Sorry to hear that @Luvsmyfam   It’s too bad you have that kind of landlord.  Life is tough enough without that.  I hope you can find something better. Said a prayer for just that.

@vickiegaye 

 

Welcome to the boards 💐

 

Some great information here but bottom line you have to be happy where you are in life including your home.

 

They have some beautiful over 55 gated rental communities here.  I toured the latest ones $1243/mth, 1253 sq ft., 2 baths, 2 beds & single garage.

 

Very tempting to me as once I'm "alone" I don't want the responsibility of maintaining a home. At least, this is how I feel after taking over all maintenance since my spouse is no longer able to do even the small things☹️

 

Good luck with your decision.
