About Me

North Georgia Gal

Where to Begin...it is hard to believe that it has been 9 years since I started this Blog. You guys have always been here supporting me and cheering me on.

I am in the process of refinancing my LOC into a mortgage, rolling my credit card debt into it. Will probably then close all of my credit cards after that.

I still have my budget in place for a couple of months out, but I still have to make changes to it.

I hope to sell my house in about 6 months, and move closer to my kids, about an hour away. I will still commute to work because it would only be about 40 minutes. But this can't happen until my responsibility to my mom is done, she is close to moving in with my niece, but who knows when that will happen.

Changes to Budget

December 21st, 2011 at 11:19 am

I have had to make some major changes to my budget due to the renters not paying rent. I don't know what I am going to do the first of the month. My mom told me that she thought I did the right thing by giving the renters more time since it is Christmas and all. I hope she still feels that way when I have to hit her up for money on the first of the month.

Have to take my daughter Christmas shopping tonight plus pick up some groceries for my mom. Probably won't get home until after nine. So much for a relaxing evening.

What kind of changes did you have to make to the budget?

I had to move stuff around and put stuff off. It sucks.

I'm sorry. It does suck and it happens a lot. Maybe it is an inherent problem with this type of property -- people who rent trailers tend to be the people who don't have any money.

Does the property net the yearly profit that makes it worth all this stress?

North Georgia Gal, are these the same renter you had before or are these a new ones. I thought I read that you got new renters?

Hi North Georgia Girl,

I've enjoyed reading your blog, starting from the beginning. I do have one observation/comment for you concerning your properties. It seems that you were doing really well until you moved into your new property but because of renters that are incapable of fulfilling their obligations, you're put in a tight spot over and over. Have you thought of putting your rental property (or even your main property) on the market and trying to sell in order to alleviate this stress for you and get back to making the kind of progress you were before the move?
