Good luck to you on the situation. If you're patient enough, buying a foreclosed property may work out. Just know that in many situations, a bidding war happens and you end up paying close to market.

 

Move. Just do it. Your quality of life will be so much better.

We (my wife, toddler son and I) lived in a decent neighborhood bordering on the ghetto for a couple years. Over the last few months of our stay there, the ghetto enveloped our place. Nightly shootings, drug deals, sketchy people wandering through our property... I didn't feel safe working under my car in the garage unless I had my Glock with me under there. I don't even want to think about how much I worried for my family's safety there, let alone my nice cars.

Needless to say, we moved and we pay more for where we live... and it is absolutely worth it. Now the worst thing I have to worry about is my neighbor's 10 year old forgetting to return my son's razor scooter when he borrows it.

 

I agree....I hate poor people, lazy people, ghetto people, etc etc etc. There is no excuse for being a leech on society.

 

You need to move. Plain and simple. Also why don't you have renter's insurance? If you have 50K of stealable stuff, then just get renters and take pics of EVERYTHING you own, keep receipts and stash it somewhere safe. Renter's insurance is pretty cheap to. Maybe 10-20 a month? Especially in an area that you just described, I wouldn't think twice about it....

Good luck.

 

I do have renters insurance actually.. Its $139.xx per year. I just pay it yearly.

The point is is that I dont want to be caught in the situation where I come home to a battered/raped girlfriend and my shits all gone. Renters insurance doesnt protect her or me.

Besides, It would be a year before I replaced all of my stuff. Sheesh.

Regardless, I have insurance. I just would rather not come home to all my stuff gone knowing her son and 2 blacks are selling it for crack. I shouldnt have to worry or come home to that situation because she brought it here.

Im going to refer her to Scots housing. Hell know how to deal with this bitch!

BTW - I got a voicemail from the landlords sister. She said that her brother said not to bother with looking for a new place because hes most likely going to kick her out when he gets back. If she confronts me, to tell her to "shape up or ship out". That the last thing they want is for us to leave.

I forgot to say that when the bitch was screaming at me, she mentioned that she didnt even sign a lease yet. So who knows whether or not shes even paying for this place upstairs. I bet im scaring the landlords sh!tless by saying im moving out over someone who isnt even locked into a lease yet!!

I should get something out of this now that I think about it... He should build me a garage.. Yes, a garage..

-Dustin

PS - Thanks for all the replies guys, I really appreciate it. Im going to see what happens when they get back this weekend. If one more thing happens, its either her or me. If we shady people up there after her, Im gone. Even saying that though, I still feel like maybe I should just move and KNOW that noones going to be moving upstairs, cause I own upstairs. Ill own the whole house! Itll atleast be in a nicer place too.. I dont know what to do.

 

Yeah figured you might have renters, but understand about the gf. For that reason alone I'd pick up and move. But if they get her kicked out then maybe you're ok. But if that area in general has a lot of these psycho's living around there then you probably should start looking in other places.

 

Move out . Break your lease. The landlord will not come after you to collect rent. It's just too expensive to go through the legal process.

You also mentioned you have the money, and come from a wealthy family. WHY are you staying there?

I think any sane individual who CAN move out would have without dealing with all the BS you mentioned..................pack up, leave, and screw the security deposit.

I would let your landlord know about the situation. If he agrees and files a eviction process (~3mo )on the other tenant, then wait it out. IF he does not indicate that he will take this major step ASAP..........MOVE. It's simple.

Maybe next time, hogman will try to put a cap in her, but will hit you in yo' ass through the wall

 

do not get a gun, you are not in TX its just not worth the complication in your life to have to shoot someone. as stated in a previous post get renters insurance.

if you move, interview you new neighbors before hand. even this dosnt insure success tho.

consider putting the sportbike inside the house for the winter, alarm for the car.

seriously, is that necessary? i'm sure the women on this board don't care for distasteful remarks such as this.

I've called the popo 50x over the past 6 years. I've even called the father at work when she broke a window, to get in the parent bedroom to steal some stuff.
