I usually have someone walk my roofs every other year to replace screws that are rusted like that. That definitely helps!! Jeanne Dube Solid Ground Storage 505 W US HWY 290 Elgin, Tx 78621

Thank you for voicing these concerns. I have always disliked new customer discounts from cable tv to phone systems that are cheaper than my long term rate. Sooooo not all of us approve or engage in this practice. I would suggest you look for the smaller or privately owned facilities. The pricing practices ...

Hi All I would agree with Paul to an extent. You should not give too much information however my experience was a little different. The appraisal district called me and told me that they were using Austin metrics to valuate my facility that is rural. At the time I was not fully occupied and I was forced ...

We have experienced this situation. Since the vehicle had no value except for junk we took ownership then had it towed by someone that could sell it for junk, cutting our losses and clearing our space. You could take ownership and then commence the sale also. Totally a business decision. Jeanne Dube ...

Our policy has been to never rent to someone unless they have title or bill of sale to prove they own the vehicle. However as you know mistakes happen. I would try to contact the owner on title and ask them to pay rent and retrieve vehicle. The only other option would be to evict the tenant and cut your ...

Hi Martin My leases are minimum of 1 month. We prorate the first month so everyone is due on the 1st. It’s easier to keep up with past dues this way. A tenant can stay 2 days to 20 + years. If they are in residence past the 1st they owe that month no matter what day they move out. Hope this helps! Jeanne ...

I tried several different auction sites until I found one that had more buyers in my area. There are several that are easy to work with and help you satisfy the legal requirements. Jeanne Dube Solid Ground Storage 505 W US HWY 290 Elgin, Tx 78621

I have just recently increased late fees to having 2 fees, one after the 5th, then a larger fee after the 10th. By splitting this fee up the tenants are not penalized the same for the length of time they are late. My fees for foreclosure such as newspaper ads are much higher than the cost of the service. ...

I had another thought. We call the cameras surveillance not security so you aren't offering a guarantee of security. Thanks, Jeanne

Hello It will be up to the powers that issue your building permit. I installed a fire hydrant when I built my facility in 2015 and this year am expanding with 2 more buildings. My city declared that I must have a 2nd hydrant on the other side of my building about 200 ft away from 1st. No fire hydrant ...
