If he does his job well, he can get the money. Deal?

This means being responsive and responsible when issues happen with water, heating, electricity, mold and vermin. It means making sure that if they repaint an appartment, they don't just set a bomb in there to splatter the place. Actually remove the cupboard doors before painting. It means not painting over electric outlets.

It also means not cutting the water for three days a month, replacing the toilet when it breaks, not a week later. It means maintenance on the building's laundry room. Clean shared spaces. Secure entrance that actually locks, and actually unlocks.

Those are only some of the issues I had when renting. It is demeaning to be treated like that, and then be asked for money.

Yep, I basically got a very cheap rate from my landlord because he's currently living thousands of miles away so he doesn't really know the market rate for my area and he basically just told me just send him the invoice for any upkeep that I need to reduce my rent based on that.

If more landlords are like him, people's sentiment on landlords would be better.

I realized very early on that renting is incredibly expensive and that getting my own place was the most important step to having any sort of financial security. Even if it was a shithole, it was my shithole for storing my equity. I hear these stories of people who rent the same place for 20-30 years and end up paying fivefold what it would have cost them to live in a much nicer place with no cunt landlord to pay fealty to.

Obviously, if you're paying for a service and not getting it, you have a right to complain. If your landlord provides reliable shelter for an agreed upon price, I don't think it's fair to consider them the scum of the earth. People have a right to own property and do what they see fit with it.

This is all true, and anybody who disagrees with this basic stuff needs to grow up.
