Sometimes you try give tenants a hand by helping them , then they just take advantage and grab you by the foot 💁‍♂️

Landlords stay with in your lease agreement. Document everything

I was so pleased to see "don't be condescending" as item #1 on the list. Is there any other sector of the economy where it's considered acceptable for the providers of goods and services to treat their customers with the same level of arrogance and contempt as some landlords treat their tenants? If there is, I'm not aware of it.

Maybe we need a better word than "landlord." Harkening back to the Middle Ages, the word connotes a wealthy, possibly greedy individual financially exploiting a person or group of people that simply want a place to live--suggesting the landlord is better off and maybe even more "powerful" than a tenant. Tenants may subconsciously resent landlords because of such negative connotations and resort to taking an adversarial style of communication and behavior. There are quite a few words that might set a friendlier tone, such as property manager, property owner, landowner, housing provider, leasing agents, and lessor, to mention a few.

Tenants are not abused…spoken like a true attorney

So dont be a landlord in CA. Got it!

I’d love to see more landlord videos with recent changes.

Hello hi I’m a landlord I’m in 30 years in this business I keep tenants like a family but damn some tenants you can keep him as much as you can keep him good but still always never be happy what you do about this kind of tenants take advantage about every single thing no like to pay rent don’t like to do anything tell him to move your car don’t park in the driveway them a lot of thing nobody understand why you always lying a lot to pay the price about the tenant law

"Stay informed" . HOW? There are no local schools of landlording, no library courses of how to run an apartment. Books published are already out of date. DO have a lawyer check out your contract. Write it in simple language in big enough print to read without a microscope. Contract has to work for both parties. If not, don't sign.

Many tenants play the system and expect free rent….

After Covid ,it makes no sense to be a landlord, add in property tax keeps going up up and up,and insurance, maintenance, and wear and tear,and lawyers fees to evict a problem.New rules on rent prices.Lawyers and real estate agents and bankers getting the money while you clean up the mess.

I don't know why my property manager acts so untouchable. They have broken so many business laws and civil rights. Are they all like this? New Mexico

Good criminal law against landlords can only be a good thing. Some how they have to take some responsibility for the what they are providing and doing.

One thing to pay attention to is don't be harassing your tenants about what they have in their yard. The yard comes with the place if you have a yard, landlords need to keep their noses out of their tenants business. What the tenant has in the yard as in Hardware is really none of the landlord's business. So what if it must be moved for mowing, we get it. When you go hunting the tenant they must move it from somewhere it's always been for quite a number of years with no valid reason, we have a problem. I'm talking about examples like outdoor storage barrels that might be storing extra plant pots and other small items. If something like that has been in one spot on a concrete slab for years with no issue whatsoever, and then the landlord decides to start bothering their tenant, it's a problem on the landlord's part. If a tenant has their own little area that came with their apartment and they're using it and you start bothering them about something that's protecting a parking area on their behalf, we have a problem. I've actually dealt with these issues, which is why I've brought them up. No, I'm not downsizing that particular item, meaning I'm not going to work with the landlord to cut it in half for a smaller one when I need all of the space of the one I have and have had for many years. There's nothing wrong with it except that when you move the item it falls apart if you don't move it right. If you don't know where to grab it, of course it's going to fall apart. Maybe the landlord should let the tenant know in these cases when they're coming to mow so the tenant can work their schedule to move the item instead of the landlord griping about it. When you harass tenants who has been there for a while, especially decades, you could be setting yourself up for a lawsuit. If you're setting yourself up for a lawsuit harassing tenants by nitpicking which is what this is that I'm describing, nitpicking can get you in big trouble because it's harassment If you have your own personal yard that came with your apartment and the landlord tries to put restrictions on what you can put out there such as items with a valid use, and I'm talking average everyday items.... you really need to push back hard and not budge What we all need to do is document everything. That includes saving all those calls and texts on such days you had an issue. Save everything you possibly can. If the landlord wants you to sign an updated lease, read it over carefully Don't sign nothing you don't agree with If you're not sure about something, let a lawyer look it over

The music is annoying. Detracts from the content and presentation.

*I have kind of a complex question that I CANNOT find the answer to no matter how much I search google. So My issue is this: I live in New York, and rented from my previous landlord, lets call him E, and I now have a new landlord, lets call him C. Before C bought my building, E let me know that he "transferred my lease" to C. I paid first and last month's rent to E when I first moved in, but he didn't mention if he sent my last month's rent to C with the 'lease transfer'. I plan on moving out of new landlord C's apartment when the 1 year lease is up. Should I expect to not have to pay last month's rent my last month there? What happens if my previous landlord did NOT send my new landlord my last month's rent, and I am not able to get in contact with my old landlord to ask him if he did? Please help lol*

Can i hire a professional Russian Mob Enforcer, on the dark web , so he can have a talk with my nonpayment tenants....?????

BEING NICE TO A TENANT IS DEEMED A SIGH OF WEAKNESS
