Renters spend $5 on plumbing job

Latest from our renters. I know. Trite. All renters are like this.

Philip said the dryer was not hooked up correctly so he will fix that this weekend, plus I will send picture of the new house numbers. He bought the part needed to fix the master shower faucet. It only cost $4-$5 dollars so hopefully that little project stays little and does not turn into something more. Philip also fixed the main bathroom toilet flusher. It was very hard to push down. He bought a simple replacement part. He had to remove the whole toilet and work on it outside (I should have taken a photo) .....anyway, now it all works great!

Renters have to be cooking meth

Latest from our Craigs List house-renters: Axe murderers, swindlers, meth-lab technicians or just super-excited tenants?!

Holy closets! 10 closets have been wiped down, edge vacuumed all of them, shampooed the ones with carpet and painted all closet interiors a fresh white. They look fabulous! 

ed 3 photos. The carpets look great. Look carefully at the color difference in the attached photo with the shampooer.

We've also been busy this week cleaning and painting. I have attach

When I started wiping down walls in the office, I noticed colored paper was glue to wallpaper behind the shelf. I stripped the colored paper, scrubbed off the glue, primed the wallpaper attached to the plaster wall and painted the area with a color called: Rain Storm. It is a steel gray/blue. It looks crisp and clean. The attached photo shows the Rain Storm paint color better on the wall of the closet door, but trust me it looks fabulous behind the shelves too.

The last photo is Philip starting to prime the double-door closet so we can paint it all white inside. I'll send a photo of the finished closet soon.

This weekend we are moving some stuff in, doing cork floors and painting the yellow bedroom a soft white...as a natural-friendly color to appeal more to buyers, although secretly we are hoping we can somehow become your buyers as we are falling in love with the house and its energy.

All renters shampoo the carpets, right?

How on earth did I find these renters on Craigslist??

Been cleaning out stuff and cleaning walls, took ugly blinds down, sweeping floors, wiping down walls, vacuuming rooms, etc. Lookin' good! Do you want me to put those Ikea shelf units on Craigslist? Also, we shampooed all the carpets i.e. office, bedrooms and painted interior of closets white as some had stains on the inside walls. Looks awesome! Rock n roll.
