Not Normal Landlord #Shorts

Not Normal Landlord #Shorts

But you know, none of these people who lived here or people that was they owe, every last one of them owed me for being here. More than just being here, me helping them after they were here. I’ve never had a landlord that would loan me money. I’ve never had a landlord to help me fix my car. I’ve never and I rented guys I’ve rented for years. I’ve never, ever had a landlord like me. 🙏 Subscribe,…

The Florida Legislature unanimously passed a bill that would allow police to immediately remove squatters — a departure from the lengthy court cases required in most states.

"It gives me a real feeling of positive hope that we still have the ability to discuss challenges in our society and work with our legislatures in a bipartisan way," Patti Peeples, a Sunshine State property owner who was barred from her own home after squatters refused to leave, told News4Jax.

The legislation, which passed both chambers earlier this month, would allow police to remove squatters without a lease authorized by the property owner and adds criminal penalties. Landlords, under the current law, typically have to wade through a long and expensive legal process to remove squatters.

FLORIDA SQUATTER VICTIM LAUNCHING WEBSITE TO ASSIST OTHER LANDLORDS WITH ILLEGAL OCCUPANTS

"Imagine for a moment that you leave from your day of serving the citizens of Florida as a senator and you return to your home," Peeples told the state Senate Criminal Justice Committee in February. "But when you walk in, there are strangers sitting on your sofa, watching your TV, eating your food."

"You ask who they are and what they are doing, and they tell you that they have rented this house and present you with a lease," she continued.

An advocacy group, Florida Rising, initially opposed the legislation, fearing landlords could abuse the measures to quickly boot legitimate tenants. But the group took a neutral position after amendments were added to protect legal occupants, a spokesperson told News4Jax.

The bill, now headed to Gov. Ron DeSantis’ desk, would also allow wrongfully evicted tenants to sue to regain access and recover attorneys’ fees and damages.

Last year, it took weeks for the squatters in Peeples’ home to get evicted. They had produced a lease and claimed they were rental scam victims — a strategy the squatters used previously, court records show.

By the time they were ousted, Peeples’ house was left with thousands of dollars worth of damage.

"I've had so many emotions," Peeples told Fox News in April. "I've had just intense anger, I have felt defeated, I felt wronged by the legal system, I felt wronged by the police system."

The squatters never faced criminal charges.

If the Florida legislation becomes law, intentionally presenting a phony lease would be designated as a misdemeanor, and selling or leasing someone else’s property would be a felony, as would causing more than $1,000 in property damage.

Flash Shelton, a handyman-turned-squatter hunter, recently told Fox News that squatting laws needed to become stricter so landlords could more easily boot illegal occupants. He pointed to Atlanta, where, according to the National Rental Home Council, around 1,200 homes have been taken over by squatters.

"If we were to criminalize it, that would enable us to send in the National Guard to sweep that whole neighborhood and get those 1,200 houses clear," Shelton told Fox News in February.

Victoria and Elijah had always wanted a lot of kids, but fertility issues got in the way of that. Nearly a year of failed IVF treatments and being on the waiting list for adoption, they were ready to give up, when Elijah’s nephew admitted that he got his girlfriend pregnant at the start of their senior year. They didn’t feel ready to be parents, and as they were discussing their options, Elijah offered up a kinship adoption. It ended up being the best option, and nine months later Miller came along. And four years later when another IVF treatment ended up working, his little sister Blaire was born. The family of four, along with Miller’s grandparents spend almost every day together, meeting for dinners and events on weekends. They are also close to their extended family, though most of them are on the mainland. Miller is extremely close with Blaire, but also extremely protective. She has gotten into some trouble along the line, and he has felt like he’s the one that has to get her out of it.

full blurb.

Miller Hughes was born a small town boy and he’d, apparently, die a small town boy. A kinship adoption and grandparents that lived just down the road, made the Hughes family extremely close. It was hard to be lonely as a Hughes, and that was by design, but sometimes as a teenage boy, it could feel suffocating to be surrounded by family or someone who knew you as Victoria’s son! or Charles’ grandson! So when it came time for college, Miller took his love for food (fostered and encouraged by his family) to a professional scale by attending the Culinary Institute of America and diving headfirst into the competitive world of restaurants in New York City. He made friends, fell in love, and was generally anonymous in the big city. And he thought that’s what he wanted. Until his fiance sat him down and told him, mid wedding planning, that she was in love with her childhood best friend and couldn’t keep doing this. Within an hour she was gone, taking friends with her and leaving the usually chipper and friendly Miller feeling isolated and cold. Feeling alone, he did what he always knew how to do. He called his family. They didn’t waste a second. A friend of his father’s had a job opening at a restaurant on the island and Miller had an interview a few days later. His grandparents were downsizing to an apartment that needed less maintenance than their home, and needed help maintaining their rental property next to the house. So Miller packed his life in the city up, moved back home and started trying to rebuild himself piece by piece, trying to ignore the fairytale written about him by those people that saw him as Just Another Hughes.

