With Ben finally moving back here at the end of May, we are in the process of looking for a renter to take over our lease - our lease goes until Sept 1 (boo!). Since the property manager really doesn't care if we rent it or not, because we'll still have to pay if we can't find someone, they aren't the most helpful in trying to find a new tenant. Which brings me to posting the house on craiglist. I have gotten email about the house from the craziest people.
Here are a few quotes from emails - really think if this is who you'd like to have rent your place:
(please note the posting on the site lists a June 1 rental date and all the details of the place)
"I saw your apartment advertised on a classified advert on the craigslist.com and i want to rent it for my family,please let me know if it is still available for rent and the modalities for renting it.I will be arriving by May 1st with my wife and my nine years old daughter and i will be signing 1 year lease for this unit....We intend to move in by Ending of April."
- I think this is one of those money scams in a housing format. Sorry Dr. Gray, you're out.
"I have interest in renting it and will like to know some information regarding the property. Total amount needed for Move-In including deposit. When is the ideal Move in date?"
- How about you read my flipping posting!?! Sorry Julia, you're out too.
"Hi, Im just reach out to you for a moment. the current economic condition is so bad presently. i need to tell you that at the moment theres millions in gov't grants for americans at this time in your town (phoenix) for pretty much anything you can possibly imagine! phoenix breaking news make sure to look at it. These gov't grants never have to be repaid!!!"
- Patrick, was there a question in your email? I didn't think so. Delete.
Wow, if only we could get some ACTUAL responses I would feel better. Until then I'm out.

OMG. This makes me die laughing. Especially after hearing about Sarah's latest debacle with selling her couch on Craigslist too. SOOOO FUNNY. LOL. Loved the commentary!
