Good news. Son started school today. He has two senior classes and 2 classes he keeps flunking. Keeping fingers crossed he graduates this year. He also started working at the university.
The mother and daughter did not take the basement apartment. She wanted carpet and we put the laminated wood and she wasn't happy. The x's mother gave my son three super large Persian rugs for the basement. Gotta keep the "student's" toes warm. So far, everyone is happy.The basement is rented and the two bedrooms upstairs are rented. They are all students from the university and all deposits which equals their monthly rent has been collected.. yeaaah.. and September's rent from most has been collected. Thinks my son wised up and made sure he collected deposits and rent.
