    Excited to attend ACRES Ontario!

    Yes, ACRE sells out every year. It is always very popular. Contact the REIN office this week and see if they can work something out with you. No guarantees, but it couldn`t hurt to try. Waiting until the 17th may be too late. Good luck. I hope things work out for you. Cheers!

    Do you Tweet?

    Hey Chris, I`m on Twitter! I`m "Carla Johnson." For those new to Twitter, Twitter is a fairly simple site that helps people stay connected.

    Midnight Move

    I wish the tenant we are evicting right now would do just that. She is insisting on going to the board, costing us a good chunk of cash and not paying any rent in the meantime. 2 years ago a family did just that on us. At first I stormed around googling their names, determined to track them...

    Am I too nice?

    Lucas, Issue the N4 immediately every time rent isn`t paid. As you are already seeing, delaying things just slows the inevitable down. You can still be a kind person and be clean about your business. He can not afford your unit. He needs to find a place within his budget. You may want to ask...
