Instead of taxing us, why not let the government house the homeless? 

I’m sick of this socialistic mentality of these millennials. And if someone, god bless his or her soul, wants to house the homeless like Kim from Florida said they should be getting a tax break. Also as Tom from Canada said they have issues whether it’s drugs, mental illness and/or alcohol abuse. The reason why the government doesn’t want to house these people is because of the same issues you would have with them. Enough of all this coddling the US is become more and more of a Welfare State.

This and this alone makes me rethink House hacking.

There are so many red flags where do I begin. The Gf wants you to hide her stuff to avoid possible theft, you went to deliver (an hour drive mind you!!) the GF to the BF, you filled his car on gas and this doesn’t take in to account the lack of payments happening left and right. You need to get control of the wheel before this ship sinks.

I had a similar scenario happen to me last month, The GF and BF were breaking up and the GF told me this after meeting them the first day. My exact words were “I don’t want to get or be put in the middle of anything. All I want is the unit to be kept in its current condition and I need the rents to pay the mortgage”. The last thing I want is to get involved in their personal life, as you are now attuned to, the Post-methhead BF now thinks you’re doing something with his GF, guess who's unit is going to get the toilet concreted or a war zone of a unit given back to them and to make matters worse you have no security deposits to buffer some of these costs if they happen. 

I will go out of my way to be rude or to remove myself from any personal conversation, not my chair not my problem. This is a business not Real World Littleton, Colorado

 I think this is the best description of said situation

Pictures or it didn't happen

I like to consider myself a reasonable man; the tenant didn’t have a job and was back on his rent, probably concerned with getting kicked out. That’s stressful. He did pay up, I assume late fees and all, if this tenant is worth keeping then I would approach the situation head on. Texts aren’t working, next time you see him in person try to show some compassion just enough so he knows you care but still mean business. We all have had those days that we said things we shouldn’t have. If you can come to an agreement and make amends then I would proceed with keeping him, but if after this attempt to offer the olive branch goes left then it’s time to evict.

I didn’t take the time to look at ERents FB page, I’m not that invested in this thread LOL. But I do find it interesting that this would happen and how it’s being handled is atrocious. I would be just as livid if I was using ERent over Cozy. I haven’t heard of ERent until this thread was made. All LLs that are using ERent have a reason to be concerned. I hope it’s just a bank being careful and causing all the waves not potential fraud.

After looking for the deposit schedule, I found this

“For early October during our transition to a new processing bank the processing time may be 3-5 business days. This is a temporary change while we complete the transition.”
