About her
I am a domestically-challenged-workaholic- nomad that's living my own fairy-tale and doing so on my own terms. I don't consider myself mainstream, as I have always went against the norm and live life by my own standard and personal values and not those prescribed by society.
I'm determined and driven to gain maximum experience from life. I seek adventure and discovery, if I won the lottery, i'd become a globetrotting backpacker. I have spent the last few years travelling and discovering amazing countries and cities. I have learnt lots about myself, the world and how I fit in it, im often asked how I cope as a south African in Britain and I think that's very simple ...I love my home back in South Africa, but I also love the fact that anywhere in the world can be home if you make it so.
I am an adrenaline Junkie always looking for the next thrill and I will try most things once, just to say I have. I've eaten duck embryo in Vietnam and jumped off bridges attached to a Bungee.
I have a 30 before 30 list, that I'm currently working my way through, I plan on Swimming with sharks in Cape Town and discovering Chichen Itza and the joys of authentic Mexican Tequila next.
My answer to "why are you still single?" Is simple... Anything less than soul stirring, crazy, unexplainable chemistry won't do... I believe that passion is one of the most motivating and important forces in this world and refuse to live my life without it.
Life doesn't have to be predictable and maybe that's what makes it interesting. I
im looking for the kind of guy that loves life as much as I do and has the energy to keep up with me ... question is are you that guy ?

Farah Tanis, Executive Director, Ex Officio, Black Women's Blueprint
I believe art has always provided us as a people, and particularly as women of the African Diaspora, an important venue for handling a myriad of cultural crises. Combined with a history of political activism, art has enabled us to galvanize others and organize ourselves to address poverty, violence, and other forms of interpersonal and state repression in societies around the world. Art has enabled us to make the invisible, visible, and to take joy in small and large victories. The intrinsic pleasures and stimulation of the art experience do more than provoke emotional and psychological arousal or sweeten one's individual life. Art within the context of Black Women's Blueprint and Mother Tongue Monologues has helped connect people more deeply and collectively to the issues confronted by Black women. Via our annual Mother Tongue Monologues, art helps to open all audiences to new ways of seeing Black women in all of their diversity--as powerful, as alive, as human.
Farah Tanis conceived of Mother Tongue Monologues in 2009. She is the producer and editor of this multi-media production and performance, steeped in transnational and Black feminism. Mother Tongue Monologues is a vehicle for communicating Black feminist praxis at the grassroots and for addressing Black sexual politics in African American communities. Farah Tanis has also been executive producer of such documentaries as "RECLAIMING PEACE" a documentary on the resilience of survivors of domestic violence and contributed to other such documentaries, like "TAKING A STAND: Women of Color and Community Empowerment" and "LET FURY HAVE THE HOUR", a feature length documentary that investigates the movement of world citizenship. Tanis has also developed several curricula on women, race and human rights.
Farah Tanis is an ardent human rights activist and advocate, has over 16 years of experience leading social justice movements, grassroots initiatives and organizational development and is currently the Executive Director of Black Women's Blueprint. She serves as Almoner for the Havens Relief Fund which provides emergency grants in New York City. Tanis currently serves on the Board of Directors of Right Rides which ensures women's safety in public spaces and serves on the Board of Haki Yetu meaning "Our Right" in Swahili, which works with survivors of Rape in the Congo region of Africa. She is on the Advisory Board of the New Americans Leadership Project which prepares immigrants for civic leadership, political participation and to hold political office. Tanis recently served as National Conference Coordinator and on the Host Committee for The Anita Hill Twenty Years Later: Power, Sex and Speaking Truth Conference.
Tanis' work began in 1995, with refugees living with HIV/AIDS and women in the New York City shelter system who had been victims of domestic violence and sexual violence. Tanis co-founded Dwa Fanm, meaning "Women's Rights" in Creole in 1999, and served on the Founding Board of Directors of Girls for Gender Equity until 2003. In 2004, Tanis chaired the advisory committee for the development of service policies for the Family Justice Center, of the NYC Mayor's Office to Combat Domestic Violence and in 2006 developed a multi-year collaboration with the International Human Rights Clinic at NYU's School of Law to support human rights research and advocacy on the intersection of violence, poverty and discrimination as it impacts black immigrant communities.
Tanis worked domestically to galvanize support in the Diaspora communities, raised funds and other resources to support the work of human rights defenders in Haiti who fought to implement legislation against sexual violence, making rape a crime in Haiti for the first time in 2006. Tanis worked with the V-Day movement to bring the Vagina Monologues in Creole to Haiti, and to the Haitian immigrant communities of NYC for the first time in 2007. As she transitioned from Dwa Fanm as its Executive Director in 2008, Dwa Fanm won its 11th Award in eight-years, a Community-Police Partnership Award, resulting from 6 years of forging relationships, and providing cultural sensitivity training at police precincts.
Tanis has a B.A. in Science from N.Y.U., an M.A. in Social Work from Fordham University; a Post-Graduate Degree in Family Therapy from Hunter College and is an alumni of Columbia University Business School's Institute for Nonprofit Management. Tanis is a 2000 Open Society Institute Fellow; and has received several awards for her work in the social justice, including a 2001 Union Square Award; A 2003 Everyday Hero Award; An 2004 Emigrant Award; A 2007 Extraordinary Woman Award, a 2007 Soroptimists International Award and two New York City Council Proclamation. Tanis is a 2012 U.S. Human Rights Institute Fellow.

