  Where do Capitol Hill condo & apartment dwellers dispose of Christmas trees?

  1 0 You hauled it in, you can haul it out. Take it to one of the two transfer stations in the city - its free of charge through the 9th. Ballard and South Park. Svenska answered in Cleaning & Recycling about 1 year ago Answer, comment & read 6 more answers »

  0 0 Thanks! This is ultimately the direction we were headed. And I like the idea about the note - very fitting. Svenska commented about 1 year ago

  0 0 Well standard commission split is 1/2 of 6%, so she received 3% as payment for 3 months of work. And in that respect she received the commission from the seller, not us. We understand realtors are paid to deliver, but she went well above the call of duty in our view. So... yeah. We could be part of the "whatever, I'm paying your salary" crowd and not think twice - but we like to reward a job well done. Especially when we're ultimately benefiting from her hard work.

  When is the best time to mention that I can get a co-signer for an apartment?

  0 0 Be honest with your landlord from the beginning. (we're not all SOB POS's). If you think this information is important, then let them know when you submit your application that you have a co-signer in the wings. If a co-signer isn't needed, a landlord isn't going to ask for it or take advantage. There's no gain in adding a co-signer when not necessary, so nothing to take advantage of. And to touch on Tom's comment - if your history with landlords leads you to believe that the majority of them are SOB POS's, then look no further at yourself. You are 1/2 of every landlord/tenant relationship that you've ever been in. We deal with a LOT of people on a daily basis, and I can attest - if you start the relationship by being a SOB POS yourself, you're going to receive it back from your landlord.
