miZZme | Do you think the landlord will pick us to move in the house???? read? |
well we looked at the best house, 4 bedroom in country secluded, huge house very very nice fenced in yard and all....
its 600 month+ utilities. we told him we could give him it all upfront in cash...
he said he would make a decision by monday- im freaking because we need this house its 45 minutes closer to our jobs and its so great.
THE THING IS- we only have 1 child and i kind of think, that the landlord thinks we may not need a 4 bedroom. i duno though?? he didnt say anything he said we could make one room a computer room. ..
myhusband makes 2300+ a month been at job 3 year, i make 1800month and been at job 1 month but its going great. plus we have 9000.00 in savings with nothing to use it for besides this home...
would you rent to us? do you think he would rent to us? our current landlord will give him a good reference???
HE SAID 20 PPL SO FAR looked at it and only 2 filed out applications. is that good?
ANY ADVICE?? should i call him? i duno i wan tit |

Sounds like you will be a good match for the landlord. b/c you and your husband can make the rent payments. Landlord's don't typically care what you will do with those bedrooms, as long as you dont destroy their houses. What the landlord cares about in selecting a tenant is their background. DO you have good credit? They also have to determine if you can afford the rent. A landlord does not like to evict people, it costs them money and a lot of hassle to evict people for non payment and then having to pay more monies to fix their homes in order to lease their home to another tenant.
Offering cash was also a good sign of faith for the landlord. The landlord needs time to evaluate each applicant, and check their backgrounds. SO, I don't think you should call him/her just yet. GL |

Not to burst your bubble, but if it is that great why is it so cheap?
How well did you inspect this place?
It's not your landlords business what you do with extra bedrooms.
I hope it works out for you. |

I think you're a good match for him. Fewer people/kids is usually preferred (provided they are not bound by some kind of law) because this usually means less damage to his property.
2 applications is actually very few.
I usually don't like those "I'll will make a decision by Monday". (How hard is it to pick between 2 applicants, c'mon?) It means there is nothing wrong with you or your application, but he advertized somewhere else for a higher price and hoping to get someone for a higher price and now is just buying himself some time.
I had a landlorn string me like this for 3 weeks (!). I filled an application for $650, she ran a credit check and just kept postponing and postopning and then said, "I pick you, you're my top choise" and gave me a lease to sign for $700. Her argument was "I found someone who is willing to pay $750" I turned down the deal even thoug I liked the place.
Stay positive, but keep looking at classifieds. |

Family status is a protected class under law, so if you are refused this place just because you have one child, regardless of the number of rooms in that house, they would be violating the Law. |

at 4,100.00 gross a month income - start packing cause he is gonna rent it to you and the rent is cheap . Where i live 2 bedroom apartments go for $$2,000.00 a month and up . If you have 9,000.00 in savings you should look at buying a house for the tax benefits and plus what you are saving in fuel costs you can afford a home easy unless you have bad credit . |

I would rent to you. You sound like stable people...and who cares if you only have one child...there could be more on the way. I wouldn't think he would even consider that. He should be concerned whether you're going to pay your rent and whether you will take care of his property. Good Luck! |

If you have decent income and money in savings why rent when you can buy?
Tough to say what the landlord will decide. There are so many factors that are out of your control. You'll drive yourself crazy thinking about it.
Don't call him. He said he'd give you an answer by Monday. If you start bugging him now, he may think that you will be a pain in the butt as a tenant. |
