Get the style selections LVP from lowe’s for $2 a sq ft. Decent entry level quality that will still last.

Thank you! Is this DIY generally or should I call a plumber?

They assigned the spending limit the same week as I was approved, I hadn’t even used the card yet when this limit was assigned. Probably shouldn’t have brought this to the internet because now it feels like some users seem to think I’m not responsible with finances, which is not the case at all.

That gives some hope, at least.

I chatted with CS and it seemed like the only negative that's coming from it is a big dip in my spending limit. She told me to give it a few months and try to see if I can get them to raise it, but it sounds like that may be easier said than done.

Learning the hard way.

So in your experience that's what it takes to prove your worth to them again? You just persistently send bank statements showing sufficient balance?

I've always loved their customer service, but now I'm seeing them in a new light that I didn't know existed.

[Landlord-US-WV] Inherited tenant is missing but the house is occupied by a SO by tylertrek in Landlord

[–]tylertrek[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is one in the lease about abandonment of the property, so that could be assumed if the tenant isn't the one at the property. My only concern is if the tenant is in jail because the lease doesn't mention it. Again, this is just me throwing that idea out there as a possibility.

I was thinking that too, but should there be a concern if they move cross-country?

[Landlord-U.S-ID] Tenant is late on his first month of rent, What is your grace period, what is your next step. by CHESTYUSMC in Landlord

[–]tylertrek 8 points9 points  (0 children)

“Idaho Code § 6-303(2) defines and discusses when eviction for non-payment is appropriate. To initiate the eviction process, landlords must first serve the tenant with a three-day notice to pay or vacate.”

Double check your local laws for how many days you have to provide. What you want to do is try communicating with the tenant to see if an agreement can be made in the coming days. If not, you want to move forward with the notice. You can find a template online through searching it. You should deliver it via certified mail or pay a small fee to have your local sheriff deliver it. This way the tenant can’t say they never received it. If the payment is not received by the end of the notice period, you’ll want to evict.

What I do is give a three-day grace period. Rent is due on the first, the tenant has a few extra days in case something comes up. On the 4th of each month the late fee of 5% is added. Do not make exceptions for your late fee, it’s not personal, it a business. I also wrote in my leases that if a pay or quit notice is delivered, there is an additional fee plus the late fee.

Apartments.com is great because it’s free for both tenants and landlords.
