Again, this woman called almost in tears one night (if that wasn’t an act…) about how the investors were coming in her office crying on her desk.
Anyway, the harassment by her continues. I got another packet in the mail 2 days ago in which she was pointing out that it’s illegal for me to participate in the son’s “rent skimming” behavior. The bottom line is my future is unsure here, because if the mother gets the property I don’t know if she will continue to rent to me when/if she finds out I didn’t pay rent for 2 months and still owe that amount of money. So, if she gets the property, she can evict. The clock is ticking. The notice of default became effect in September.
I cannot pay the son the extra $500 on top of the regular rent in catch-up payments. So, in order to protect me from him evicting, I’d need some type of agreement in writing from him that he will let me pay arrearages when I am able. I don’t think he will want to do that. He offered me a new lease, but do I really want to be pinned down to this place for any significant length of time? No, I do not.
Finally, the tenants next door to me make sick every time I think and or look at them.
Bottomline: My future is not secure here until I know the outcome of who wins: mother or son. Even then, the son cannot really afford this place, so he could sell anytime. He may take a loss just to get out now before prices drop anymore even though he tells me he will hold on to the property.
