Quotables
“It’s different like you could read a book or study it, I was watching these shows to study them so that I could look in the background and see what was happening.”
“They like the living style better because they have more natural light. They were happier tenants, they were more respectful, they always pay the rent on time – I never had an issue in a vertical split duplex.”
“For me, I was always looking at what is the highest and best use of my time and my staff’s time, and where we can be most efficient with our costs.”
