landlord

Some of the world's landlords vastly underestimate the lengths to which tenants will go to to ensure that their rights are being upheld. In this case, the landlords' shady behavior ended up costing them $13K. Oh boy, the regret must've been painful for them. For some more juicy landlord drama check out the time that a former landlord told lies to keep a security deposit, and then ended up being reported to the IRS for tax fraud. 

Unfortunately, many of us have had our encounters with testy landlords that like to play outside the bounds of what's legal when it comes to tenant rights. It's as if they assume that people won't take it upon themselves to review the very laws that exist to protect them from getting totally screwed over. This woman was able to sneak herself into a FB group that's in place for landlords. What she went on to learn was troubling to say the very least. Hopefully the insights she gained from the group can help other people avoid falling prey to being taken advantage of by landlords that decided to abandon their moral compasses. Check out a pro revenge story where a landlord told lies to keep a deposit, and then ended up being reported to the IRS for tax fraud. 

It seems as if the world's never going to run out of slimy landlords that are all trying to pull fast ones on tenants that they vastly underestimate. In this case, good on the tenant for sniffing out the landlord's shady intentions pretty much from the get-go. It sounds like the landlord really did himself in when it was all said and done. Generally, it's only a matter of time before the world's sketchy landlords end up hitting their own self-destruct buttons. For some more juicy landlord drama check out this landlord who refused to return a deposit, got taken to court, appealed that, and then lost everything.

There are some landlords out there who are looking for any reason at all to keep that security deposit. That's when the situation calls for a very strict reading of the rules, and a ridiculous overadherence to those rules. It's like they got a notice in every font but wingdings. For one that went even further, here's one where the landlord tried to keep the deposit and lost in court.

This isn't the first time we've come across a rather gnarly landlord situation, and we're sure that it won't be the last time. There's something about far too many landlords in this world that ends up involving them getting all kinds of greedy. It's as if they make this sweeping assumption that their tenants don't know their rights, and won't do the necessary homework to ensure that those rights are upheld. Well, this tale of pro revenge that involves a landlord definitely has a happy ending. We love to see it. 

Unfortunately, the world's in no short supply of landlords that are blinded beyond belief by obscene levels of greed. All this greed can manifest into some very shady, generally immoral antics. In this case, it sounds like the slumlord was clearly not going to play nice, and return the security deposit to the tenants after they moved out. The good news is that the tenants didn't stand for it, and instead decided to fight back by ingeniously securing a website that'd go on to be the slumlord's ultimate archenemy. 

I mean, in all fairness an accidental professional revenge is better than no revenge at all. It seems as if the world's unfortunately never going to run out of shady landlords trying to pull fast ones on unsuspecting tenants. So, I guess it falls on us to read up on those tenant rights, and then clap right on back with pro revenges when the opportunities present themselves. For some more landlord drama check out this tenant who staged a coup d'état on a terrible landlord. 

Man, oh, man, this landlord sounds like they were a waking nightmare. Fortunately, the tenant knew their rights and was able to successfully overthrow the terrible landlord in court, to the tune of a six figure sum. On top of that, the tenant goes on to become the building manager. Talk about a fairytale ending. 

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.

There are way too many sleazy landlords trying to pull a fast one on unsuspecting tenants out there. It seems like we're regularly coming across revenge stories involving one tenant taking their righteous revenge on a landlord who misplaced their moral compass. Enough is enough. Maybe if more people approach their sketchy landlords like the dude in this post, other landlords would be inspired to change their ways. Check out another landlord revenge story with this property manager who wouldn't return a security deposit, and then the pro revenge that ensued. 

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 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. 

We love a good revenge tale of a shady, cheap landlord getting it in the end. In this case, the landlord tried to rip the tenant off for $400, and they end up having to pay over $6K. Now that is what I'm talking about. 

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. 

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.

Man oh man, you just never really know if you're going to end up in a living situation that's hopelessly bogged down by a tyrannical landlord who misplaced their moral compass. Sometimes the relationship between a tenant and their landlord can end up falling apart when it's least expected. This scenario certainly fits that mold. Mary seemed like she was great at the start, but that welcoming facade quickly gave way to the real monster that was hiding out inside. We're just glad everything worked out for the tenant by the end. The look on Mary's face must've been priceless too.
