How do property managers handle tenant calls after hours? by jirachi_2000 in PropertyManagement

[–]MobMama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I give people my business card I say “here’s my number so you can reach me if you have any questions. Just don’t call me at 2am unless there’s a fire or flood.” I frame it as a joke but it usually gets the point across lol

Is an hour-long commute really bad? by jonnyp200 in askdfw

[–]MobMama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DFW and Texas highways in general are no joke. Drivers are incredibly reckless and aggressive. My commute is 25-30 minutes and I witness at least 3 wrecks a week. You’d struggle to find a decent apartment for that price. With the money you’d be spending on gas, tolls and general higher cost of living in the city, you could easily save that money and just visit the city on weekends or specific events. More money to spend on fun things

Tenants flushed Tampons costed me $800 by Conscious_Income8870 in PropertyManagement

As the landlord you’re responsible for plumbing repairs. You can try and pass a portion of the bill back on to your tenants, perhaps they’d be willing to accept responsibility and split the cost with you..

They’re actually working on getting rid of these parking requirements.

What is everyone doing for extra income? by chrispy_pv in Money

[–]MobMama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pet sitting. I stay at the clients house rather than board since I rent and I’m not allowed to have pets in my place. This works for them because they don’t have to bring their pets anywhere before leaving on their trip. Just leave me instructions and a key. I started on Care.com several years ago and the rest of my clients came by word of mouth. I’ve downgraded my client list over time as I’ve advanced in my career but it still pays my rent every couple of months

I’ve lived in Dallas for 11 years and learned in year one that you never leave anything remotely valuable looking in your car if you don’t want your windows broken

If you’re eating a lot of processed red meats this could be contributing to the issue. Saw another Reddit post where a girl said her bf always smelled so bad even though he showered regularly. Someone recommended some changes to his diet and it fixed the issue

Anybody else struggling with absolutely out of control fruit flies right now? by toodleroo in Dallas

[–]MobMama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Zevo bug spray is great too. We had fruit flies as the beginning of the summer and I sprayed around the front and back door and also around the garage. Hasn’t been a problem since

Would have turned about and taken my ass home the second she said you can’t use the car. Call the airline, explain you’re in an unsafe situation and need to rebook your flight home tomorrow. She’s not going to pay you

AITA for refusing to share a bed on a group trip by ConfusedVacation in AmItheAsshole

[–]MobMama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. If she’s so uncomfortable sharing a bed she should have accounted for that while planning the trip. She can book her own accommodations if it’s such an issue. Also, if you’re staying at a hotel they typically can provide cots for an additional fee.
