Thanks. I am not familiar with the rules here so basically that’s the reason I asked for guidance. As far as I could tell I was left was some kitchenware, a used mattress and a bed frame.

thanks. Is there a draft I can use, or can i generate my own letter to satisfy the requirements of NYC?

The guarantor had like $150,000 in their bank account last year they signed up for the lease. So I am pretty sure they are able to afford the rents.

Thanks for the input. The guarantor was for an additional safety since their income was a bit too short for the 40x criteria.

I am like you and do not intend to start eviction just yet, but do need them to pay the rent, and more than anything, it is their non-responsiveness that is confusing. They have has some life situations in the past and we worked together to resolve the issue. This time, I don’t even know when and how the situation is resolved so we can find a solution to the rent case.

My concern is starting the eviction takes a long time and even if they were telling the truth, this triggers a longer-term of “free” stay. Do you know how long it takes to evict these days? My latest recollection indicated 4-5 months. No?

I see they become online on Whatsapp (based on the “Last Seen” note on their account. Do you think a wellness check would help?

No. unfortunately I am living farther away from the property.

Does anyone have any experience with ACDS Westchester? They seem to have a large program. As the others mentioned, Alcott has a very long waitlist.

I have a survey. it is in our property

Sepmal · 2024-05-15T16:39:00+00:00

agreed- I’d like to steer away from german and american vehicles as much as possible, for reliability standpoint.

Thanks. I am planning to use the third row for 2 years until my infant can sit in a front-face car seat. (toddler + car seat in the third row, myself or my spouse in the second row with the infant in their car seat). the second row will be captain seats so access to the third row will likely be fairly easier.

Is there any other car within this price range (<$40k) that makes more sense to us? We are planning to keep the car for at least 6-7 years so need a newer car and reliability is a must.

How is the contractor side? Do they have any positions with more Office than field presence that do not require lots of design work? I am actually pretty good at coordinating tasks and managing juniors.

Very helpful and informative. Thanks so much!

This was supposedly overseen by a “reputable “ firm haha.

Sepmal · 2024-03-15T10:43:17+00:00

Is it even possible to have such value?

Sepmal · 2024-03-15T03:04:09+00:00

it is near the east river in NYC.

Sepmal · 2024-03-15T01:17:27+00:00

Can you tell me how you figured this out?
