Bienes Raices Do your applicants have trouble coming up with the move in monies?

to attract tenants, i ran an ad in the paper with a "new year's security deposit special" in the beginning of the year...i lowered the deposit all the way down to 150, but jacked the rent up an extra 50 bucks per month (the tenants of course did not know that though)...instead of 400 a month, they will pay 450/month for a year...people that live in these 400/month rentals are usually not great with money...thus, do not have the cash upfront to move in (esp. after the holidays)..i gave them a cheaper entrance, and they'll pay the extra 50 per month, which i will set aside as a deposit, just in case...the only downside i can see is if they trash the place in a few months before i can get an adequate aggregate deposit

@Adrian Chu  We have to be very aware of the cultural climate we live in - know the rules, abide by them, and proactively lobby for -and make the case for common sense laws and against restrictive rules that ultimately make it more difficult and expensive for the very ones who need the most help.

Account Closed@Nathan G.Also, the fact that nicky went straight to the part about being able to buy pizza in Venezuela with BTC and it not being impressive, which isn't a big deal to me either - much like fact that Iran's central banks are also buying BTC, while ignoring all the rest of the information - the billions of dollars flowing in, shows me where his mind is at.
