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

[–] surewhynotlem 6 points 1 week 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.

Don't steal! You should rent it. And tip OP.

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

I would but my low, low income as a landlord with only 14 properties makes that impossible.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

I wish people would stop treating landlords as a charity case. Why are we always sending public money to landlords? Subsidizing their bills? Giving them easier access into universities and training programmes? Going easy on them when they steal - yes, steal! - 'essential' goods like memes!

Landlords should pull themselves up by their bootstraps, work hard, and spend less on avocado toast! Don't buy what you can't afford! One day, with enough hard, honest landlording, you might even be able to become a tenant.

[–] [email protected] 60 points 1 week ago (2 children)

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

[–] Dasus 19 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Sounds overltly American tbh

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week 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 1 week ago

In Berlin they now expect a blowie on top.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

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.

[–] Buddahriffic 1 points 6 days ago

In Canada, there's a last month deposit that is paid at whatever the rate is when the rental begins but counts at whatever rate the last month ends up at. This is to cancel out the interest the landlord should owe on the deposit.

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Hey, at least key fee rhymes

[–] Woht24 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Well it always baffled me, you just sign a lease, put a deposit down and pay the guy a welcome fee and then you don't get a key until you pay more?

Fucking wild.

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana 1 points 6 days ago

Baffling is the right word!

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

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana 6 points 1 week ago

Sounds like your landlord is underpaid tbh

[–] JackLSauce 36 points 1 week ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 32 points 1 week ago

Landserf would be a more accurate term.

[–] pyre 30 points 1 week ago (7 children)

tipping? do Americans tip their fucking landlords too?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 week 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] 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

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

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

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

[–] pyre 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] ObviouslyNotBanana 12 points 1 week ago

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

[–] chiliedogg 13 points 1 week 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.

[–] pyre 3 points 1 week ago

consider me triggered

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

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

[–] buddascrayon 20 points 1 week 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] 1 points 6 days ago

I don't rent currently, but if I do end up renting out a room, I got the inadequate pay for the house by first delivering pizzas and then manufacturing shit.

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

For all the services they provide us

[–] buddascrayon 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Thank you, I needed a good laugh today. 😂

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

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

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

Needs many, many more rocks.

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 1 week 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

[–] Sea_pop 5 points 1 week 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.

[–] Bamboodpanda 3 points 1 week ago

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.
