    Feeling very betrayed.

    Got word that one of my tennants is apparently “pregnant” and nowhere in the contract does it say I’m okay with a baby moving into the property. Can’t believe she didn’t disuss this with me. Is it reasonable to make her pay double since they’re gonna be two people living there or do I just terminate the deal completely for the breach of trust?

      Grotesque how they reproduce like this. I would charge double and extra for the advanced wear and tear on the property (the spawn will surely vomit or spread excrement on the carpeting)

      Give them one week, and if not start charging interest on unpaid tips. Or, make an unannounced visit to the property to unscrew the hinges in a kitchen cupboard and rifle through a medicine cabinet

      Unfortunately, that was your knight you asked, and given there is a famine right now and no grain to be found, your knight went on a dangerous quest to find grain for you. You should have been more careful, not because you may have to sacrifice your knight, but because your knight is now too far away to do your other things for you.

    I might buy another 4-5 apartments in L.A. and turn them into Airbnbs .

    Nice to finally have a safespace for Landlords on Hexbear. This site really has come a long way.

      Make sure thst they’re geographically spread out, so you get to spend lots of time in traffic in your bentley so you can inspect them each amd charge the people who stay there a ln additional $500 flat fee for cleaning /after/ the cleaners have come throug. Maybe some will dispute it, but others may pay

    I must confess, I own 1/20th of a Hectare that I farm. This year I had to uproot thousands (of buckwheat) and put to the grind.
