I was just talking to my brother, and he informed me that we'll have tenants in our house by the fourteenth of next month. That seems kind of weird--the thought of someone else living in the house I grew up in--but the nice thing is, they'll be paying my brother and I money to live there. Told my brother about rent, too. He'll be by with it tomorrow. Have you ever been a landlord before?

Yes and I didn’t like lt but I shouldn’t discourage you. I hope you and your brother have better luck.

My brother's going to be in charge of the "landlording"--I think partly because I don't drive and couldn't get over there fast if they needed it, and also if they need it, he would be the one doing any repairs and the like.

@xstitcher We didn’t live near our rental house and the renters were rough on the house, repairs were always needed and there was trouble collecting rent. It was a nightmare. But I shouldn’t discourage you. Yo might have better luck.

That must be Angel in the photo. I have never been nor do I want to be a landlord.

Yes, it is. That day we were visiting her doggie friend and when it was time to go home, Angel immediately went next door to the house we used to live in.
