Traits You'll Need If You Become A Landlord
In this case it's a rowhouse with a 14-foot wide front. I lived in it personally, anywhere on the entire roof would have an unobstructed southern view. When I signed up for Directv they tried to put it on the front too and I told them no way, it had to be on the roof, It was no issue.
Traits You'll Need If You Become A Landlord
Yeah like I said it's not a crisis. If they would have just asked me though, I would have said put it on the roof like I did back when I lived there. There is a bill in my city being floated around that would mandate they can't be on the front of the building, and if it passes I'm sticking them with the removal bill.
Traits You'll Need If You Become A Landlord
I recently went into being a landlord, keeping my old (small) house and moving into my new house, a large duplex.
I consider myself extremely lucky. I found great tenants for both spaces who both make more money than I do and only seem to rent because they don't feel like dealing with the hassles of owning. Seriously, their credit scores and references were impeccable.
They mail me a rent check every month that I always get before the first of the month when it's due. So far the only "problem" is that the tenants got DirecTV and had the dish mounted to the front of the house without asking me. Annoying, but not a crisis.
Maybe I'm still in the honeymoon stage but it's been pretty sweet so far.

How Do I Stop The Mice From Sneaking Into My Honda Pilot?
My good friend had a 1990 Jetta in college. One morning it wouldn't start and it got towed to the mechanic - he found the entire air intake/filter box area stuffed with acorns. Some squirrel had been stowing them away (my friend hadn't driven the car in about a week.)
Another friend, also an infrequent driver, had many of her Saturn's engine wires chewed through by rats in the underground parking garage she parked it in.
Four Loko Changing Cans To Show How Many Beers You Would Actually Need To Drink To Get The Same Buzz
I stockpiled it when it was on the way out, and I have to say...by the time I got done with those 3 cases (shared among friends, of course) I was ready to be done with it.
Way too much regrettable behavior in a can.
