$20K Update - Possible Renters for Rental #2!!

May 1st, 2017 at 06:59 pm

Just a small update to savings. I took the leap and posted my old house for rent onto public FB sites this last weekend. I was hoping to rent to a friend or family member, but we didn't find anyone, so had to open it up to the public. This was my personal house that I lived in for 8 years, and then now rented to a family friend and my BIL for the last 2 years....so I am very nervous to have a stranger in there!

I posted it on Thursday night and had tons of responses, MO showed it all weekend and we already have 3 separate applicants who want it. We have decided on one and MO has set up a meeting with them for this evening to sign a lease and move in starting June 1. That will give us 30 days to get some minor repairs done, and also have some major cleaning done as I had no lease with friend/BIL and the cleaning that was done is not good enough to have someone move in.

So far things are going very smoothly so hopefully that continues! Also with our Property Management that we do for my parents 4 unit, we had a tenant moving out and had to find a new one for that. We did find a new renter and got them in and settled for May 1, feels good to be getting all these vacancies filled!

Back from Vegas! $20K Update!

April 24th, 2017 at 05:18 pm

We are back from Laughlin/Vegas! We had a lot of fun and overall had a very cheap vaca, we only had to take $605 out of savings! I am excited that we were able to hang on above $18K!! Now back to the grind until our next vaca at the end of July.

We are still working on getting a renter for my old house (Rental #2). I have not advertised it to strangers yet, still hoping maybe we can find a friend/family member before we have to do that, but if something doesn't come up in the next few weeks we will need to open it to the masses as I don't want to miss more then one months rent.

Spring Cleaning mode has hit me and I feel totally overwhelmed with all the cleaning, organizing, lawn work, repairs that need to get done! Time to make a list to get some organization and planning implemented!

Yes!! A great update! MO got his bonus, a lot of it was used to pay catch-up from overspending, but still able to put $500 in savings, plus we are looking good in checking.

My cousin came and looked at Rental #2, he is very interested and wants to see if his camper will fit on the parking pad next to the house. Sounds like as long as that works out he will want to move in! Fingers crossed!

$20K Update - Renters Moving Out

March 31st, 2017 at 06:08 pm

Well my renters in Rental #2 gave their 30 day notice yesterday. That is good news and bad news. It is bad news because it is never fun to have someone move out, have to get the place cleaned up again, and find new renters. Good news is that the renters that were living there were a friend of MO's, and also Mo's brother. Since it was family we were renting the place for less then we could get in the market $1200...so now we can list it for more! I put it up on my FB page last night for $1500 and already have a few bites. Most promising is my 1st cousin and his GF. I also would be fine lowering the rent for them to $1300, still $100 more then we were getting, and someone I trust in my house. They are coming to look at the place tomorrow, hopefully that will work out! Smile
