apartment

Enough of all the landlords in the world trying to take advantage of their kindhearted tenants just trying to plant their roots. Seriously, this landlord thought they'd be able to pull a fast one on the tenant and raise their rent by $500 just because they knew the tenant had the money to pay that. Fortunately, the landlord was stopped in their tracks. 

At its core this whole dramatic scenario sound like the sloppy manifestation of a nasty breakup. One person ends up moving out and the other ex-boyfriend swings low by having a ton of people move in that basically pay his way, while his ex has to make full payments on the rent. So, his ex reported him to the landlord, and he was screwed from there. Just a textbook petty revenge between a bitter couple of ex lovers. 

Check out another petty revenge with this story about some loud neighbors that deprived a family of sleep, so the kids took revenge.

Man, any time we see a landlord try to pull a fast one on a tenant, and then the tenant proceeds to teach them a lesson, it warms our hearts. In this case, it really just seems like the landlord didn't expect the tenant to do their research. From there, soon as the truth came to light, you can pick up the clear scent of resignation from the landlord trying to continue onward with their antics. Check out another time a shady landlord was defeated by a moral enforcer.

Nothing melts our hearts like seeing an evil and maniacal landlord get righteously taken down by a tenant who simply had enough of their BS. It sounds like this particular landlord was a waking nightmare. Like, my dude, you cannot walk into a tenant's apartment without giving notice. There are laws in this strange existence that we call our own. 

Man oh man, inconsiderate neighbors are just the kind of thing that can drive the most rational, even keeled folks over the edge. Especially if you approach their antics with kindness and try to play nice, and they throw it right back in your face. Fortunately, this tenant was able to take the kind of successful petty revenge that resulted in their neighbors getting penalized with a righteous fine. Job well done. 

Sometimes, the best course of action when you realize that a landlord or real estate agent is going shady on you, and trying to pull the bait and switch, is to do nothing at all. This couple certainly got their vengeance, and we're glad to see that everything worked out for them on their housing hunt. The only way that they could've made this revenge any sweeter would've been to have sent a couple friends in their place to "sign the lease", only to back out at the last second. 

Man, we're not even sure who is worse in this equation: Wendy or the scumbag property management company. They let that place devolve into a complete mess of a housing situation. At least Wendy learned her lesson in the value of playing nice with everyone, and not doing something terrible like trying to scam a tenant out of thousands of dollars. 

This Twitter thread from @calebsaysthings captures that unforgettable, teeth-grinding frustration that many tenants have had with trying to navigate apartment problems with landlords that are terrible communicators. It's just the worst. 

Freeloaders are swinging way outside of their weight class when they try to take on the hard working people of this world. These folks clearly had some grit, and were not going to get pushed around by a tenant who was just trying to squat on their property for as long as she could milk it. Fortunately, the court system provided a smooth resolution to the infuriating predicament. 

We have no idea what dark force compels the scummy landlords of the world to walk around stirring up trouble, and acting like they don't have to play the rules like the rest of us. Especially when it comes to respecting tenants' rights. So, any time we see the tenant pull through with the righteous victory our hearts melt in satisfaction. 

Check out another revenge story where a landlord wouldn't pay for electricity during the winter, and had to pay thousands.

Man, oh, man, these tenants sound like a nightmare to deal with. The kudos definitely goes to the landlord here. The landlord handles the situation by listening to those malicious compliance chills, and using the very "professional" rules they asked the landlord to follow, to ultimately bring the tenants down. Even after the victory in the small claims court, the landlord exercises self control and doesn't rub it in their faces. Good for her. Love to see a situation where the landlord is actually being the nice human. 

Never ignore the bright, waving red flags. Twitter user @RantingOwl shares her story about an open house visit that definitely took a dark turn. 

What is with all these landlords and being so dang stubborn (and criminal) when it comes to returning tenants' rightful deposits? It's like, just do the right thing so that the rest of the antics don't need to occur in the first place. But alas, here we are. This guy successfully took the tyrannical property manager down by setting up a website that ended up getting a whole lot of traffic. Hopefully they kept that site up until the property manager made good on all of the payments. 

This dude did his due diligence and followed the law to the letter, getting out of a bad deal with striking precision. Living situations can get to be a handful, like these nurses who took revenge on their roommate, or this woman who relocated her garden and upset her landlords.

Some of those landlords think that they can get away with just about anything. Well, these tenants weren't messing around. All that greed ended up costing the landlords over $13K. Should've just done the right thing from the start. Check out some more juicy landlord drama with this tenant who staged a coup d'état on a nasty landlord.

The landlord should've just done the right thing off the bat, but here we are. We love nothing more than when a tenant comes out victorious over a scumbag landlord. If you enjoy this tale of pro revenge, we recommend checking out the time that a landlord wouldn't pay for electricity during the winter, so they got what was coming to them in the end.
