Not I. I have met people that have a "wondering" eye. One is straight,so to say. And the other sorta looks around (moves). I have a hard time looking at them. It makes mine flutter.
My issue is most likely caused by the BP meds I'm taking. And I will soon address this. Thanks for your concern though.

It's a very legitimate question, Jay.  But it's one that should be answered by a professional who would probably look at both eyes, compare them and then run several tests to pin down a diagnosis.

I'm assuming that your description means the pupil of one eye is larger (or smaller) than the other one?  If so, there are several possibilities.  Some of the possibilities are pretty scary, so you need to get it checked as soon as possible.  Please?

the folks that have eyes that aren't ...what's the word....asymmetric?

Yeah, most of us have been tenants at some point, and I'd guess most of us were good tenants. With the right paperwork in place, e.g. clearly noting that the place is on the market and may be sold, terms for the landlord ending the rental, etc. it should be fine. Of course anything can go south, but going in thinking it will go south is a sure way to start that journey.

I met prospective tenants at the house to show it and interviewed - then had them sign a release for a background check.  The ones that wouldn't pass muster didn't even get back to me.  I've had a very sweet couple in there for two years now and they complement the property!

oh, believe me, i've thought about it...that's one of the main reasons i don't WANT to rent...but since no one is buying.....or even looking to buy.....and i've been married almost a year now....my options are running thin.

I would make sure that if you do rent to section 8 (or anyone) and you later find a buyer, how easy is it going to be to remove that person peacefully. pissed off tenants can go big damage. a section 8 person may have more rights in a contract than a common non-lease renter.
just something to ask about.

i appreciate glassbuteo's perspective, but i am going to say no to my realtor.  while i have faith that there are very good people out there who file section 8, i am not comfortable with going that route with my property.

Perhaps it's a stigma. It is Chicago.I;m not a scholar in sect. 8, but if I want to sell a property, then I wouldn't want, that it has 8 lessees.

Section 8 for what? Wearing dresses or PTSD? It makes a difference.
