landlord: Tenant troubles with a section 8 lady - 04/20/12 09:41 AM
I like to believe people will improve themselves.  Most of my section 8 people (and I have had 4 tenants on section 8)  do there best.   They have fallen on hard times.  It is difficult to acquire the section 8 voucher.  The waiting list is over 3 years here in Ada County and they are not accepting new applicants.  When one thinks about this it is very scary.  Someone needed help 3 years ago and they still need it. I would imagine that many people have solved their problems by the time they are off the wait list.
About 1.5 years … (3 comments)

landlord: Last day before dad and Cheryll leave for Israel....And the research project... - 01/30/12 10:31 AM
OK I now have spent a week on Calcudos (Dad's research project) and very little time on my business... Some of the work is finished but there is going to be a lot of work while dad is traveling.  They offered to take me but as a landlord I am loath to leave when the rent is due.   It is hard to leave in this business but if they need me I could go later.  My housemate and I have worked very hard with dad and the programmer.  Yesterday we tested the program and came up with user suggestions.  I also … (1 comments)

landlord: Trust....What I don't like about being a landlord.... - 01/14/12 10:27 AM

I trust the people I surround myself with to be there.  So … (8 comments)

landlord: Rental Blues......For rent again... Beautiful Victorian.... 5 bedrooms, 2 baths 3300 sq ft... $1050/month - 10/23/11 12:42 PM

This beautiful home in Caldwell's Stuendburg historical district is up for rent again.  It is an absoultely cool old Victorian circa 1900....My favorite is the wrap around porch.... The problem is that my last tenant trashed it and didn't pay Octobers rent.  They gave proper notice if they were moving in November but they kept lying about the check in the mail..... They also left it damaged and very dirty.....I and my work crew are making it shine again but it is expensive and tiring..... They said they didn't like pets but their pets peed all over it.....   They didn't … (5 comments)
