SPOKANE, Wash. Some local landlords have gone over a year without rent and can’t keep up with stress and uncertainty that comes from maintaining rentals. Many are selling off properties they’ve owned for years, causing local rent to skyrocket for tenants.
Property values are on the rise in this booming city. In 2016, the median home price was $209,500. In 2020, it was $264,121. Now, it’s over $315,000.

Like most tenants, Amy March has her complaints about the place she s renting. There s the bathroom sink, broken for over a year, that s forced her family to wash their hands in the bathtub instead. There was a busted pipe that flooded their basement for three days. There are the complete addicts living nearby. Yet, for all this, what really scares her is that she and her family might be forced to leave. She knows what the alternative is. The 40-year-old has lived it.

Here are some extra notes, quotes, tweets, stats, videos and whatever else I could empty out of the old notebook after Wednesday’s 83-74 UNM Lobos loss in overtime to the Wyoming Cowboys in a game played at the U.S. Air Force Academy:

There was no blaming weeks of not regular access to a gym to get up shots this time.
The Lobos were in Albuquerque much of the past two weeks with access at all hours of the day and night to the Rudy Davalos practice facility to get up shots and, hopefully, find a rhythm at the free throw line.
