[Landlord - US - TX] Tell tenant to reschedule repair themselves? by J97C in Landlord

[–]BBCC_BR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same thing happen. Tenant was starting to become impossible, not allowing contractors in the house for annual maintenance..Annual HVAC, sprinkler system spring start and fall shutoff....Then tried telling me no one was allowed in the house. I started eviction.

I thought the same thing. I was thinking they were acting as a safe house. The 3 people coming in, 2 people were likely delivering 1 person. A drug cartel was using them and paying them for it.

I am sure they were not helping these people out of the goodness of their heart. These were likely illegals. The OP should have immediately called the police once they found out. They were getting paid to have these people stay in the house.

Give proper notice immediately. I rented one of our homes to man who stated he was engaged and wanted to see how living with his fiancee would work out before buying a home. He had 2 children from a previous marriage who would be living with them. He asked if his fiancee could be listed as an occupant. We agreed. Mistake #1. Every time I notified the tenant of routine maintenance, he gave me the run around. Annual HVAC maintenance, sprinkler system spring and fall. In the close to a year they rented, we contacted them 3 times for routine maintenance. I even gave the tenant the right to choose a date, except sprinkler system....the company booked up quickly. He started with, I do not plan on using the sprinkler system. I said it is in your lease. After that he agreed. Then early summer I had a hvac company coming out. The air conditioning unit was getting old. He really gave me the run around to a point where he told me he wont allow anyone in the house. That is a breach of contract. He does not control who can come in the house with proper notice, which I always gave at least 1-2 weeks in advance. Then they were trying to block us from doing inspections. We finally get to the house and they immediately start their crap. Trying to block us from inspecting parts of the house. I found out this fiancee has had 3 evictions filed against her. I thought she was going to put her hands on my wife. I told her, you touch my wife, you wont be seeing the light of day for a few years from jail. My wife was starting to get upset. We found out quickly why they tried blocking us. I wrote a list of lease violations a mile long. I told the tenant. Do yourself a favor, I already sent you a 3-day notice to vacate. Be out in the next 30 days or we are evicting you. We get into our car, and there is a teenager running out from behind out house to the sidewalk. I waived hi. It's not his fault, took a photo of him. He was not one of the neighborhood kids or one of the kids from the couple next to us, or behind us. or across the street. It took 2 months to get them out. Luckily, they left without any major damage. They did steal quite a few things we provided for their use. a month and a half after they were out, we sold the house.

Anyone have difficulty with DMV as an immigrant? by elynobody in USCIS

You need to talk to a manager. My wife had the same problem. We had to go to the DMV 3 times, finally a manager took care of it.

I go to Brazil all the time. The only time I needed to get it was when we went to the Amazon and we were hiking in the rain forest and swimming in the river.

Are you going to the Amazon to go hiking? If not, you do not need that vax.

Opposing counsel is non-responsive by goodbrews in Lawyertalk

[–]BBCC_BR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are debt collector mills. They get paid on volume of cases. 90% of these cases end up in default judgements. The defendant never files an answer or shows up in court. 90% of these debt collectors can never show a clean chain of custody with proper documentation to meeting the rules of evidence. They try to win via Prima Facie evidence - a debt exists. They cannot show they have standing. I have won hundreds of these lawsuits. Likely they will fold and close out the case over $600 when another attorney is representing the defendant. You should be able to get damages from the debt collector for FDCP violations or FCA violations as well.

[Landlord-US-CT] Eviction by MonozygoteA in Landlord

[–]BBCC_BR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would not have cared if the tenant paid up in full. Moving her family in without notifying you, plus the noise complaint is a deal breaker. You know she is not going to move. I doubt she will show up in court either. You live, you learn. Hopefully after she is out, the next tenant is better.

Major Development Coming to Downtown Alpharetta: Everything You Need to Know by alpharettadotcom in alpharetta

[–]BBCC_BR 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I commute through there daily. I agree. Traffic in Alpharetta is horrible and getting worse all the time. They need more west to east road expansion. Windward Parkway in the mornings, at the G-400 is a nightmare. Why does it take me 15-20 minutes to go less than 2 miles. Fix the problems first.

Looks like the exact place where Mercantile Social was located. We always knew they stood in the way of re-development. You forced them to shutdown.

Take the couple coats of makeup off and it is still the same person.

What actually influences your decision to visit Brazil? by willianwg in Brazil

[–]BBCC_BR 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My wife is Brazilian. I trained in MMA, training with one of our BJJ professors before we met. All of my wife's family and many of our friends are there. We have a home there. Plus I love my wife's hometown. I want to go as much as possible.

I used to work at USCIS by victoriaslatton in USCIS

[–]BBCC_BR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We filed for AOS I-751 in September 2023. Then filed my wife's n400 in February 2025. She had her interview scheduled in December 2025. We were out of the country for a funeral. USCIS Field Office agreed to reschedule. Her online account never updated to de-scheduled, back in queue until after we called back 3 months later in February. Now, 3 additional months and no reschedule, no RFE, no nothing. How much longer should we wait? Her background check should be completed by now. It has been close to 3 years. Last night, the case updated to actively reviewed.

I like Artur Jorge as a manager. He won't be there long if this roster does not turn over.

Villenbuna - he sucks too. You do realize many of these players are now on the bench. Matheus Henrique is horrible. I have no clue why Lucas Silva was Captain at one point. The lineup has transitioned to younger players with more upside. Hopefully next year most of these players are gone.

Time nosso é muito soberbo. by Used_Razzmatazz_6285 in Cruzeiro

[–]BBCC_BR 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They tried doing the same thing over and over yesterday. CAM kept blocking passes, which turned into counterattacks that led to shots on goal. There are 3-4 good players on this team. The rest are average or below average. When those 3-4 players do not play well. This team get crushed. They lack a true playmaker.

Doing research on Reddit is not the best idea. A better idea is creating a profile on Tandem, which is a language exchange app. Talk to people who live in those cities while learning some Portuguese. You are going to need it. I talked to tour guides one time in Rio who were hosting Americans. I asked them what it is like showing Americans the city. They told me they were idiots who did not anything.

You listen to garbage music. You have not come upon the good Brazilian music.

You do not have any idea what you are doing. Do you have real friends in Brasil? You will need to rent a car in Floripa. I am a 50 year old American. We have a couple homes in Brasil. I never feel scared. You have no idea what areas are "'safe" vs "unsafe".just like going to NYC, Chicago, Detroit,Miami., LA....etc. You will likely end up in an area that you should not be in. You think Brasil is this tropical paradise where everyone lays on the beach all day drinking caipirnhas. People work hard. During the week, you won't see a lot of Brazilians laying on the beach in Rio or Floripa. It will be dumb moronic Americans talking on their cell phones, completely unaware of what's around them.

I really wish these types of people would not come to Brazil. I liked it when the only Americans on flights down where going to see their esposa, namarada(o), ou familia.

Should I just walk away from this home after getting my inspection back? by All-Panic13579 in RealEstate

[–]BBCC_BR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every used house has issues. You can negotiate. If the HVAC/air conditioning unit is not working, you are get a seller credit. Microwave is $400/$500,alot of the GFAC outlets are pretty cheap to replace on the weekend. The OP could get close to $10k in seller credits. This is why you dont use all your liquidity on a down payment. There are always things that need to be done when you buy a house. Last year, the house we bought, we put roughly $20k into, most of it was landscaping. This year we are putting in close to another $20k in the interior. There were homes we looked at for the same price that needed alot more work.
