This guy is lucky to have a girlfriend with this kind of initiative! She discovered that four adjacent units in their building were being used as an AirBnB ring against management rules.

'I'm not feeling safe in my own apartment': Cheapskate landlord gets fined $10,000 for jerry-rigging electrical instead of replacing a faulty stove after endangered tenant reported it to the fire department

One of the few benefits of being a renter is that you are not responsible for maintaining a property's upkeep. However, that is simultaneously a huge downside if you have a chintzy landlord. If your unskilled landlord is a cheap, do-it-yourself type, you might find yourself constantly smelling methane gas, putting putty over leaks, and watching him paint over holes in the wall.

'Bro my rent is $2800, I ain't tipping': Audacious landlords suggest that their tenants should be tipping on top of their rent as a gratuity towards '24/7 services'

To landlords, there are a few easy solutions for every problem. Leak in the ceiling? Paint over it. Hole in the drywall? Paint. Are paint costs getting a little too high? Rent hike– it's time to charge your loyal tenants 15% more every month for nothing. If you've ever been a renter, you know that some landlords (most actually) can be huge jerks.
