TGIF

Never has been a secret that I do not enjoy cooking. Maybe that is why I am glad it's Friday. We usually grab a sandwich on our way home from working at the apts. So since we work most nights and through the weekends, Friday is jut like any other day.

What a feeling to get my Efficiency rented today. I am tired of the phone ringing non-stop. It is rare to have an efficiency open for so long. Word of mouth, or demand for them gets them filled very fast. For some reason this time around I havent had very good luck. Three different times I had someone to rent it, and they ended up losing their job or just disappearing.

I try to do as much screening over the phone as I can. What a rash of 'just out of jail, been in jail, drug charges, just started work, looking for work, have a record of domestic abuse...theft charges, many FE&D's'....it is so difficult to find a good tenant especially when some of my units arent in the best of neighborhoods.

One unit rented now on to clear out and clean up the one I evicted the other day. Gonna take some work. The gal had an abusive boyfriend and it was 'abused'...
