How did the leasing office not figure this out on its own?

There is nothing more ridiculous than writing a check for two cents!

The dynamic of a homeowner bringing in roommates is interesting: on the one hand, they're a roommate; on the other, the landlord. This can create delicate situations and result in either party harboring ill sentiments for the other. Many people are pouring a significant amount of money (>30% of their income) into their rent, which is the equivalent of setting a pile of money on fire every week — in that it does nothing to help you invest and advance your life. It's no secret that many (most) of…

Landlords are— well… lords . Their power over their tenant is totalitarian — they set the rate a tenant has to pay to access housing and, on a whim, can send the tenant scrambling for a new place.

The gay couple waved a poetic goodbye on their new front porch as the homophobic now-ex-neighbors all of a sudden realized what had just happened to them: Karma.

Who wouldn't want to earn a passive income that directly pays off the assets required, which themselves appreciate value at an alarming rate? The only trade-off is that you have to be willing to do it by stepping directly on the necks of others. That's what being a landlord is, if you're able and willing to join a group of persons who are directly disadvantaging other people then look no further than investing in real estate!

It's no secret that landlords have a reputation for being manipulative lizard-people who will take any chance possible to extort or exploit tenants for a little bit more profit. It's akin to when you've made a few too many whiskey sours and are really trying to take that same lime for as many laps as possible. You futilely keep squeezing and squeezing the dang thing, determined to get out a little bit more juice, despite it already having as much juice left as a politician has morals. Anyways,…

This landlord threatened legal action against their tenant if the tenant refused to let them show the apartment while they were still living there. The tenant did not want the grief of going through a legal process with their terrible landlord, so they caved under pressure and allowed the apartment viewings to occur.

Time to add yet another horrid landlord to the seemingly endless list of horrid landlords . This thread was posted on Reddit's tongue-in-cheek r/LandlordLove page by u/raimine , who shared their story of being cheated by their landlord after living in their apartment for five years. Imagine living in a place for five years, paying rent on time every month, never having an issue with your landlord throughout that period…and then all of a sudden, that harmonious relationship abruptly ends when yo…

“He definitely owes you money.”

As if renting could get any worse

It's no secret that landlords can be shady. Whether it's doing the bare minimum to fix a leak or implementing unnecessary rules for you to follow that aren't real. In this case, the latter situation happened.

When it became apparent that the property manager was taking advantage of his building's tenants and doing a generally poor job, this owner realized he needed to take them down. This thread was posted to Reddit 's r/ nuclearrevenge subreddit by Redditor u/Ranthrow607. This subreddit is a bit like the big brother or the r/ProRevenge and r/pettyrevenge subreddits. Only the most brutally devastating of revenge stories can be posted to this smaller sub. We've frequently addressed the issue of preda…

She seriously thought she wasn't going to have to PAY rent?

An error in the lease that they were strictly enforcing caused this landlord to lose out at their own game in this trending Reddit thread.

This tenant took matters into their own hands, and when their live-in landlord let them know that the hot water would be out for the weekend, they booked a hotel room for themselves without saying a word. After pulling a vanishing act for the entire weekend, they returned and hit the landlord with the bill expecting them to pay it. The landlord, Redditor u/SheHadaStaycation, posted this topic to Reddit's r/ AITA (Am I the A-Hole) subreddit, wondering if they were wrong for refusing to pay for t…
