My 'project' lately has been dealing with slack-ass tenants living in my Mega-Shed..
I rented it out to a couple back in November 2017 and things were going fine till the start of 2018.. Their car blew it's motor causing them both to lose their jobs in January. Then their car got repo'd the next month and then the guy's wife left soon after that. He has been either catching rides with shady characters or peddling on a bike trying to find work but couldn't find much other than a dishwasher at a restaurant. He was bothering me to take him here and there like to job interviews, to the grocery store, to pick up money being wired from a family member, etc and I put a stop to that. I'm the landlord, not a shuttle service..
The contract arrangement was $350 every 2 weeks for $700 per month includes power, water, internet, & digital antenna, as well as being furnished with a washer, dryer, fridge, microwave, convection oven, window AC/heater unit, and since January I've only received $360. Been told one sob story after another from him till I finally had enough and gave him till the end of the month to pack his stuff up and get out andFinally today his stuff has been moved out with help from some other shady characters after days of waiting.
I already have someone else lined up to move in right when tax season ends so that will help me out big time. He seems a lot more financially stable than this guy so it will be nice to have a steady flow of income till I can find a full time job.
