housing

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. 

Man, nothing is worse than someone who puts on one artificial front, and then ends up being a waking nightmare once you get to know them. Sounds like this property manager was some kind of slimy fool indeed. Fortunately matters were able to get resolved, and he was eventually kicked to the curb. 

The best part about this shady leasing agent is they thought they'd go ahead and get away with some unadulterated BS, without the tenant actually reading the finer details of said lease. Well, they certainly got humbled and learned their lesson in the end. Check out some more juicy housing drama with this landlord who encouraged their tenant to research their rights, and ended up losing the battle as a result.

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. 

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. 

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.

Nothing quite warms our hearts like a tyrannical, shady, and genuinely mean Karen getting it in the end. This particular Karen was enforcing the rules while she wasn't abiding by the most important ones herself. This ultimately manifests in Karen's self destruction. Sounds like she lost everything. This revenge is borderline nuclear. 

This landlord thought they'd get away with trying to sell their tenants' equipment to their competitors, but they ended up failing miserably. Good on the business for fighting back, managing to get rid of everything in seven days. There's just a strange kind of joy that comes from knowing that landlord must've been absolutely miserable. 

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

Man, oh, man, this entitled neighbor was in way over their heads. Dick thought he was dealing with some easy pushover, and got a serious wakeup call. Bam Bam is a legend. 

A house filled with laughter, loyalty, love, and lots of hair. Sounds like a wild ride indeed. All in all, by the way this lad describes his experience with his female roommate and her best friend, it sounds like it was a whole lot of fun. You've just got to be able to roll with the drama, but come on, everyone is stirring up drama regardless of how they identify themselves. 

We love nothing more than a tyrannical landlord who thinks they can get away with screwing over tenants, getting screwed over themselves. This landlord absolutely had it coming. If you're looking for another satisfying revenge story with a landlord getting it in the end, check out this landlord who tried to threaten their tenant, so the tenant went full Karen.

As far as nightmarish roommate cases go, this woman is in a league of her own. She refused to pay rent, drained her roommate's savings in the process, stole their food, broke their things, and all the while pawned off the unfortunate instances as being a result of "bad energy" in the place. Yeah, it would seem like she was absolutely responsible for the stirring up of that bad energy. Fortunately, the roommate had a valuable connection in the legal department and was able to resolve the drama in court with welcomed smoothness and efficiency. 

Check out some more roommate revenge drama with this roommate who stopped paying for utilities, so a petty revenge ensued.

We love a good landlord revenge story. Some landlords can be the absolute worst. Take the landlord who tried to threaten a dude with an eviction, so he went full Karen.
