Haha I sure do love charging people boatloads of money for a human necessity.
SUPPORT NEEDED!!! 😭😭😭 Hey r/Landlord friends, I’m going through a really hard time right now and I have nobody to turn to! All of my friends and family are calling me a monster and it’s honestly bringing me so much self doubt. I need reassurance that I’m doing the right thing, since you’re all Landlords, you know how tough (and rewarding!) this job is. You can’t make it in this business without making difficult decisions sometimes, right? 👀👀 Anyways, one of my tenets got diagnosed with brain cancer last month (praying for him 🙏❤️) and said he might be late on rent. At the time I told him it was fine (oops!) but I’ve been working so hard to buy myself a much needed fourth car for commute to and from my modest second house (So blessed 🙈) and I’m worried his late payments will prevent me from being able to get it during my birthmonth 🍰 so I’m thinking of evictIng him. I know it’s the right thing to do but my families harsh words have damaged my resolve. Please give me your support.
Edit: it’s not illegal to kick him out in my state FYI. ❤️
If he really does have brain cancer (he may not) do you really want to be responsible for his things and/or any damages if he passes? It may sound callous, but you’d likely be doing both of you favours if you evict. You alleviate any potential headaches (no pun intended) for yourself, and he can spend more time with his family, which I am sure he could use the support.
You’re right! It’s not like he’s going to be alive for very long (if it’s true anyways 💅), so him staying in MY complex I work so hard to maintain when he can’t even be responsible enough to plan his finances is actually really cruel of him. He should know better than anyone that life is short and that he shouldn’t be preventing others from living life to the fullest just because HE’S having a hard time 🤷♀️!
I am ethical, my rents are only 5% higher than market rate!
I sure am a useless piece of shit.
Can’t believe the gall of some people. One of my tenants came to me begging, literally weeping, asking for an extension on their rent just so they could afford the medical bill for their dumb kid’s broken arm
like, how is that my problem? This isn’t free housing!
