Secured loans…
I was giving the landlady the rent check today, and she was telling me that they are thinking of having the whole porch re-done. Remember how it was vandalized last weekend? Anyway, she said that they are looking into secured loans to pay for this. Basically, this means that they’d be borrowing money against the house. Many homeowners do this, usually for this purpose…to pay for home improvements and repairs.
She could just have that doofy Brian dude go to Home Depot, buy a few new spindles, and have him fix it on the cheap. But she wants to get a more heavy-duty railing now, one that is harder to vandalize.
I still wish she could find the thugs who did this, and make them pay somehow. But nobody saw them do it, so we can forget about that. And her homeowner’s insurance doesn’t have much coverage for vandalism.
At least we shld have a much nicer porch now, when it finally does get done!
