Terb Apartment!

[PDL007]

Has anyone thought about getting an apartment on a Timeshare basis.

For example: 15 people. Get 2 days a month. Share cost of apartment. Responsible for clean-up (sheets, etc).

It would be easier for afternoon appointments and cut down on Hotel costs.

What do you think?

Could just be 5, 10 or whatever.

I think an arrangement could be made.

 

[PDL007]

No interest?

Buy a little condo downtown, that is like having your own hotel room waiting for you.

No interest?

Is that you; tbill?

 

[PDL007]

NO. I'm not tbill. I was just wondering.

Thought it was a good idea.

Can't we just use Goober's Mom's place!!!!!!!!!

 

[holden]

I don't think it would work b/c

1) have to organize use(who wants sundays)

2) payment, trying to collect

3) what if some of the guys are dirty slobs, used condoms on floor

4) legal liability for who ever puts their name on rental contract

5) imagine sitting on couch and there's a wet spot, is it water?

Shared hotel a better idea?

I have always liked the idea of sharing a hotel room.
12 to 3 for guy #1
3 to 6 for guy #2

If two guys can trust each other, they can alternate on the payments.

Just checking, I wasn't sure, as he has different handles...

It is sound, but you need the right mix of people. Are you going to sign the lease?

Bon Chance!

In practice it might be hard to convince somebody to take a turn with cleaning and laundry, knowing what the facilities are used for.

Also the tenants might become worse clockwatchers than the SP's.

bare corporation

Use a bare corporation to execute the lease, but you'll probably have to pay a big chunk up front to make the landlord happy.

Or you could start out a week at a time:

A better plan would be to rent an apt downtown and rent it out per session for 10 bucks or so.
You make a bit of $$ and the dude doesnt have to pay so much for a hotel room.
If you can move customers in and out quickly you can make good money.

1) have to organize use(who wants sundays)
Draft or Lottery , then a rotation. Schedule made.

2) payment, trying to collect (depending on how many, Year in advance)

3) what if some of the guys are dirty slobs, used condoms on floor ( that would be very bad but guys must be responsible)

4) legal liability for who ever puts their name on rental contract (True, could have written agreement?) Ask our local terb lawyer

5) imagine sitting on couch and there's a wet spot, is it water? Plastic covers (old school furniture)LOL

It would only work if all parties agreed and lets face it business men.

It was only an IDEA. I've thought about renting an apartment myself. But could cut the cost if I had some guys. Could only be 5 guys. I doesn't have to be a $1700.00 a month condo. It could be a $900.00 apartment. $180 a month. 10 guys $90.00 a month.

Forget about it.

What if one of the dudes hides in the closet during your time.....and you hear giggling....it would be pretty disturbing seeing Cardinal Fang come out of the closet

...that would ruin it

agreed!

 

[teenbod]

I did

I just bought a Condo downtown at Harborfront.
Graet investment and private.

The wife dosen't even know!

forget the rent

I think the idea would run into problems with the Criminal Code, although on the other hand the chances of actually getting in trouble are probably low unless the other tenants figure out what's going on and complain to somebody.

WalMart encourages motor homes to park in their lots.
If that's too much, I bet you can get an old Econoline van for a hundred bucks and throw a mattress in the back.

A better idea is to just use an economical but clean motel room. Its quick private and no paper trail
