Getting Rental #2 ready for new renter and spending money like madness.....

May 15th, 2017 at 03:28 pm

Our new renter is scheduled to move in on June 1, so we are working hard to get the house completely ready for them. We spent all weekend working on a new maintenance-free deck and lots of cleaning. It was a looooonnng weekend...lol.

MO is over half done on the deck and I got nearly all of the cleaning done. We are having his sister who does cleaning come in to finish up a few things this week.

We also found out the hot tub had a leak so we had someone come in to fix that. $$$$$

Meanwhile we are eating out like madness while we are in town working on the rental (an hr away from our home) and also paying for food/drinks for family and friends that have been helping with the deck. I am sure we spent over $200 on food and beer this weekend....ugh! Hopefully the hemorrhaging of money will be over soon and I can share some before and after pics of the deck!

    Remember, that's SO cheap compared to what you guys would have paid if you had the deck done professionally! And it's so great that your friends/family help you out! (I'm guessing you do the same for them.)

    dh - You are right for sure! And yes we made sure everyone who helped knows that we are indebted to them and to call us up when they need help!
