I’ve had two good small landlords and a few bad ones, and all corporate landlords have been bad except for one that was okay aside from the semi annual fire evacuations for the laundry room

the good landlords were renting at fair prices and doing honest work. the bad ones were overcharging for students and not doing a fucking thing, including several months where the basement was slowly flooding through the foundation and I had half my carpet pulled up

I don’t have a problem with the good landlords who rented out their long since paid off crappy but maintained place for students at fair prices. it’s the hoarding, price gouging, and not putting a fucking cent back into it that pisses me off.
