Are They The Ones?

While collecting a house payment the tenant asked if the house was still open, I told her yes and she said she knew a couple that needs a place, both work and she even told them about the no pets, etc.I told her to give them my number. Well they called today. I was working at the house this evening and did not hear the phone, so I called back when I got home and the guy was excited when I told him to come look, it maybe what he wants, it may not be, but its not ready. I am doing this tomorrow because both are off from work. I Painted the entire hall and all the doors, that is the hardest place to paint because there is no room to use the extension pole. I also did the lower trim in the bathroom and I finished the dining room by doing the upper trim. Tony did more of the trim outside. Tomorrow I will replace a few kitchen tiles, Paint the bathroom, finish the trim in the laundry room, that should finish up the interior painting. Last is always putting the clear coat on the floors. So maybe tomorrow I will have new tenants, maybe not. How was your day?

What's the use of all that work if you don't have tenants? You will have one soon.

Does it at least seem promising?

Yes but I often show it and the people are super happy and like it but they don`t take it, usually because I refuse to accept payments on the deposit since I got burned many times in the past.

I hope you found new tenants, a couple with no pets (no children?) and both working is the best.

I hope you do have future tenants. Sounds like you're coming along very good with the rental. My day was good. Now, onto today, which is laundry day for me.

These people are getting virtually a brand new home to walk into so I don't see they can help but be impressed. I hope they like it and that they will be good tenants for you.

It is a good sign that both work. They are getting the chance to see that you believe in keeping up the place as well.

Just curious do you keep extra tiles for when just a few need replaced? Do you use the same ones for all your rentals? Just curious as I think that is what I would do. lol Going to have to read more to see if you got yourself a tenant. I sure hope whoever you get is a better housekeeper!

Yes I did use the same tiles in all of them but I was out so I bought another box.

Well, I hope it works out. How many places do you rent anyway? Just getting this room rented was a major ordeal. I didn't realize how lucky I was getting the first guy I had. It only maybe took 10 days the first time..and he was the first person who actually showed up to look at the house. Even though the current tenant/roommate isn't ideal..he is sure alot better than having the room sit vacant or have to stress about people coming to the house all the time, or worse, not showing up at all!

Right now I have 3 rentals an I am selling 3 as for sale by owner, which is payments each month. Edit: Yes sometimes they will sit for a month, usually I get to show them more the last 2 weeks of the month, I have become picky so I will pass if they are not right for me.