Fuck fuck fuck fuck. 2024 is already shaping up to be the worst year ever. My dad is losing his job because the company went bankrupt and is closing all their stores. I keep being rejected from jobs I apply (keep your fingers crossed I get this most recent application). And now my fucking landlord has sent his handyman to tell us he's thinking of selling the house me and my family rent from him in May. What the fuck are we supposed to?! We can afford to buy a house! And rental properties around here are expensive now cause the market is garbage. And I don't want to move! I like this house! I like my neighbors! I'm so upset. We can't get the asshole on the phone either cause we never can to ask of this is even true and what his fucking plans are. We've lived here for 14 years and have only ever asked for basic repairs and even then we've only done that rarely and we've asked for nothing else! This sucks!!!

Fuck 2024 🖕🏻

[fairfaxfamilyministriessimblr]

Welcome to Fairfax Family Ministries!!

Hello, and welcome to the official blog for Fairfax Family Ministries! I’m Emily Anne, and this is my husband, Peter. We’re newlyweds living in a quaint little home in the town center of Henford-on-Bagley.

Peter works as a handyman for the Fairfax Family rental properties and I currently work from home as an online teacher for the same homeschool curriculum that I used growing up!

During our courtship, we spent many hours praying together and seeking counsel from both of our parents about whether or not I should continue teaching once we got married. Fortunately, everyone agreed that I should since I’m able to work from home and don’t have any little ones running around just yet. Obviously when we do have children being a mother will become my main focus, but in the meantime, I’m so glad to have the opportunity to be a resource and a blessing to homeschool students and their parents. Peter and I have even discussed writing our own homeschool curriculum together someday.

When Peter and I aren’t working, we both enjoy tending to the little garden that I planted in our backyard. We only have flowers and herbs for now, but in the future, we hope to expand our garden to grow our own fruits and vegetables right here at home! Since we both want a big family one day (Watcher-willing), this will be a cost-effective way to feed our children as healthy as possible.

At first, I was a little bit worried about moving to Henford-on-Bagley after the wedding since I grew up in Newcrest, but Peter is such a charismatic guy that he manages to make everyone we meet feel like old friends. Here he is chatting with some ladies that we met on our walk the other day. He noticed how one of the women was dressed and insisted on taking the time to share the gospel with her to remind her how sacred her body is. It’s such a shame how in this day and age so many women use the hot weather as an excuse to show their bodies off to anyone who walks past. I’m so grateful to have a husband who encourages me to maintain the principles of modesty that I was raised with. No short shorts for me!

That’s about it for us right now. We’re enjoying this honeymoon stage of getting to know each other as husband and wife, but also eagerly waiting and praying for what the Watcher has in store for our future! We’ve also been praying and seeking guidance from the Watcher regarding Peter’s career path. While my teaching salary is enough to supplement our income for now, it won’t be just the two of us for much longer. ;-) So hopefully in the Watcher’s timing Peter will find a new job that can sustain our growing family. Until next time!

Faithfully serving the Watcher,

Emily Anne

Maximizing Occupancy Rates in Property Management in Bahrain

Maintaining high occupancy rates in buildings is crucial to the success of property management. Occupancy in a building directly impacts the revenue stream. For example, a residential or commercial building with low occupancy can be difficult to maintain because of the lack of funds.

Therefore, maximizing occupancy in a building is an important aspect of property management.

So, how do you ensure maximum occupancy? Iris Property Managers, the top real estate property management and development company in Bahrain offer expert solutions to maximize occupancy in residential and commercial buildings in Bahrain.

Let’s look at the unique rental property strategies of Iris Property Managers in Bahrain to maximize occupancy.

Market research

For maximizing occupancy it is essential to conduct thorough market research to understand the preferences of tenants in the particular area. Understanding these preferences can help you fix rental rates in tune with the market trends.

Iris Property Management Company is a leading real estate agency in Bahrain with several years of experience in the sales and leasing of property. We also understand the market conditions and offer the most appropriate rental rates for tenant retention.   

Property maintenance

Another important factor ensuring high occupancy rates in residential and commercial buildings in Bahrain is the maintenance of the property. Prospective tenants will be impressed with a building if it is well-maintained. On the other hand, an ill-maintained building will not attract any buyers or tenants.

Hiring a property management company can help to maintain the property including building electrical works, renovation and repair, and also building AC maintenance. Iris Property Management Company is one of the best property maintenance companies in Bahrain. We undertake property and building maintenance including plumbing, decorative painting, and also handyman services among other property maintenance services. We ensure regular property inspections to retain the property value.

