regulates financial promotions (pooling of funds, discretionary fund management, offering investment opportunities to the public, etc).

I just like to keep the greetings personalized to the property and I think having a separate icon for each property on my phone's home screen would help with organization.
