I've been gobsmacked that pretty much every landlord I've had DGAF and never does even annual walkthroughs.

Last 4 years it’s been nothing but “I lost my job, I don’t have money, my bank account is frozen in the abyss, my fathers friend tripped last week I can’t pay rent!”

Most of all the damage I’ve had on my home, walls being punched in, my island somehow got ripped up from the floor, woman throwing non flushable wipes down the toilet causing flooding on 2nd floor multiple times, clogged drains, dirty stained carpet that costs thousands to replace, blowing up the AC condenser outside in summer by putting AC to 65 degrees in 105 degree weather, cops bothering me looking for old roommates for crimes, broken fences, dogs tearing holes in the lawn…


Breh I can go on for days. Since post covid I swear people act homeless, careless and entitled

I had one tenant try to argue he was working 2 weeks out of the month traveling and he should only have to pay half the months rent





Oh yeah can’t forget the scratched/dinged walls and door trimmings torn up from dogs and them moving ****
"They messed up my pay at work!" seems to be a staple of renters from what I've seen. That, "Our car broke down," and "Our kid is sick."

Explain how none of that shiit is my problem though and they'll look at you like you're from another planet.
It's a hot night. The mind races. You think about your knife: the only friend who hasn't betrayed you, the only friend who won't be dead by sunup. Sleep tight mates, in your quilted chambray night shirts.

Yeah one lady told me her company sent her a paycheck in the mail and it got lost for 3 weeks and some guy named Eduardo had to pay her rent. It’s all a bunch of bull****. They all make their car payments on time and cell phone bills but since democrats made it harder for private citizens to be landlords since covid it’s become a joke

They purposely did the whole squatter BS with everything else to further push away middle class




What the bottom feeders don’t realize is instead of paying 500$ for a nice big house and room to rent they’ll now be paying 2000$+ for a fraction of a house. Corporations are heavily protected against renters

Private you’ll be lucky to get rent 7/12 months not Including the damage that incurs or wearing items out

Yeah, they wouldn't dare tell the bank they can't make their car payment because they know the bank won't give two fux. Why they expect their landlord to will always be a mystery to me though. I even told a couple that was renting from me once to go borrow it from somewhere and they bert stared the shiit out of me and actually said they didn't want to have to owe anybody...

Right, but they wanted ME to give them a line of credit on their rent lol. How about no.. How about you figure it TF out like an adult and stop bringing your problems to me.

Plus now i have to deal with constant drama (noise complaints) and a lot of dumb nonsense between the tenants AKA got to drunk and lost their keys so call me at 2am to let them in.

Because Putting a tenant on a contract only protects the tenant 90% of the time and opens up endless possibilities of lawsuits to incur if you as a landlord don’t oblige.

This is exactly my point. Renters today when renting from a landlord feel as if it’s paying for a local charity that’s optional.

Most of all majority of renters are programmed to hate and disrespect the landlord and take out all their personal issues on them. It deters the attention on corporations/banks/politicians who are the real cause of all of this

The idea is to rent to folks who have 'something to lose', just like a landlord does. Renting it to someone who has 'nothing to lose' is a recipe for disaster. Something as simple as a guarantor or credit score check helps already, as do my other requirements. I have never once had a nightmare story that renters on this forum claim is regular. Not once. This idea that some folks rent and "trash places" - makes me wonder what sort of trash is being rented to, and/or what sort of bottom of the barrel scraping some landlords do. Some != all.

I never said "all", but you said "not all" for some reason. Some restaurants are good, some aren't. Some places to work are good, some aren't. I don't use one myself, but if I had hundreds of airbnb properties in the mediterranean I would. And anyone in this business knows the reputable ones too.

See above. This could never happen to me, nor to landlords who act like I do.

There's some confusion here as to inspections - I run an 'etat des lieux' type thing where detailed photos are taken of every room of every place, signed off by the tenant and myself. Any changes beyond wear and tear are paid for by the tenant, period.

People seem to forget that an ability to rent one of my properties isn't a right. I am the one who has the right to discern between good and bad tenants, and any good tenant simply agrees to what I ask for because it's within their ability to commit to. I can weed out morons IRL as well as I do here, as a quick point.

You have to investigate who you're allowing to rent your place. If you let section 8 in there, you can expect to be in court a lot while these drug addicts and criminals ruin your house.