Amenities

Today, offering amenities plays a significant role in maximizing occupancy in buildings in Bahrain. Residential buildings that offer amenities like a fully functional gymnasium, laundry services, and walking area,  among other services, are more likely to attract new tenants and also retain old tenants. Further, commercial buildings offering amenities like high-speed internet and cleaning services attract tenants.

Enhanced tenant screening process

As one of the best property management companies in Bahrain, Iris Property Management Company offers enhanced tenant screening as an effective rental property strategy to maximize occupancy.

So, how does an enhanced tenant screening process improve tenant retention? Thoroughly screening tenants, eliminates the chances of leasing the house to tenants without a stable income and who cannot pay timely rents. Also, tenant screening reduces the rate of frequent tenant turnover. That is why tenant screening is crucial to improve tenant retention.

Tenant communication and feedback

Another rental property strategy is to ensure the satisfaction of your tenants. To gauge the satisfaction of tenants on your property you must implement an open communication policy that allows tenants to provide appropriate feedback about their satisfaction. Tenants will only be happy if they are satisfied that they are getting their money’s worth. Therefore, always encourage tenant communication and feedback.

Iris Property Managers

With properties in some of the most popular locations in Bahrain, Iris Property is one of the most preferred real estate agents in the Kingdom. Apart from Property maintenance services, we offer comprehensive real estate services like facilities and homeowners association management.

Our Projects include a range of completed and ongoing properties including Suha Plaza 1 and Orchid Plaza.

With Iris Property as your sales and leasing agent, you can find a range of properties within your budget.

How to Get Started with Real Estate Investment

Real estate investment can be a lucrative and rewarding venture, providing a steady income stream and potential for long-term appreciation. However, getting started can be daunting for beginners. This guide will walk you through the essential steps to begin your real estate investment journey, ensuring you have a solid foundation to build upon.

1. Educate Yourself

Before diving into real estate investment, it's crucial to educate yourself about the industry. There are numerous resources available, including books, online courses, podcasts, and blogs. Some recommended books include "Rich Dad Poor Dad" by Robert Kiyosaki, "The Millionaire Real Estate Investor" by Gary Keller, and "Investing in Rental Properties for Beginners" by Lisa Phillips. Understanding the basics of real estate, investment strategies, and market dynamics will help you make informed decisions.

2. Set Clear Investment Goals

Determine what you want to achieve with your real estate investments. Are you looking for immediate cash flow, long-term appreciation, or a combination of both? Your goals will influence your investment strategy, the types of properties you choose, and your overall approach. Setting clear, measurable, and realistic goals will provide direction and keep you focused.

3. Assess Your Financial Situation

Real estate investment requires capital, so it's essential to assess your financial situation. Calculate your net worth, analyze your income and expenses, and determine how much money you can allocate to real estate investments. Consider consulting with a financial advisor to ensure you're in a solid financial position to start investing. Additionally, research different financing options, such as mortgages, home equity loans, and private lenders.

4. Choose Your Investment Strategy

There are various real estate investment strategies to choose from, each with its pros and cons. Some popular strategies include:

Buy and Hold: Purchasing properties to rent out for steady cash flow and long-term appreciation.

Fix and Flip: Buying undervalued properties, renovating them, and selling them for a profit.

Wholesaling: Finding discounted properties, putting them under contract, and selling the contract to another investor for a fee.

Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs): Investing in publicly traded companies that own and manage real estate portfolios.

Choose a strategy that aligns with your goals, risk tolerance, and available resources.

5. Research and Analyze Markets

Location is a critical factor in real estate investment. Research different markets to identify areas with strong growth potential, high demand for rentals, and favorable economic conditions. Look for indicators such as job growth, population growth, low crime rates, and good school districts. Websites like Zillow, Redfin, and local MLS listings can provide valuable market data. Additionally, network with local real estate agents, investors, and property managers to gain insights into specific neighborhoods.

6. Build a Team of Professionals

Successful real estate investing requires a team of professionals to support you. Your team should include:

- Real Estate Agent: A knowledgeable agent can help you find and evaluate properties.

- Mortgage Broker/Lender: They can assist with financing options and securing loans.

- Real Estate Attorney: Legal expertise is essential for navigating contracts and regulations.

- Accountant/Tax Advisor: They can provide advice on tax implications and financial planning.

- Contractor/Handyman: Reliable contractors are crucial for property maintenance and renovations.

Building a strong team will help you make informed decisions and streamline the investment process.

7. Start Small and Scale Gradually

As a beginner, it's wise to start with a small, manageable investment. This could be a single-family home, a duplex, or a small multi-family property. Starting small allows you to gain experience, learn the ropes, and minimize risks. As you become more comfortable and knowledgeable, you can gradually scale your portfolio by acquiring more properties or exploring different investment strategies.

