yeah i know! i was looking for something more accesible and local.

We’re super close to yogaville…. If you want the real deal

Where is this?

Yep, was at VCU. Started drinking early that day to go watch the main event. I remember how hot it was even blocks away

I fucking hate renting, but I’m only 9 months out of college so the idea of buying is about 5+ years out at least

Edit: also, tbf, for the square footage / location / amenities/ the market it’s expensive but could’ve been worse based on the searches we were making

Those condos were crazy expensive when they opened last summer.

His incredible reading of "The Rat of the Highway" is legendary in my house.

I’m scared now, I live in the condo style apartments in Libbie Mill, have a feeling the jump is going to be equally insane and they likely won’t entertain a reduction request. I straight up would not be able to afford a 20% increase. In truth I thought even moving in it was a little out of budget, but my GF loved it so here we are.

Yikes. Mines coming up in august, that doesn’t bode well for me… my rent is already ridiculous. Might consider moving if the jump is that high…

I was speaking with someone last night who told me they toogot a renewal reduction after speaking with the property mgr at PQ but they would not entertain that at Wellsmith.

I lived in Lucky Strike facing south for a bit. I loved the view but the apartment was always hot. I only had to turn my heat on once or twice in the couple years I lived there and that was after several cloudy cold days in a row. I think between the bricks absorbing the suns heat and the giant windows it was a bit like a brick oven/greenhouse. I complained time and time again and they would come out and “service” my A/C but sometimes it would run non stop and struggle to keep it below 75*F even in the spring and fall.

It’s not about outcome. It’s about what’s right.

Quints have no business in a busy department. I know that there is varying opinions of them, but small cities and slower departments is where they belong.

That was an absolute flop for RFD.

ah yes because having no rules has worked out great in the past. The early 1900s tenement housing was such a high point in our nation.

I was living on the 900 block of Grace above Absolute Art at the time. We noticed dark gray clouds outside like a bad storm was coming, got up to look out the window, and realized the dorms were on fire.

We turned 900 block into a party. Lots of our friends showed up, the cops had the roads blocked off, and we all just watched the shit burn to the ground while we skateboarded around and had mass chills on the stoop.

Embers were blowing everywhere and setting roofs in Carver on fire, we were somewhat concerned places on Grace would start catching, but that didn't happen.

This was Old(er) Grace. No 5 story buildings built down the block like it is now...Little Ceasers, Vito's Pizza, Mr. Submarine, Panda Garden (I think it was still there, could have been Panda Veg by then), Ipanema was there already, parking lots, homeless people, pissy alleyways...reminds me of home...grandma's house biscuits and gravy just thinking about it.

929 was the Nancy Raygun at the time, iirc, and Def Jux was having a showcase play that evening. Jean Grae, C Rayz Walz, Mr. Lif, and the Perceptionists were playing. After all the excitement died down that night, just popped over and enjoyed a fantastic hip hop show with the homies.

So basically this was in the top 10 most memorable, neat days of my life lol. I think I've still got the physical newspaper from the day after somewhere.

I ignore all of those lights down boulevard. Especially turning onto Cary. Fucking stupid

There shouldn’t be laws dictating private agreements other than what’s agreed to is enforced and doesn’t have negative externalities on a third party.

If somebody’s property is suddenly worth more due to xyz reason, they should have the right to charge what they want for it just like any renter should have the right to refuse to rent the property

Gumenick tried to raise my rent by 20%, I set up an appointment with the property manager to discuss and they emailed me later that day offering a 6% increase instead

I'm flexible on the bathroom, but I've been working on my cars on my back in the grass in my backyard for 3 years so it's time for some walls and a lift🤣

Lived there for 8 years, loved where I lived but people say some areas of it are kinda rough. Great walk-ability to the fan, Texas beach, and Byrd park. Every neighbor I had was friendly, plenty of parking. Just not paying the prices that dobrin is charging, and they seem to own all the rentals in the neighborhood

It's the garage that's going to be the issue imo. And possibly the second full bathroom.

How do you like Randolph? I was thinking of getting a place by the Jones park.

Dobrin bought the house we were renting in Randolph, rent went up $900, or 60%. We did not renew the lease
