Until recently, I owned a rental house in Jacksonville, FL. I did my best to keep the locale in nice condition. Over the years, I updated the roof, windows, water furnace as well as Heating as well as A/C system. I added a security system, exterior lighting as well as smoke alarms. I hired professionals to paint the interior as well as exterior as well as spent countless hours on the landscaping, but unfortunately, I ended up with renters who did nothing however complain. They were not glad with the water pressure, appliances or lavatory fixtures. They wanted a dishwasher as well as a modern washing machine. Whenever I would head over there to mow the lawn, there would be garbage littering the grass. Although there was a no pet policy, I was sure they were keeping at least two cats. They gradually started paying the rent later as well as later every month; Eventually, they stopped paying altogether. When I sent an eviction notice, the situation turned ugly. They were furious with me. I had to involve the local police. Once the renters moved out as well as I got a look inside the rental property, I was shocked. They had punched holes in the drywall, broken windows as well as allowed mold to flourish. There were open containers of food, which drew in cockroaches as well as rats. The worst problem was that they poured cement down the drains. It was a deliberate act of retribution. Trying to repair the disfigurement would have cost me a fortune. The house was not able to be lived in or sold in its condition. Since I was unwilling to go through the work, expense as well as hassle of restoring it, I decided to contact a money condo buyer. I found an online contact form that resulted in a money offer from a local, Jacksonville dealer. They handled everything for me. It was a large relief.
