it’s an issue between my family and the landlord. Well he isn’t the landlord anymore I guess. When he came over here to fix the water since it keeps going out like not having any water at all. I gave him the rent money after I gave him the rent money he told me I just want to warn u that I sold the place back to Matt and will. Now they are the landlords and Brian is just the maintenance guy kind of but he said we could still talk to him or what not about things going on and he said that will and Matt the new owners now well new but old are going to sell it to someone that hopefully will demolish the entire house that we have been renting for 2 years now.
