Because I wrote an entry last night, there is nothing to write about this morning. We will be signing loan documents at 1:30PM today. We are waiting for movement on the topo survey in regard to comments made internally. Do topo surveys get recorded? I still need to get closet doors for the newest tenant.…

Not a lot on which to report. Jim, I love him, has been a little frustrated with the HELOC lender. He keeps asking me for items or postpones the signing. Currently, we are scheduled for tomorrow at 1:30PM. When I slack in the morning, as I did today, the entire schedule gets thrown off and…

I fixed the leaky faucet after far too many trips to Home Depot. The tenant sent us a video of the leaky faucet just so we could eliminate any BS requests. It was legit. I took a look in-person, and it was leaking from inside the body. I went to HD and picked up a…

The new tenant is all moved in. She noticed the kitchen faucet was leaking and sent me a text on Saturday evening. She instructed me to please fix it ASAP. It had a very demanding tone for a non-emergency. I showed my wife the text and she went Ricky Ricardo in my ear. I’m not…

I have not heard anything in regard to the ROS being recorded. I introduced Lyla, the architect, and Chad with the survey firm that will being doing the topo for the duplex. Chad asked if it was OK if they started work based upon the notes from the County on the ROS and I gave…