Nora Freeman Engstrom, Sunlight and Settlement Mills,
Professor Nora Engstrom's article Sunlight and Settlement Mills is discussed in this online journal by University of Michigan School of Law Professor Scott Hershovitz.
Every year, I ask the students in my torts class whether any of them came to law school because they wanted to practice tort law. So far, only one has said yes. And she planned to join her father's personal injury practice, so that was something of a special case.
This is not surprising. An awful lot of my students do not know what tort law is, at least not at the start. And those that know what tort law is tend to associate it with the lawyers that advertise on late-night television. Though most first-year students do not know what they want to do, they do know that they do not want to be one of those lawyers, whom they take to occupy the bottom rung of a profession that is not held in all that high esteem anyway. It is a constant struggle to get my students to see that there is more to tort law than those late-night lawyers.
But it turns out that those late-night lawyers may not deserve the scorn that they get. In Sunlight and Settlement Mills, Nora Freeman Engstrom argues that firms like the ones that advertise late at night have developed practice models that achieve many of the aims that reformers have for no-fault accident compensation schemes. They deliver compensation cheaply and quickly, because they settle almost every claim and nearly never go to court. They resolve claims predictably and consistently, on account of cozy relationships with insurance adjusters that lead to a shared sense as to what different sorts of claims are worth. And perhaps most important, they increase access to justice, offering representation to clients with meritorious claims who would otherwise not seek lawyers or find ones willing to pursue their low-value claims.

