    Yeah. My current one only has a $300 deposit and theyre the biggest landlord I've dealt with. Goes to show how little of an issue the costs of fixing a place are to them.

      When I rented with a corporation they returned my security deposit and the interest on my last month deposit. When I rented from a mom and pop place they refused to return my key deposit (after I returned the keys) because I broke one of their chairs. The chair was extremely old and my friend got injured when it collapsed as he was sitting on it. Fucking hate mom and pop places, I don't care if it's a landlord or a small business, always a bunch of penny pinching sociopaths who will fuck you over for the tiniest gain.

      Large corporations tend to have similar motivations, but they tend to at least be more fair as I imagine explicitly braking policies on an institutional level is too much of a risk.

        Yeah. I just got a reply from some small landlord bitching at me and claiming communists only care about ethical consumption when it relates to cell phones. Like theres no ethical person to rent a place from lmao.
