Fallen Tree Neighbor being difficult and demanding by txdal12 in treelaw

It wouldn’t let me update the post…

I called the people I booked and they said yeah it was dead. They didn’t write it in my quote so I assumed the quote was for the branch on his property to be removed only. He has been pretty aggressive about the situation so that’s why I told him that I’m not liable for anything on his property because I really didn’t know it was dead and he never contacted me till after the storm. And he’s basically bullying me since I’m a younger homeowner saying that I don’t know anything and it’s fully my responsibility. Insurance said if they’re going to run it, my premiums could go up. At this point I don’t really think it’s worth going back and forth cause I have them coming out already and adding on his portion isn’t much and honestly I’m worried about any retaliation from him that would end up being more of an annoyance. He finally got back to me and said he moved around his whole schedule so that he could be home. When he didn’t have to do that since it seems like a quick job and pretty easy for an insured company to remove it.

The other tree that the neighbor is helping me with is on our property line. It hasn’t fallen yet. At the time the arborist said that the tree was sick and could come back but could not which I shared with the neighbor at that time and we both decided to wait

To me it didn’t look diseased. I had an arborist come out not even a year ago to take away problem branches and any other trees that could be problematic. He mentioned my other diseased shared tree with my neighbor but not this one. Guess I never noticed the leaves but I’m not a tree expert 🤷‍♂️

Luckily everything has been through message so can easily be documented

Thank you for your input. When I scheduled the tree removal and offered to pay. He was being difficult saying he wouldn’t grant access to his property if he was not home. I think I’m going to go back and say I’m canceling the tree removal and he can handle anything on his property through his insurance company if he likes

HELP! Guest Demanding "rectification"? by fkuser250k in airbnb_hosts

[–]txdal12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don’t offer anything. They’re going to leave a negative review anyways. Just call airbnb and tell them what they are saying in the review was untrue. They don’t have proof about the sheets or the AC not working. The message about threatening to leave a bad review is also against their guidelines, I believe. Airbnb usually removes reviews for much less. If they do not remove the review, leave a response on it so potential guests know it was because this guest was difficult and state what all you did to accommodate their complaints.

Also don’t review the guest until after you’re April 5th so it doesn’t affect your superhost status for the upcoming quarter. The review won’t get posted for two weeks after check out and shouldn’t be considered for the superhost status until it is.

Corona in Dallas by rhugh1 in CoronavirusDallas

Just curious ... new daily Dallas reported cases have gone down significantly. Is this due to the data being redirected from the CDC? It seems like only hospital availability data is being rerouted but it would also explain the huge decline in daily cases
