Sounds overltly American tbh

Sounds like your landlord is underpaid tbh

Landserf would be a more accurate term.

.....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

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

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

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!

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

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

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

For all the services they provide us

Preferably on top of him

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

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.

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.

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)
