i make too much to bother with rebates. biggest reason is the crap junk mail that you essentially sign up for. they are "buying" your address for that price and then they sell your address to companies.i have worked hard for the past 4 yrs to pretty much eradicate junk mail.i throw away all coupons i get at the counter IMMEDIATELY when they hand them to me. the last thing i want to do is bother with 50 cents or $1 off. i have better things to do.i do not sign up for credit cards or want to keep track of gas cards, additional payments, etc, etc.. this reminds me of waiting at the gas station to save 5 cents per gallon.i do however tell SW that their prices are higher and they give me discounts or match HD prices.

Being very conservative, myself, this is something I try to remind myself of regularly.

Its helps create budgets and reminders.

Reminds me of when I was in the looking stage for my second SFR.

Thanks for the reminder.

Just a quick reminder, these fees cannot be paid to the owner or any other disqualified person would be a prohibited transaction.

Aaron Norris and Bruce Norris Thanks for the additional info and the reminder for this CA investor to visit the TNG site.

Also, thanks for the reminder to update my profile...as I just updated it to TN.

The truth is, I see that tendency in myself sometimes, to not work as hard when not as much is on the line, so a double thank you for reminding me.

Their contract would have ended the end of June, but the husband moved out the second week of February and the wife the following week.It looks like the husband just disappeared and we have only been able to contact the wife, who claims to have no knowledge of his whereabouts even though they have two children together.The wife also seemed to be under the impression that we should be so kind and no longer charge them rent since they moved out and she no longer has the funds to pay the rent.We put the house back on the market as soon as she left to keep the damage for to a minimum, but we haven’t had any luck finding new renters yet since the market is kind of slow until May or June.Since March rent was due, we sent her and her husband a reminder to pay the rent.Well, of course that did not go over well.
