That would be the logical assumption but my mom had a house here that she wanted to sell, and offered a former bishop a lease w/ an option to buy, they had $10K up front for the down, by the time all was said and done, their perfect renters trashed the house to the tune of about $40K, and they skipped town owing her over $30K just in rent, nevermind the house damage. So that kind of has me real leary. And Utah is going down hill fast, especially Utah County. I can't believe the places that were available for rent, they were disgusting. Totally trashed run down drug neighbor hoods were charging $800 a month for rent. I think we are going to have to end up listing with an agent, which makes me just plain ill. We paid on that mortgage for 4 years, and an agent will walk in, sell it, and get $5K and we get nothing. Nice. If it weren't for these jackasses that we sold it to in the first place, that would have been our $5K, plus we wouldn't have lost another $2K in paying mortgages and rent! Sometimes I just really hate people.
