Thank goodness its Friday

Its Friday, usually the wind down to the end of the week.
But not today, the phone hsnt stopped, seems the frost we hd last night has sent my tenants into meltdow

To top off my my morning I have a number of rents that are now late and as always the calls to chase this envoke some wonderful storis from tenants as to why the haven't, can't or won't be paying their rent.
My favorite so far is "well its nearly christmas, I had to buy a lot of presents, its ok though the landlords' loaded right so he won't miss it just this month"
Why do tenants assume their landlords are all millionaires? Actually this poor landlord relies on the rent to pay the mortgage, but this info falls on deaf ears.

I ring the council to chase housing benefit payments that are now also overdue, I am told by a rather confused young lady, that they "have a back log so some rents won't be paid til after xmas" great, I wonder if that line will work if I don't pay my council tax "sorry I've got a back log of other bills"
.

Once upon a time.......

Once upon a time, many years ago a young girl embarked on her journey to build her career in property, little did she know it would take over her life and become one of the most interesting choices she ever made..........

Well yes that was me over 15years ago, green around the gills and quite sure i'd be a millionaire by Christmas, but how wrong i was.

The industry has changed so much over the years and it would have been a good idea to have started this blog way back then, if blogging had existed, but we didn't even have Blackberrys back then....

This blog will follow me along my daily working life, i'm sure there will be some laughs, some tears and no doubt some tantrums and dramas, I hope you find it entertaining.

All names and addresses will be changed for obvious reasons :)