"Access Bars" Testimonials
I have decided to start an "Access Bars" testimonial page as people just seem to have such incredible experiences during and after their "Bars" session.
I have also included one of my own testimonials when another practitioner ran my "bars". I really felt such benefit from the treatment I wanted to share this with others. People often suffer from competition nerves or pre-exam stress, and from my experience may benefit from a "Bars" session prior to taking part in competition or to help nerves before taking an exam. Enjoy the stories below.
"On the day of the Truth Matters conference in GlasgowI had quite a severe headache and I had been suffering with a cold for a couple of weeks at that point, and it was really beginning to drag on. As I felt so rough on the day my daughter encouraged me to have an Access Bars session as she had experienced such a wonderful shift of energy and healing during her Bars session that I thought it sounded like something I should try.
It was a wonderfully relaxing experience, and the whole thing seemed to pass by in a flash, many images passed across my mind during the session and it all felt very comfortable. Within a couple of hours my headache had gone, I felt much more alive than I had in the morning and by the next day, my cold had completely gone. I was quite astonished as I don't get sick very often but when I do it does seem to last way too long. This cold just disappeared in a flash.
I can highly recommend giving the "Access Bars" healing a try for whatever symptoms you have. Ultimately you have nothing to loose by trying it. I will definitely have more treatments from Jeni in the future, and I think if you do try it you will be as surprised and as pleased as I was."
Dean Rees-Evans
"I really enjoyed having my "Access Bars" session and I have had some fairly dramatic results actually…During my session I coud visualise you switching off a part of my brain and another bit being switched on. As the focus and intention during my session was on relationships, I wasn't expecting miracles but it now seems that "Access Bars" are more powerful than I expected. This last week i have come to some conclusions that almost every relationship in my life has become a compromise! I accept second best from people and I sell myself short. As you can imagine this realisation has caused a little unrest but I am positive I can make some real changes to my outlook as a result. Thank you (I think). I will let you know how my radical new philosophy works out!"
Jo at ASK
"Following my remote Bars session with May, I had the opportunity to play tennis for my team the next day, something I hadn't done for a couple of months. My performance was amazing. My tennis partner said"Your on Fire tonight".
This morning my phone rang and I picked up to hear the voice of my friend, Jeni calling me in Canada, long distance from Scotland. She told me that she would begin running my "Bars", as we had agreed the week earlier, in five minutes and reminded me to relax and enjoy the experience.
The previous week had been filled with stress and I had experienced an inordinate amount of physical and emotional discomfort as a result of it. My fear and stress manifested itself in the form of extreme fatigue, a sore stomach and a chronic cough.
The fact is, I have had an on-going battle with anger and fear. Over the years, I have struggled with my self and feelings of depression. I am very accomplished at hiding these things in order to work and be responsible and contribute to my community but sometimes I feel debilitated by my inner struggle as human being and require some respite from it.
This morning was one of those mornings. Yesterday my partner and I had a particularly busy day and I found myself becoming overwhelmed by all the people we were encountering. My social anxieties got the better of me. When we finally got into bed at the end of the night, I couldn't hold onto my emotions any longer and I shared with my partner, my longing to engage with people despite my fear of them. He, being the best and kindest partner listened and comforted me.
Then this morning Jeni called and told me that she was running my "Bars "for me. Even though we had arranged to do this the week before, the timing of her call felt quite magical. It was perfect timing and it struck me that there was a real kindness in the act of trying to help someone heal their mind in this way. Our minds are so forgotten and neglected in modern health practices. Jeni is filling this gap and I think that she is very brave to be doing so and perhaps ahead of her time.
I visualized Jeni working on my "Bars" in her home and relaxed completely as she did so. I allowed myself to let go: of the tension held in the muscles of my stomach, of the negative tapes that go round and round in my mind, of the lists of things that I should do, of the thousand ways in which I could be better. I allowed myself to wonder about the mysteries of my a-typical nature and where it might be pointing me. I allowed myself to imagine that perhaps the reason I am a-typical is because there is something in particular, based on my traits, that I have to do. "What if my differences are the answer to my puzzle rather than the obstacles to my success?" I asked myself. I thought, "What would happen if I just listened for a change instead of fighting?"
I fell asleep during the session and awoke two hours later. My heart felt lighter and my mind was calm for a change. I was thoroughly relaxed and I felt cared for. My husband and I talked quietly together for an hour or more. There was a joyful, blissed out feeling between us. Later, I felt famished and I made us a heaping plate of french toast slathered with butter and maple syrup. My morning was wonderful.
Thanks for being brave enough to tread in uncharted waters and share your experience and skill with others, Jeni!
I was fortunate enough to meet Jeni MacNab when I was going through a separation while living in Perth, Scotland. We began a dialogue about mind, health and spirit at that time and I have benefitted enormously from our conversations and exchanges over the years. I know from experience that Jeni is a gifted coach and pioneer in the area of body, mind and spirit. She is a true seeker.

If You Want To Live On Mars, You Better Be Able To Farm
NASA is actively researching how we to go about creating a human colony on Mars and the first step is farming for food. Unfortunately, growing food on Mars may be a challenge NASA underestimated.
Though research on the International Space Station shows that plants can in fact grow in microgravity, scientists aren't sure how the reduced gravity will affect crops only previously grown on Earth. Mars' surface receives roughly half the amount of sunlight Earth does, so we'd need a whole lot of extra light from a greenhouse-like structure.
And getting that light requires a great deal of power. NASA has been experimenting with the use of LED lighting to give plants the wavelengths they need to flourish.
"In terms of the systems engineering required, it's not an insignificant challenge," said D. Marshall Porterfield, Life and Physical Sciences division director at NASA's Human Exploration and Operations Mission Directorate.
That greenhouse would also have to be enormous. The more energy pressure inside a greenhouse, the bigger of a structure it would have to be.
"You don't have to inflate that greenhouse to Earth-normal pressure in order for plants to grow," said Robert Ferl, director of the Interdisciplinary Center for Biotechnology Research at the University of Florida. "Maintaining a full atmosphere of pressure is difficult on a planetary surface. You can take plants down to a tenth of an atmosphere and they'll still function."
Farmers on the planet would need to be able to protect themselves and their plants from radiation. Mars doesn't have a layered, protective atmosphere like Earth's, so the plants would be vulnerable to particles from space. And these particles would enter Mars through all the stuff we send from Earth.
"To maintain the infrastructure is the expensive part to grow plants, coupled with the need for redundancy if something fails," MacCallum said.
He went on to say that it looks like it would would take 15 to 20 Earth years to transfer all the materials needed to create our greenhouse/garden.
If it's going to take that long to transfer all that equipment, it might be more efficient to just ditch the farming idea and send the food over from Earth.
NASA has yet to figure out the best way to create a sustainable civilization on Mars, but scientists are very confident that its an achievement well within our reach.
"Every great migration in history happened because we took our agriculture with us," Ferl said. "When you learn to take your plants with you, you can not only go to visit, you can go there to stay and live."

