I am a landlord and worked hard for 20 years to put just enough money away to put a down payment on a multi unit building.

I can't believe the amount of headaches I have from city inspectors, insurance company, the mortgage bank, constant repairs, tenants complaining about other tenants.

Often I am late on my building gas / electrical bill or my mortgage payment and my tenants are paying late or don't want to pay at all for what ever reason.

Overall, I ended last year with negative 8,000. I did not pay myself a single dime and had to use money from my regular job to keep up with payments on this building. So much for starting a business and spending hundreds of hours running after the bank, city inspectors, repair men / contractors and non-paying tenants.

So do me a favor you whining tenants, pay your rent on time and save landlords like me some grief from this unforgiving investment.

I did not working hard socking away money for 15 years so I can let some other people who for what ever reason from bad upbringing or bad luck or partying 'non saving' nature can ride on my buck and live for free for anytime.

I do give rent credits to tenants who help me out taking care of property hallways / mow lawn and property showings / painting / other repairs..

But pigs who have spent their lives messed up, not going to school and partying and are not able to pay their rent and keep up their expenses dont deserve any compassion and need their ass kicked.