8. Perform Due Diligence

Before purchasing a property, conduct thorough due diligence to assess its condition, value, and potential for returns. This includes:

-Property Inspection:  Hire a professional inspector to identify any structural or mechanical issues.

-Comparable Market Analysis (CMA): Evaluate similar properties in the area to determine a fair purchase price.

-Cash Flow Analysis: Calculate potential rental income, expenses, and cash flow to ensure the property will be profitable.

-Review of Legal and Zoning Issues: Ensure the property complies with local regulations and zoning laws.

Thorough due diligence will help you avoid costly mistakes and make informed investment decisions.

9. Secure Financing

Once you've identified a property and completed due diligence, secure financing to purchase the property. Work with your mortgage broker or lender to finalize loan terms and complete the necessary paperwork. Be prepared to provide documentation, such as income statements, credit reports, and proof of funds for the down payment.

10. Manage Your Investment

Effective property management is crucial for maximizing returns and maintaining the value of your investment. If you choose to manage the property yourself, be prepared to handle tenant screening, lease agreements, maintenance, and rent collection. Alternatively, you can hire a professional property management company to handle these tasks for a fee. Regularly monitor the property's performance, address any issues promptly, and keep detailed records of all transactions and expenses.

11. Explore Investment Opportunities in Bangalore

For those interested in investing in real estate in Bangalore, the market offers a plethora of options ranging from super luxury apartments in Bangalore to upcoming luxury projects in Bangalore. The city is known for its high-end residential projects developed by some of the top builders in Bangalore. Investing in property in Bangalore can provide significant returns due to the city's rapid growth and demand for premium housing.

Conclusion

Getting started with real estate investment requires careful planning, education, and a strategic approach. By following these steps, you can build a solid foundation for your investment journey and work towards achieving your financial goals. Remember, real estate investing is a long-term commitment that requires patience, diligence, and continuous learning. With the right mindset and resources, you can successfully navigate the world of real estate and reap the rewards of your investments. Happy investing!

Lettings Agent vs Self Management

If you’re a landlord and not sure whether to self-manage or put a lettings agent in charge of your property, We’ve asked our fabulous lettings team to put together a list of factors to consider:

Time

How much time do you have? And how do you value your time? It takes our lettings team about eight hours of work to find tenants, another two to four hours per month to manage a property, plus five or so to end a tenancy – and that’s with all the systems in place.

Over a year-long rental at £1,000 a month, a 10% fee equates to £25 an hour – and if any problems arise, it becomes even cheaper. Unless you earn less than that, live nearby and have the time and energy to deal with boilers and break clauses, a good agent is a bit of a bargain.

If you own a ‘low-maintenance’ new build? Even with no repairs, there will still be admin and contractual issues. No matter how trouble-free you think your property might be, managing it well always takes time and focus.

Cost

Usually the main reason why landlords self-manage. You will save a fair bit in agent fees, but remember that these fees are tax deductible from your rental income so the might be less than you think.

Arms’ length or up close?

Doing viewings yourself could help you find a better tenant: unspoken clues when meeting them in person tell you much more than a paper reference. You can also build rapport, which will help you get the best out of tenant.

On the other hand, a skilled agent, like ourselves could get a higher rent and defuse any disputes because they’re at arms’ length. We also are well versed in asking potential tenants the correct questions to filter out anyone that is unsuitable for your requirements. You also might want to keep your details private. Plus, you won’t field the call about the broken boiler or leaking roof on Christmas Eve (as we have), nor will you have to deal with tenants who bother you with non-emergencies at 11pm (like the one who locked herself out, called in a panic to beg for keys, then got in – but failed to update the agent who had travelled an hour to her aid).

Control

No one knows your property as well as you do. Looking after it yourself lets you see maintenance issues first-hand, so you can make the right choices and use your own preferred tradesmen.

Enjoyment

Are you forever fixing things? Do you love leaping into action to solve a tenant crisis? If that’s you, you might enjoy self-managing even if it makes little sense financially. Equally, if you’re the hands-off type who hires a handyman to oil a squeaky door, it won’t be for you.

Precision (and patience)

It’s not particularly complicated to let and manage your property yourself. However, there are lots and lots of annoying little boxes to tick. (Hey, we’ve filled a book with them.) The consequences of getting it wrong can be serious. If attention to detail is not one of your strengths, you might be better off getting an agent who knows their stuff to do it for you.

Your situation could of course change – perhaps you’ll grow to have less time and more money. The right decision now might not be the right decision in five years. Whatever you decide, don’t underestimate how much time and effort it takes to manage well.
