Cap and Gown Means College Bound For Dayton, Ky. Seniors

College Signing Day

College Signing Day 2013 Recognizes Focus and Accomplishment.

Rent It Today was proud to sponsor the second annual College Signing Day at Dayton High School in Dayton, Ky. which took place on Thursday, March 28, 2013.

At the College Signing Day assembly attended by the entire student body, 40 of the school’s 55 seniors took the stage with representatives from several universities, colleges and technical schools and signed a commitment to attend the school of their choice in the fall.

Guest speakers included Kentucky State Representative Dennis Keene, D-Wilder, and Jack Moreland, president of Southbank Partners, a collaboration of Northern Kentucky private citizens, business leaders, local government administrators and elected officials.

Both men applauded the graduates and stressed the importance of education.

Guidance Counselors Keep Students Focused

College Signing Day is the culmination of a guidance program at Dayton H.S. which is run by school counselor Jennifer Glass.

2. Apply to at least one college by Christmas break.
3. Take a college tour with a representative of the college by the end of January.
4. Take the ACT at least one time in addition to when they took the test as juniors.

“This program is designed to assist students in learning about the whole college admissions and decision making process as well as teaching them to meet deadlines,” Glass commented. “A lot of schools recognize college bound scholarship athletes, and I wanted to give these students a similar experience.”

Rent It Today Pledges Continued Support

Rent It Today saluted the 40 seniors who took part in the program by providing a recognition luncheon for the soon-to-be graduates prior to the school assembly. Rent It Today was honored to sponsor the inaugural event in 2012, and plans to continue support of this very worthy program.

Lower Your Ohio Property Tax

Your rental property value has likely declined in recent months and you want to investigate if your Ohio property tax can be lowered to reflect this decline.

Because many auditors have increased property values over the last 5 years, while prices for homes have continued to fall. So, what can you do? Like many investment property owners, you lack the time and resources to appeal your property tax rate effectively, so you’re paying more than you should.

• Should you manage your own property yourself?

• Do you have the time to manage your properties?

• Do you understand all the ongoing tasks associated with managing a rental property?

• Is it cost effective for you to do this?

• Can you afford the extra time for the learning curves, working on marketing, keeping tenants, etc.?

• Are you comfortable being on-call 24/7 to respond to maintenance problems, collect rent, and conducting property inspections?
