The tenant was on Section 8 housing and renting through the Portland Housing Authority . Missing screens, broken windows, grease, animal urine, doors ripped off the hinges cigarette burns on the floor - this is just some of the damage you can find at 44 Sawyer Street, owned by landlords Paul and Cyndi Taylor. Found on the ground:   Cigarette burns on bedroom floor:   These sights greeted them after their tenant of 11 years moved out. The landlords say they had a no-smoking rule in the apartment. They also say the woman was allowed one cat, but had multiple dogs as well at one point. "I would come in[to the apartment] any day if there was a pr

WOODBRIDGE, Va. — One person is charged with intentionally setting a fire in Woodbridge on Saturday. Fire crews were called to an apartment in the 15700 block of Tassleford Lane off Cardinal Drive about 5:56 a.m. Saturday for a report of a fire. As crews arrived, they saw light smoke at the four- story apartment complex . The fire, which occurred on the first floor, was contained by a sprinkler system, said Prince William fire and recue Battalion Chief Curt Brodie . With the fire out and building ventilated, the fire marshal’s office investigated the blaze and determined the fire was intentionally set. Timothy Michael Smith , of Woodbridge, is charged with arson in connection to the blaze. He is scheduled to appear in court August 22.

Atlanta real estate pros: intown apartment boom has “peaked”

Image
Consider that, in Midtown and Buckhead alone, almost 13,000 new apartments have delivered since 2012. But still, from downtown to Lindbergh, and up to Brookhaven, apartment buildings across Atlanta are almost totally full. So the question becomes ... will this last? According to an “Intown Multifamily Sentiment Survey” conducted by local real estate consultants Haddow & Company, the answer is ... maybe. Or maybe not. The company joined other industry experts at a recent Atlanta Apartment Association event to wax prophetic on the city’s explosive multifamily market . For ATL development dorks , a highlight was the results of Haddow & Company’s study, which surveyed 70 developers, lenders, and investors back in February. Collectively, they believe: Rents will be stagnant for the next one or two years. (Good news for Atlanta’s affordability crunch?) “The intown apartment market has peaked, but fundamentals are still positive,” although there will be “short-term pain in certain

(Photo: vaseohauntedhouse.com) PHOENIX — The only boos heard at the fifth annual Vaseo Haunted House last week were from disappointed residents as the Phoenix Fire Department shut down the haunted house before it even had the chance to open. Because the complex built walls for the haunted house, it was required to have a fire-alarm system and sprinklers, in addition to flame-retardant props, emergency lighting and proper exiting, said Brian Scholl, a Phoenix fire inspector . Unfortunately, the haunted house, which was set to run the two weekends before Halloween at the apartment complex near Greenway Parkway and Seventh Street, didn't have the necessary safeguards to ensure the safety of its guests, he said. The complex announced the closure on its Facebook page on Oct. 16. Emma Lowenstein, public relations director for the Vaseo Apartment Homes , said the decisio

Commercial Fire Spreads to Apartments in Des Moines

DES MOINES, Iowa  --  A  commercial fire turned into an apartment fire on Des Moines' east side on Monday evening. Around 6:30 p.m., firefighters were called to a business on the 1600 block of East Grand Avenue . The fire started in the single-story building, but spread next door to another commercial building that had two floors of apartments. Captain Mark Dooley  said around three dozen firefighters fought to extinguish the flames in what he calls a "very difficult" fire. "With the head start that this fire has, with the burning in between floors, we have to be very conscientious of a building collapse. We have to make sure the building remains stable , with our attack efforts. We will be inside as long as it continues to be safe to put the fire out," he said. Fire officials say everyone got out of the buildings safely and no injuries were reported.

Hundreds of people gathered outside Trump Tower in Manhattan, chanting, “Hey! Hey! Ho! Ho! Donald Trump has got to go!” “No Trump, no KKK, no fascist USA,” “Not my president” and “Love, not hate, will make America great .” Inside Trump Tower , “Hate has no home here” was seen on a pink board held up to the windows.

Blotter: Suspects in Aubrey home invasion plead guilty to federal hate crimes | News

Cottle's jury trial started Monday in Judge Brody Shanklin 's 211th Judicial District Court, according to First Assistant District Attorney Jamie Beck . On Wednesday, after the victim and several witnesses testified, he decided to change his plea to guilty, she said. The case went to the judge for sentencing later that afternoon.

Where Do Most Renters Want To Live — And Where Are They Trying To Escape?

Image
Unable to commit. Fear of missing out on something else (#FOMO). Not ready to settle down. No, we're not referring to your ex. Renters also often get a bad rap for being more flighty than their homeowner peers. And it isn't completely unfounded. Nearly two-thirds of renters, about 64%, plan to settle down in a different city, according to an Apartment List report . So where do they want to go? And, perhaps more importantly, where do they want to leave? The rental website surveyed about 24,000 renters, nearly two-thirds of whom were millennials, and then dug into its own internal data for the report. Apartment List looked at 50 large metros across the country for the report. It turns out renters in the priciest metros on the coasts, such as New York and San Francisco, and in inland cities where costs are rising rapidly, like Denver and Austin, TX, are the most eager to move. Folks in colder climes where there aren't as many good- paying job opportunities , like Milwaukee
