• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Morning Crew: Good Monday Morning Croots ☀️ | Eeffoc?

Did a little lawn work yesterday, and I guess I got heat exhaustion. Still don't feel great. Might be an early day.

Watching a buddy's dog while he's dealing with a family emergency. Went in this morning to let the dog out and took me a good 2 minutes to get her alert. I think she was having a seizure, but I thought the dog was dead there for a bit. Scared the shit out of me.

Gonna work on getting tenants screened for the rental. Had 15 applications. Because I didn't meet any of them, I am going to work on getting them ranked. Louisville Metro recently passed a law that you HAVE to take an application on a person, basically no matter what (there are a few exceptions...but you basically have to be a murder or cho-mo to be disqualified to apply). Attorneys are going full bore trying to catch people not doing this so they can sue.

Upside is, they still have to pass your screening process so it's a matter of disqualifying them. Partner said he felt comfortable renting to any of them. I'll rank em and he will send the link for them to do background/credit check.

The do-gooders still bitch at owners of properties without knowing what time and costs are expended in owning a property before, during and after renting.

I feel you on the heat. We went from wearing jackets to the 90's in what seemed like a couple of days.

Good luck with the tenants. Hope it all goes smoothly.

One of the guys on a real estate Facebook group posted a video yesterday of a trashed unit he just got evicted. Renter had not paid out of pocket for over a year. Lot of people showed their true colors during this Covid bullshit.

I've seen it often doing pest control in apartments/rentals. It's amazing that people live in that or allow it to occur. But, why not? If it's Section 8, all is paid for except about $25 they have to pay each month. The things I've seen in 30 years boggles the mind.
