Gotta be ragebait.

I sympathise with having "nightmare tenants" who trash the place, but fuck any Landlord who says you can't work from home because god forbid you use your home that you pay them for because you'd cause a bit more wear and tear than they would like.

fuck any Landlord ~~who says you can't work from home because god forbid you use your home that you pay them for because you'd cause a bit more wear and tear than they would like.~~

Landlordism is in itself unethical. If you’re not using a home it belongs to the person who is making use of it. You shouldn’t have rights to leech wealth from them in perpetuity.

I’m a landlord and I don’t care, the house is meant to be used. I’m not using it and your paying me to use it so have at it, it’s my job to save enough of your rent to fix stuff as it fails

[-] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 15 points 3 days ago

Yeah, my tenants have got a dog and we keep the white goods in working order for them. I don’t need them to pay off my mortgage, just want to treat them with the respect I’d want my landlord to treat me with.

Well maybe if the entire property wasn't done up with the landlord special of tippex on walls and the world's cheapest laminate floors they'd be able to hold up to the rigours of minor usage.

[-] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 90 points 4 days ago

They cannot enforce no working from home. God damn those parasites are so fucking out of touch

[-] tmyakal@infosec.pub 24 points 4 days ago

"Where you work" is not a protected characteristic in the US. Plenty of places where a landlord could throw this clause into the lease, and if they can prove you violated it, they can start eviction proceedings.

It would be very difficult to prove, and the ensuing legal battle may cost more than the "additional maintenance" that may be required, but in theory these bastards can do pretty much whatever they want.

[-] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 34 points 4 days ago

I know, the where you work isn't protected, but bring a rental has the implicit use of being a domicile, with all the freedoms associated with it

It's that dog meme which I'm too lazy to even search for because I'm busy working to pay the rent: No Living! Just Rent!

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 34 points 3 days ago

Here you go

[-] meco03211@lemmy.world 20 points 4 days ago

No take. Only throw.

[-] gedfromgont@piefed.ca 59 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Holy shit. I hope the top post is just satire.

Edit: lmao, jury still out on this one

[-] hOrni@lemmy.world 26 points 4 days ago

The top probably is. But the bottom is probably true.

Rent this month is $2,200, and you'd better not be late, or you're a dead motherfucker.

The new customer service protocols seem to be "Gimme your money, here's your thing, now get out. What? You want the thing to work, too? We got your money, you got your thing, now get the fuck out of here, until you need another one, then come back and see me."

This landlord took the guy's money and gave him a lease, now the guy expects to actually LIVE there, too?

Come on people. Don't be so hard on the landlord. If you don't leave for work, when is he supposed to go through your underwear drawer?

This is why I treat it like a rental. When I was renting my deposit was 10 days of rent and I didn't expect to get it back because I knew from someone else leaving that the landlord was a wanker.

I started homebrewing when I lived there, had a batch explode and splatter honey water all across the room. I quickly learnt to avoid the patches of carpet that were sticky. Knowing that the landlord wouldn't repay the deposit without me taking him to court anyway, I didn't bother cleaning it up.

I've been in the same place for over a decade, the deposit I'd like back but the place is kinda infamous for nickle and dime issues to keep as much as possible. Also the new management company have been sticklers for keeping things "clean" without saying what the standard is. I wipe up when I make a mess, sweep and mop when it's worth my time. Still, they made a stink that I wasn't perfect. So now I pour oil down the kitchen sink.

[-] x00z@lemmy.world 25 points 3 days ago

That's illegal in my country.

The only power a landlord has here is when people break stuff on purpose, cause actual disturbance or do not pay. Stuff like race, dogs, job and all that type discrimination is not allowed.

What do they want at this point? Is it blood? Is it my soul? Are we just expected to start paying these people just for existing?

You have the cushiest arrangement ever. You own the house forever and all you have to do is take care of it while someone else pays you to live in it. How could you want more than that?

[-] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 20 points 3 days ago

Lmao I literally spent $2 and 10 minutes replacing an outlet on my rental the other day to avoid having to deal with my landlord

Saw a video where a couple who rent their home as an AirBNB were bitching that their tennants used the beds. In the very next scene, they bitched that the guests didn't eat the snacks in the kitchen.

[-] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 14 points 3 days ago

Sooo, no retirees, stay-at-home moms, lottery winners, self-employed, etc.?

[-] architectonas@lemmy.world 16 points 3 days ago

Yes because rent is supposed to cover my investment costs as well as provide passive income. What do you mean my investment is bound to the property? This is only true when I sell it and cash out once again.

Landlord 101

[-] Star@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 3 days ago

Bold to out yourself as a landlord

[-] jade52@lemmy.ca 14 points 3 days ago

Fuck landlords

[-] boaratio@lemmy.world 18 points 3 days ago

The term landlord dates back to feudalism. This is insanity.

Sounds like you shouldn’t be fucking landlording, then, because if I pay rent, I can do literally whatever the fuck I want that’s non-destructive and doesn’t disturb my neighbors.

What a consummate tool, holy fuck.

[-] AmyAye@nord.pub 17 points 3 days ago

Ok, but can I still flip the switch on and off rapidly pretending its a lightning storm.
