I've learned a lot about storage from your site. I just hope more and more people are getting more and more prepared--it can't hurt, and it will definitely help if/when hard times come.

I was just thinking it would be better to raise the rent or cut hours than to foreclose because of the expense of maintaining multiple mortgages or shutting down a business. Thanks for another perspective--you're right that it would be better to get something than nothing in terms of rent, as a landlord. I hope that none of this happens to anyone, but I like to prepare for the worst while hoping for the best.... :) I appreciate your comment!Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08264276199843769399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1859227664304693752.post-55445252375636164092008-11-05T16:21:00.000-07:002008-11-05T16:21:00.000-07:00Just posting a tiny bright note... some landlords ...Just posting a tiny bright note... some landlords are like me: we don't make as much with the rent as our mortgage, but we have good, steady, reliable renters and we're not going to raise their rent simply because taxes go up. You need to remember that SOME landlords simply have a second house because of some life change, and they're not trying to get rich.<BR/><BR/>After all, if a renter LEAVES, often the homeowner will be in a world of hurt. And with more and more homes sitting empty, there are more people who would be willing to take ANY rent rather than none.<BR/><BR/>Of course, this might just be in our massively over-built and over-priced area. ;)It's mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02030081794655766175noreply@blogger.com
