    Can I bill tollways for my time?

    Okay so I did a little googling: Texas incorrect plate reads, don't know why they won't look at pictures etc. like they did for me. Based on this one, I'm glad I don't have my plates tied to TXToll: Woman Battles NTTA Over Incorrect Charges – NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth More incorrect Texas plate...

    Can I bill tollways for my time?

    Correct. No possibility. I see these cars daily. I know where my family is. The mail goes into the same pile and I deal with it. If I don't then the pile gets bigger. Houston is 572 miles round trip. San Francisco is 3,398 miles round trip. Austin is 422 miles round trip. I'd notice the sudden...

    Can I bill tollways for my time?

    Thanks for the great response. A followup question: Regarding your (1) and (3), in this case, State law would appear to have involuntarily locked me into a contractual obligation that I have no choice to but to pay or untangle. The penalties, which I also did not agree to, are not just fines...

    Can I bill tollways for my time?

    Okay, I get it, it's not easy or conventional. They're big, I'm small. I was looking for something a little more constructive. If a neighbor damages my fence with their chain saw while trimming their tree, I can send them an invoice for repairs, right? If a city mows my lawn because I didn't...

    Can I bill tollways for my time?

    Hello everyone, I just had an interesting thought: Can I bill a tollway for my time untangling their mistakes? TLDR near the bottom. The long version: We are in the DFW area. My kid's car, not too long after we bought it, incurred a toll in the Houston area. He had never taken it outside...

    Potential tenant with annuity income and PoA

    Followup: Long story short, the retired applicant had a medical issue and so all applicants had to pull out. We ended up with a different tenant that is the best tenant ever, keeping the rent paid on time, the house clean, yard maintained, etc. Thanks everyone for your help!

    Potential tenant with annuity income and PoA

    I agree with your definition, and also agree that I'm renting to the Principal, not any Agent of the POA. At the same time, if it becomes necessary that I have to work with the Agent for whatever reason, I may not be able to learn anything about them, including but not limited to their identy...

    Potential tenant with annuity income and PoA

    I hadn't thought of asking for the last two. Great suggestion! Me too, but the wording in the application only indicates annuities as the income source. I agree, and this one is above 800. I agree entirely. To be clear, I wasn't looking at this applicant as [old therefore I don't want to...

    Thanks adjusterjack! That is the type of answer I was looking for.

    Potential tenant with annuity income and PoA

    I appreciate the responses so far. Maybe I have set the wrong impression. I can't go by a feeling that a tenant's income stream is adequate if I have zero documentation of it. At the same time, I want to be fair in accepting or denying an applicant. While doing this, I don't want to put myself...

    Potential tenant with annuity income and PoA

    I have a house up for long-term rental, and have a couple of questions: 1. An applicant lists no recent employment history as they are a senior citizen and have been retired for a while. Their credit score is excellent. Their income is listed to be covered by annuity income. I have no problem...