(Updated) Grand Theft Auto Online: Maintenance Period
Posted on April 2 2014, 12:00am | Author: R* Q | Filed Under: Support, Social Club, Games
Update Jan 16 – We're happy to report this maintenance has now been completed and Grand Theft Auto Online is back up and running. Thanks again everyone for your patience.
Grand Theft Auto Online will be down for maintenance beginning tonight at 9PM Eastern Time through tomorrow, Thursday January 16th. We expect to be back up within 24 hours. Apologies for the inconvenience.
- on January 16 2014, 9:49amWe're happy to report this maintenance has now been completed and Grand Theft Auto Online is back up and running. Thanks again everyone for your patience and be aware that you will need to reboot the game in order to regain access.
Please also stay tuned for future Title Updates and fixes to be announced and visit the Rockstar Support site for information and to subscribe for updates on known GTA Online issues:
- 2 weeks, 4 days agoRockstar,
I've been on hiatus from this game for over 2 years because you people could not be bothered with updating your customers and fanbase on the status of Heists. The matchmaking before I left was atrocious, and quite frankly it's not gotten even 1% better since I quit. I bought this game digitally, so I wouldn't have to worry about an installation disc, and because of your disgusting excuse for a matchmaking system, I've spent almost all of about 6 hours failing my heist setups and having people leave my lobbies because your damn service TAKES TOO LONG, and sticks unskilled people with you. I'm sorry, but there's no reason a rank 1 motherf**ker should be getting an invite to the heist s**ts of person with a rank of 102! Was there any math involved in the making of that system or did you guys just cobble a bunch of s**t together and hoped it would work? Please! Please, find a way to make the match making system better. Even if it's only by a fraction, it needs to be better.
- 3 weeks, 5 days agoRockstar you guys are ---s u f**king take away my osiris and mymoney like I did some hack or some s**t I'm really about to break my f**king disc and playstation give me my money back

- on April 9 2015, 8:45pmHello, I own a ps4 and have had problems online since the game came out. I have cable internet that is hard wired to the consol. When I am online it is usually just my character alone , if I happen to transfer to any session with multiple people I get kicked out immediately saying there is an unknown network error and return to gta 5 story mode.. When I am doing a job with other people there is no problems with the connection and I can play thru, but it is very difficult to connect to a job with multiple players.. Any help would be appreciated, I love your game!
- on April 9 2015, 11:50amOnce again gta online is down for Xbox one and its always on my day off. This is the last time I buy anything from rockstar as I paid 60 dollars more than the s**t is worth.. I want my money back, your servers are absolute trash.

- on February 27 2015, 9:44pmI played on 360 and had many updates. Since game came out on One, no updates so I go back to 360, no updates. I hope you have a GTA6 coming because I am about done. I've spent about $1200 in game for money and such and with no continuing updates, I feel all is lost. Especially with everyone now having rocket launchers blowing vehicles up since they are suddenly so easy to get. Game is getting lame. Need some updates before the Heist crap to keep me and others playing. Otherwise... adios.
- on February 3 2015, 8:12pmThere is literally no change? Getting kicked off almost everytime I play (that is even if I am able to get online). When are you gonna fix this? Beyond ridiculous

Teen Mom
Teen Mom 3's Katie Yeager Is Moving to Salt Lake City — Is Joey Coming With?!
Katie Yeager is Wyoming born and bred, but this gal is ready to pack up her bags and start a new life — in Salt Lake City, Utah!
"If you guys didn't notice I changed my city :) I'm no longer a Wyoming girl #wyoprobs," Katie tweeted on January 31.
Katie's had a rough year of makeups and breakups with her baby daddy, Joey Maes, so we can understand why she'd want to get the hellz out of Wyoming. "I got a good job and house in slc so I am going there," she tweeted, adding "new job. New house. New Katie."
But is Joey coming with? Not so much. "just me and molli," Katie told a fan. Hmmm, we're not sure if Joey will be cool with his daughter packing up and leaving, so hopefully Katie isn't in for a bitter custody battle! Then again, the fact that she has a new job and a new house must mean Joey knows about her plans … maybe he's being understanding after all!
Do you think it's fair for Katie to take Molli away from Joey, or is she making the right move (literally, guys, literally)?

