Obviously very well since I have not had to take anyone to court of late nor have I had any move outs recently. $247!! now I am really upset!

How do you figure out "if someone is going to be a good tenant" without > hiring an impartial agency to research an individuals' background? D..I don't need an impartial agency to tell me if someone has worked consistently, how many evictions they have had , why they are moving, and what they plan for the future. Some of it is common sense.. some gut instinct. On my application I have a saying.. "Be honest in all things that you do and treat everyone with respect." They know going into my units, they are clean, the building will be kept clean and they will be treated with respect as long as they themselves act accordingly. There have been bumps, been to court, have had to call the police the list goes on but overall, my tenants have been wonderful people from all walks of life working hard to make it just like the rest of us. In short...what you give is what you receive...expect the best and surprisingly you receive it. Sorry for the polly anna...You most likely have several units..I don't nor do I have a title so our stories and positions are most different. Would like to state...1920 city council rules were made to control the City from the common people. Citizens Allizence held control 1916 - 1934..it was an open market, big business and the wealthy until the Truckers Strike. To be following the City guidelines of control from that particular era is not one to favor. Now, if they would give Nokomis Library back the hours it deserves, life would be great!
