Court Case Results

So, after all the worrying, the tenant didn't even show up for court this morning. This usually means that we get an automatic judgement.  The judge is going to figure out how Kae can manage to get the money we are owed (4 months rent! + court costs).  It may involve attaching their paychecks.    Of course, this doesn't mean that they are gone from the apartment.  In 10 days we file for possession and if they are not gone within 10 days after that, we can change the locks and sell all of their stuff.  This is a little scary. We've never actually thrown anyone out before. We really don't feel bad about the guy that we believe is causing all of the trouble, but he lives with his girlfriend and her teenage son, and that does bother me a little. We will have to see how it goes!

Closing on the house that we will be flipping today. Started getting organized for the yard sale, and met with our HVAC guy to get an estimate on the furnace, which will have to be replaced.  Also found out that we won't actually be tied into the property for 90 days like we feared.  It turns out the 90 clause is just for short sales, not for general sales or foreclosures.  That is a big help because we are hoping to turn it around in about 60 days.
