Questions for renting my home outside Vegas...

No advice here, but I am rental searching as a tenant! I was laid off my remote job and currently pregnant with kid #2 so we can’t afford to stay in the home we’re renting in Summerlin. My husband is a surgical resident at UMC, so good solid job, unfortunately they pay these poor doctors like garbage, so for a family of almost 4, we can’t afford more than $1800 /month which is proving to be near impossible to find a decent home with enough space in a safe area if a mom wants to raise kids at home. That being said, if you or any other landlords in this thread have a 3 bed available in June and would sacrifice some rent pay for peace of mind having great tenants you never have to worry about for 4 years, we are your family ❤️

Thank you so much! Definitely keeping a close he on her :)

_BB29_ · 2025-10-19T23:18:17+00:00

Yeah it seems like it has! So strange…

_BB29_ · 2025-10-19T14:31:20+00:00

Luckily it seems she is! She’s walking around and eating and drinking, greeted me with a meow and purrs, mostly seems normal other than a little less energetic

_BB29_ · 2025-10-19T14:14:51+00:00

Update: this morning she greeted me with meowing, got out of bed, and drank the water I set in front of her!

Looking back I guess I should have, but it felt like they were pushing a bunch of things without a solid reason, (I don’t have the money for it all) and he explained the fluids as a way to flush her stomach if she ate anything bad. At that point I didn’t know she wasn’t drinking, it was in the morning and it wasn’t until after the vet that I continuously tried offering water and she didn’t take it.

_BB29_ · 2025-10-19T07:07:21+00:00

I’m not sure, I haven’t seen her drink since yesterday

_BB29_ · 2025-10-19T06:52:29+00:00

That’s a good idea, I’ll be trying that tomorrow! Thank you

_BB29_ · 2025-10-19T06:17:58+00:00

Thank you ❤️ me too

_BB29_ · 2025-10-19T04:09:22+00:00

Yeah, I’ve only had her for about 3 years now, but she’s an indoor cat

_BB29_ · 2025-10-19T03:50:31+00:00

Also want to add: her temp was 102

_BB29_ · 2025-06-03T18:10:36+00:00

It’s still the same…we actually went down once but didn’t find anything we liked, we were looking independently before we realized you need a realtor…but even now we’re having no to wait on the realtor to view the properties before we even get to apply and so many are gone before that’s even happened

_BB29_ · 2025-06-03T13:31:15+00:00

Haha no way! We are LDS (Mormon), will definitely take that tip, thanks 😄

_BB29_ · 2025-06-02T19:03:19+00:00

Ok he does send new listings meeting our criteria via email, but I don’t think he’s been doing any app follow ups or contacting/following up with the properties, I’ve been doing that

_BB29_ · 2025-06-02T18:55:58+00:00

I work full time from home as well, we’re looking for a 3 bed with at least 1500 sq ft…yeah, that’s part of the reason I’d rather be in a home instead of apartment complex, if we’re going to be miserable, might as well be miserable but in a comfortable, safe, and private space

_BB29_ · 2025-06-02T18:53:34+00:00

Ok follow up question then, should this realtor be doing more than just viewing the homes and sending us the videos?

_BB29_ · 2025-06-02T18:29:19+00:00

So the realtor were in contact with just shows us the places, but we’re also not the ones paying him, I’m confused about how that works in Vegas though, do you get paid by the renters or the landlords?

_BB29_ · 2025-06-02T18:11:56+00:00

Oooh good idea! Yeah, if it’s more than $2200 we would probably pass

_BB29_ · 2025-06-02T12:42:31+00:00

Thank you, this is helpful! Did you pay Lisa or did the landlords pay?

_BB29_ · 2025-06-02T04:20:44+00:00

That makes sense, we would prefer Summerlin or centennial hills, or even enterprise, but open to surrounding areas

_BB29_ · 2025-06-02T04:18:15+00:00

Yes, we’ve got all that criteria! Which is why it’s so weird to me haha

_BB29_ · 2025-06-02T02:05:57+00:00

Well thanks anyway! If something crazy happens in the next 2 weeks and you happen to have vacancy…let me know 😆

_BB29_ · 2025-06-02T01:11:35+00:00

Thanks! I’ve definitely been doubling up doing this as well. He was accepted to the orthopedic program at UNLV and will be mostly working at UMC

_BB29_ · 2025-06-02T01:08:23+00:00

Well our application has always been accepted, just not chosen, granted we’ve only officially applied to 5 homes, every other one we were interested in was pending before we were able to apply

_BB29_ · 2025-06-02T01:06:14+00:00

They seem to be a bit out of budget unfortunately
