What some people do, and mathematically it makes sense, is to open a new credit account during a 0% for the first year promotional offer, transfer existing balances from a high interest card, and close the old account. 

You get music and you wait.

I googled "whirlpool washer won't spin, drains ok" and got this: http://www.thriftyfun.com/tf89187482.tip.html (I don't make money off this site, and am not promoting it it was just the first thing that came up in google) which says it could be somthing as simple as a broken belt and how to fix it.I fixed a washer this way before, by googling the problem and breaking out the screwdriver.

Just kidding, promote a sense of positive neighborhood vibes and trim the trees!

Thanks- give me a PM or reply here next time you're doing a promotion like that.

The agent in Columbus was encouraging of buying long term rentals in C neighborhoods while the agent in Raleigh was promoting short term rentals in B areas in Raleigh and Durham.

@Kelly WiggsHi Kelly,Class C, I'd go carpet.If it were mine I'd go with the most sound deadening pet proof carpet pad I could find, and since you control the Bar, set a Max DB noise level for music 24/7 in the lease and make it pretty low.

No smoking in the house, maybe not even outside, no loud music (I added no Rap or Metal), minimal phones...You have to be the leader and make them respect you.

Do pay off your credit cards and the car loan unless it is on a zero percent promotional loan of sorts.

This was completely unexpected (they recently bough all new furniture, and occurred 2 days after I sent the lease renewal), but came with a promotion.