Alexandra wai "Lizzi" (ON Canada) - See all my reviews
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Roller Coaster Tycoon (Jewel Case) (Video Game)
Roller Tycoon is my only roller coaster tycoon game (I don't have 2 and 3)
I reconmend it if your trying to get a tycoon game because i have monopoly tycoon, mall tycoon but they are not as good as roller coaster tycoon! (Psss.....This is one of my favourite games!)
Now getting to the point in this game they give you a goal , your pak has to have a certain amount of people and a certain raiting in an amount of time if you complete it you get to play with another park if not you have to either try a different park or try again.( You can not complete the same park 2wice.
You get to build rides in different terains and it's just a wild ride.
I heard of this other game were you realy get to ride your rides and talk to your costemures, so if find out about this game please put in a review here.
Another think about roller Coaster tycoon is you can save your parks and even if you did'nt pess the goal you keep building and playing in your park!
5.0 out of 5 stars FUN FUN FUN,
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Roller Coaster Tycoon (Jewel Case) (Video Game)
I first tried this game when it came as a free CD-ROM in my cereal! (Back when cereal companies gave out cool things in the box). Some may complain about the graphics because computer games have evolved so much since this was made BUT... if you don't care about all the bells and whistles graphics have to offer this game is for you. The concept is clear and the controls are easy! This would be great for kids and kids at heart! Don't be put off by the appearance because once you start customizing your theme park, it will be very hard to stop! Maybe it's a female thing, but you get to garden! Plant flowers and food courts and walkways and decorate! Place park benches for people to sit and kiosks! You can name your own rides, choose the color of the paint and of course, name your own park! I swear you won't be disappointed and if you are, you won't be out $50 like so many games these days! Enjoy!

This review is from: Roller Coaster Tycoon (Jewel Case) (Video Game)
This game got me hooked on tycoon games. The second and third Roller Coaster Tycoon games arn't as good as the first. I recomend buying it if you're a first time tycooner. And, even if you're not, it's still a GREAT game to get.

At school we have weekly spelling words where we have to do word exercises. For the past few weeks we have had compound words. Compound words are two words put together. Last week's compound words I challenged myself to write a poem with the compound words that the whole of my grade was given. There were nineteen words and I wrote a poem. Here is my poem.
One day I went to the playground with my playmate.
We saw a rainbow.
It started to rain so we put on our raincoats.
I felt a raindrop on my tongue.
There was a roadblock because they were doing roadwork.
We went through another roadway.
I saw a sandbag it looked like sandpaper.
I also saw a sandstone.
I had some seafood.
I went on a boat and I got seasick it looked looked a mix between seaweed and a snowball.
I then saw a snowflake.
Then I saw a snowman, then there was snowstorm.
To my blogging buddies I challenge you all to write a short story or poem or even a comment writing back to me with the above compound words which are highlighted.

