All because I wasn't on the lease. For months she was ok with me getting a dog, was excited that I was finally getting one, and about a week after Kaji arrived she freaked out on me.

It sounds like the kids are getting into the land lady's head. My dad's boss (landlord to 2 apt buildings my dad manages) tries to pull crap like that but my dad always reminds her of the laws. So... she pulls crap on him instead! She always threatens to pay him less and give him less hours because "she can't afford it" and then we counter with less money, less work and list all the responsibilities she should be doing that she makes my dad do and then all of a sudden she'd lose money if she let him go. Why? because her 40 and 50 year old daughters still like to spend mommy's money. |
Awww thanks . . I tried to be, really . . .I always thought I was pretty fair. I had tenants for over 10 years . . .the first 2 were horrible, I had to take one of them to court to get them evicted . . .then we had the same couple for the last several years that we owned it and they were AWESOME tenants. . .but we lost ALOT of money, never made a dime on it, and in the end, sold it what we bought it for in 1986 . . .
The condo market really took at dive after 1988 here . . .should of sold it then and made the $30k on it like everyone else, but nooooo I held out like an idiot . . . when we bought our house in 1992, the condo then was selling for $20,000
So we had no choice but to rent it out . . .it took a very very long time to get back up to the $60k we bought it for . .
