Maybe this guy could have spent money to make the place liveable and people wouldn't have trashed it.
There's some minor damage, but I also see a lot of things familiar to all renters - ancient appliances, poorly done, slapdash remodel work in an attempt to raise rent (granite countertops with a 40 year old oven :landlord-sus: ), walls, floors, and doors that are falling apart, and shitty single pane windows.
Yeah those shitty kitchen cupboards are going to fall apart no matter how nicely you look after them. You look at the door the wrong way and it falls off its hinges.
And that oven is older than most posters here lol
I have that same granite countertop.
- it hides dirt and grime REALLY easily.
- It’s a veneer.
yea no fucking way anyone is paying 100 bucks a square to put granite in a shit rental
Yeah seems like they have the before pictures but aren't willing to post them on the thread, wonder why

From the comments
Okay so I bought the house in 2013. I was 19. I lived there for two years, made the cosmetic changes you specified, and then rented it out may of 2015.
Young parasite bought a house to get rich quick, fucked up the renovation, and blames the tenants.
What the fuck who's buying a house at 19 to rent out to others. Trust fund baby got what was coming to them
Yeah just casually buying a home at 19, y'know just the average teenage experience...
a house like that near me, without the hole in the ground, would probably go for 1400 a month
crazy what landlords get away with
Damn sucks dude guess you'll just have to learn to code like the rest of us.
Try not gatekeeping human necessities from people next time. Thoughts and prayers.
There's some loser saying "have fun renting from blackrock" to everyone bashing small landlords and like every big corporation I have rented from has always been better than small mom and pop landlords. Like theyre all evil but at least million dollar businesses will usually fix my appliances when they break.
Yeah, a big landlord is less likely to be super invested in fucking with you about what are, to them, small costs.
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.
communists only care about ethical consumption when it relates to cell phones
Venezuela no iPhone?
Threatening the peasants with the OG slumlords because they don't appreciate your feeble offerings.
But the comparison doesn't make sense in this scenario. The landlord here was already using a rental agency. Like do these people not read?
Go to the True Anon thread, its a weirdly low quality one for that sub. Lots of people who hate landlords but also weirdos defending them.
That's one of the best parts of this website. Don't have to interact with :reddit-logo: weirdos that defend landlords
holy shit, yes, I was going to start a discussion on this but I think I’m unironically blackrock gang.
I will never afford a home period, why the fuck should I care if blackrock owns everything and it pisses off the petit boug? i’d rather have walmart be my landlord than some fucking boat dealer
If anything it makes it easier to agitate when resources become increasingly concentrated. Not to be an accelerationist, but the less people having a false sense of solidarity with the owner class, saying shit like "but my auntie and uncle worked hard and they just rent out a duplex :(", the better.
I think I’m unironically blackrock gang.
It's funny to see petit boug get owned and seethe, but as for BlackRock, you do not under any circumstances, "gotta hand it to them"
know a guy who bought his house at 19, but he paid for it with his winnings from online gambling while under-age. he graduated high school with at least $500k in winnings, it was pretty neat.
That looks like there was a water leak and/or a leak in the roof, and the leach took these pictures after his own contractors started stripping out the damaged stuff so he could whine on reddit and maybe pivot into grifting people to fund the repairs for him.
Yeah I was wondering about that, the roof and wall drywall panels missing and the insulation being absent looked like the beginnings of a repair.
I'd bet he started on it himself, then got mad and pissy that he has to work, and decided to post it on Reddit with his own mess added to the pile
Yeah maybe they drop a gofundme or something? If they did that would be :sus-deep:
"But bro they're just a humble barber that bought a house at 19 bro. Just how will they ever survive?!?!11"
Just to be clear I'm not advocating living like a slob. But it's just funny as fuck that this landlord got owned so hard. Serves them right!
:mao-aggro-shining:
Amazing takes like "I have never rented and would never contribute to that," and I'm pretty sure they mean they have never been a tenant, and they see being a tenant as "contributing to the problem" as opposed to, you know, not having extra capital lying around in order to purchase a home.
The person in the comments being like "Trust me bro, tons of people buy houses at 19 I swear!!11", is my favourite
The other cursed interpretation of "I have never rented" is "I would never let filthy peasants stay in my second home so it sits empty when we're not summering there" (including the use of the word 'summering')
From the OP
They could have at least done me the curtesy of a quick death. Instead of dealing with this lol
I Think we can have that arranged :mao-shining:
I posted a few times in response to bootlickers in that thread :mao-wtf:
Yeah in the before pictures in the update post, you can see mould or water damage in one of the corners (photo quality is too low to tell)
Yeah those things peel off all the time. One splash of water, and it starts
