Brian ARGAIN: So, I mean that’s basically where you’re at. I don’t know how simple or how hard that would be.

Brian ARGAIN: Okay.
Scott PETERSON: Hey, what about renting it?
Brian ARGAIN: Uh…as far as renting it, that’s…that’s pretty simple to do.
Scott PETERSON: Yeah. What…what kind of a lease could I expect out of it?
Brian ARGAIN: Well, I basically would just have to uh…you wouldn’t want anything to do with it, right, as far as being a landlord?
Scott PETERSON: I don’t think so.
Brian ARGAIN: Because what I could do is I cant talk to our uh…property management group.
Scott PETERSON: Yeah.
Brian ARGAIN: And they can…they’re actually pretty reasonable. And what they can do is they can…in fact Renee just rented her house out. It’s pretty simple because they do all, you know, the advertising, they do all the screening of people and all the crap that goes along with renting basically.
Scott PETERSON: Great.
Brian ARGAIN: And uh…so they..they basically handle everything for you.
Scott PETERSON: Right. That might be a good option.
Brian ARGAIN: Yeah. I mean that might be the best thing to do at this point.
Scott PETERSON: Yeah.
