His landlord thought he could get away with claiming that the conditions of the apartment were les…

Entitled Boomer calls neighbor 'lazy renter,' not knowing he's owned the house for 3 years: 'I told her to find the nearest retirement home'

When you purchase a home, unfortunately, the neighbors come with it. And you never know what to expect.

Either way, either other is better than getting stuck next to an entitled Karen who will call the co…

'He changed everything that made the business successful': New game store owner prevents regulars from renting gaming room, resulting in massive customer loss

'$1,000 in water has literally gone down the drain': New landlord refuses to do repairs, so tenant refuses to fix leaky sink even though he's a plumber

'$1,000 in water has literally gone down the drain': New landlord refuses to do repairs, so tenant refuses to fix leaky sink even though he's a plumber

“My lease clearly states that all water-related issues are management’s problem. I don’t pay for water or gas utility, it’s included in my rent... I’m perfectly capable of fixing the issue, but out of spite, I refuse to. I had a small leak at my house once, and it drove my bill almost $100 for the month over normal. I figure at least $1000 in water has literally gone down the drain, not to mention, the water is also being heated by the gas water heater.”
