Hole's not big enough. (If I had a nickel.)

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Then I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's strange that I found them in my butthole.

Can't believe tipping landlords was considered even as a meme lol

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Sounds overltly American tbh

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Actually, it was invented by the British in 1643.

Worst landlord laws I've ever seen was in Japan. You have to pay them a welcome fee and a key fee on top of your bond and rent when you sign a lease.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

In Berlin they now expect a blowie on top.

Korea has an interesting system. You pay a single (very large) deposit when you move in, and you get the entire deposit back when you move out. The landlord keeps only the interest on the deposit.

Lmfao.

My landlord's hardwork: Calling the service repair guy. Making sure the property management company pays him my rent. Paying for a new AC he cheaped out on decades ago.

He has multiple properties. I don't know if it's possible to use each one at the same time, if so that's a wild power, and I would totally not rent them out.

And if the pay is inadequate maybe he should get a job lol

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

Sounds like your landlord is underpaid tbh

[–] [email protected] 37 points 2 months ago (1 children)

If they're landlords, the correct term for a tenant is landslave

[–] [email protected] 32 points 2 months ago

Landserf would be a more accurate term.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 2 months ago (7 children)

tipping? do Americans tip their fucking landlords too?

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 months ago

.....do other countries seriously lack that much respect that they don't even tip their landlords? my god what a shithole the rest of the world is

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Tipping your landlord is essential for a good relationship. Not tipping them is basically wage theft.

Press the crosspost button to repost! And tip your landlord.

I've heard of cow tipping. Is landlord tipping the same sort of thing?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (2 children)
[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

But what about landlord tipping?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

Idk, it sounds plausible.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

but i saw it happen in the barnyard movie

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago (4 children)

Yeah. By paying the mortgage plus 30% on the property they bought at double a fair market rate just to keep me from buying it for myself.

I love paying double in rent what I would pay for a market-rate mortgage and getting no equity in return.

Thanks landlords!

No we don't, but they wish we would.

It was a 4chan meme to "trigger the lefties", but turned into a shitpost.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

consider me triggered

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

Some landlords that are complete assholes ask, but I doubt you'll actually see anybody actually do it.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 months ago (2 children)

The "inadequate pay" one got me rolling. 😂

Inadequate pay for what exactly? Owning some land and squeezing money from the people who actually take care of it? Fuck landlords!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

For all the services they provide us

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Thank you, I needed a good laugh today. 😂

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I'm glad I could help, upvotes on the left. Or wherever they are. That's my obligatory tip!

It probably doesn't apply to many people posting here or in general, but if you became a landlord how did your view of tenants change?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

not a landlord, I hate landlords, but I do have room mates and this shit sucks. none of them seem to have any understanding that if food.is kept in the fridge too long it will mold, or that putting a bowl in the dishwasher facing the door won't clean it. its like living with a bunch of 10 year olds figuring out how to do chores for the first time

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

I fucking hated having roommates. Our house had two kitchens and you'd think that would solve a lot of the issues... Nope. Cat litter box. Garage. Shared backyard. Everything that could be mistreated, or used improperly, was.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

I've had to rent out rooms and the basement of my home as a "landlord" and I lowered the rent on people in stead of raising it because they were giving me enough to cover part of my mortgage. It still felt shitty and exploitative to do. Especially if something broke and they had to wait to say, use the toilet.

I'd never want to do that again if possible. Also my "tenants" were not people or friends I knew beforehand. I just tried not to be a piece of shit about it.

When I see "real estate experts" gouging people to buy more real estate and bragging on social media about it - I do think they are, in fact, fucking parasites on people that do actually contribute to society. It doesn't have to be this way. Housing should not be a commodity.

Son of a landlord, we set our rent lower than market price and generally get university students

Tenants can be anything, some just pick to rent because it's just a temporary place to stay and we don't have as bad a problem as America does

Our worst renter was a business owner that did not pay rent for their business location for 4 months before disappearing

My father never evicted anyone, though A university student we once had was paying 77% less than the market before leaving after his study ended (3000 Vs 13000)

My wife and I own three homes, each purchased below our means so we could invest time and money into renovations while living in them. One is currently rented, and we’re working on the second, with plans to have it rented by next summer.

Balancing full-time jobs with these projects demands a lot of our time and resources, but I take pride in the work we put into each home. I treat my rental properties with the same care and quality as my own home—because they were my homes.

I also expect my tenants to treat the house with the same respect I do.

if it was good enough for jesus, it's good enough for me
