Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
So my honey is down south and after some lasagna i fell asleep on the couch - cell phone rang and woke me, thought it was her and got several exchanges into the conversation before it dawned on me that it was a 23YO tenant calling me to let me know that she should be able to go out to the bar at midnight, come home after 2, and not have the downstairs neighbor bust her chops for noise. Uhhhm - ok, i'm waking up now, it's 2:30AM and she's calling me because she was too noisey? The funny part was that my mood was all warm and fuzzy at the beginning of the call and then i couldn't get back to sleep till after 4. Gonna go over and see if she wants to move her aggreived self to some more simpatico domicile. Think that's the least i can do.
The profit part is that i've been hunkered down waiting for a firestorm of complaints and repair calls as we raised a bunch of the rents. We are very slow to do that, really should hit people once a year with a modest increase. instead i tend to raise them a bit when people move - result for instance is that i hadn't raised a WW2 vets rent since May of '96 - some of that was inertia, some choice - but raising his rent from $360 to $435 had to sting.