Vol. 17, No. 38
Monday, October 19, 1998
10/5-10/9 - 10 outbreaks: 4 gastroenteritis at food service organizations/restaurants
1 respiratory (Legionella), 3 scabies, 1 influenza-like illness (first of this flu season) 1 Group A strep. 10/12-10/16 - 3 outbreaks: 1 influenza-like illness; 1 conjunctivitis; and 1 scabies
Case report: This 68 year old man with a history of chronic active hepatitis B cirrhosis, renal insufficiency and development of lower extremity edema and mild ascites over the last two years presents with increasing abdominal girth, worsening lower extremity edema and confusion. The patient was recently admitted to an outside hospital with similar symptoms and concomitant fever. He was treated with a course of antibiotics, which were completed two days prior to the current presentation. Additionally, this patient was admitted to The Johns Hopkins Hospital three months ago with fever and worsening ascites and was found to have a spontaneous bacterial peritonitis that grew Streptococcus viridans on day four of culture. He was treated with a seven day course of IV cefotaxime to which he responded well. On this admission the patient was afebrile and the physical exam was notable for the following: marked abdominal distention with tense ascites; 4+ pitting edema of the lower extremities to the level of the hips; slow speech with a mini-mental status exam score of 12/24; and mild asterixis. Pertinent labs included the following: WBC 4.4 with a normal differential; Hct 31; BUN 27; Cr 2.4; AST 50; alk phos 122; INR 1.6. An abdominal paracentesis was performed and yielded 10 liters of fluid. Microscopic examination of the peritoneal fluid revealed moderate PMNs, but no organisms were seen with Gram stain. Aerobic and anaerobic culture bottles were positive at one day and preliminary identification showed Gram-negative rods. Two colony morphologies grew on blood agar plates and both were oxidase positive. Final identification revealed two strains of Pseudomonas stutzeri with distinct susceptibility patterns.
Organism and Laboratory Diagnosis: Pseudomonas stutzeri is an aerobic, nonfermentative, gram-negative rod with a polar monotrichous flagella. P. stutzeri is a ubiquitous saprophyte found in soil, water and hospital environments.
On sheep blood agar, isolated strains of P. stutzeri produce dry, wrinkled, tough, adherent colonies, usually light brown. P. stutzeri is identified using the following criteria: presence of oxidase, ability to oxidize but not ferment dextrose, ability to reduce nitrate to gas, growth on MacConkey agar, and demonstration of motility by polar flagella.
Clinical Manifestations: P. stutzeri is uncommonly isolated from patients and is rarely associated with disease. In most cases, isolation of P. stutzeri represents contamination or colonization in hospitalized patients. The most common reported sites of clinical isolates are from surgical wounds, blood, the respiratory tract, and urine. Several cases of bacteremia were reported in patients undergoing hemodialysis and P. stutzeri was subsequently isolated from the dialysate in the dialysis machine. The ultimate source was the deionized water used to form the dialysate. Contaminated intravenous fluids have also been implicated in P. stutzeri septicemia in hospitalized patients. If a number of isolates appear at the same time in a hospital setting, the possibility of contamination with water or soap should be considered and pursued.
P. stutzeri is usually considered a contaminant, but in rare cases the organism can become an opportunistic pathogen when host defense mechanisms are weakened. There have been several case reports of community-acquired pnuemonia, one associated with empyema and one case of bacterial meningitis due to P. stutzeri. In each case described the patients had underlying conditions or predisposing risk factors for disease such as chemotherapy, COPD, chronic liver disease, or HIV infection.
Treatment: P. stutzeri is highly susceptible to antibiotics and clinical response to treatment with antibiotics effective for other Gram-negative bacteria is generally good. In vitro studies have shown that isolates of P. stutzeri are generally susceptible to aminoglycosides, carbapenems, monobactams, antipseudomonal penicillins, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, and third-generation cephalosporins, and are variably susceptible to ampicillin.

A. Interview at least three managers to get a feel for whom is offering the services you feel most important to you.
The basic services are often the same, but placement fees, experience level with tenant screening,renovations, and up and down markets can impact your listing a great deal. Often if its a large company there will be a person who has never seen your home answering your questions. The longer they have been doing it the more likely they are to have encountered all the issues and solved them before.
A. Ask how long they have been doing this field, many agents have turned to management during the sale slow down and will leave the field after it picks up. You want someone who is is long term.
Management Companies have 17 ways to make money off their owners and tenants. Don't only ask for a monthly management fee, but also seek out the other 16 fees as well. For a complete list visit our blog.
A. How long have you been in this field?
How much experience do you have with homes in this area?
Do you hold any certifications?
How do you get my funds to me?
What do you charge when the home is empty?
What is the average time on the market for your homes?
What is the average turnover rate of your tenants?
A. Developing long term relationships with our tenants and owners! We are more than a business we are a family!
A. What is your management fee is the most common question from potential clients. This illustrates owners lack of knowledge about property management and ways companies operate and make money. Almost every property management company charges a 100% listing fee and low monthly flat fee for monthly management. In this scenario the company wants the tenant to leave and not stay long term. There is no incentive to find a long term tenant. At Holub Realty and Property Management we want long term rentals so our fee structure is not based on continuous change in tenants.

Amenity-rich, the master bath showcases a corner soaking tub, oversized shower and dual sinks.
