Wow, if you think cooking for your new mother-in-law on your first Thanksgiving as a married couple is stressful…try looking for a new home. We’ve been sorting through properties and companies over the last couple of weeks. There are definitely some turkeys in the bunch. And we’re only looking for a house rental.

Consider this. If you’re a property owner and you hired a company to manage and rent out your property, you’d expect the property manager to return calls and e-mail from prospective renters–especially if they were very much interested in the home. I won’t name the company that has completely failed on all levels…yet. Once we find a place, I will be giving you a list of turkeys and of those that were professional and reasonable. This in the interest of protecting other potential renters from the angst we’ve had to suffer.

Meanwhile, we’re still driving around looking for a good place to live, and a good company to back it up. Do you know of any in the Pocket/Greenhaven area?
