  • @Monoperty
    @Monoperty Před 4 lety +2515

    As a landlord, I have never understood why other landlords put so many restrictions on their tenants. The property is the tenants home not the landlords! If I allow the tenants to decorate as they wish, they are likely to stay longer which is good for me. Any damage caused is protected by the deposit. I hope other landlords read this. Oh, and great video Kate, stay safe 👍

      OMG I wish you were my landlord 😭 we have a " maintenance guy" who only shows up when he needs money. I'm not allowed to paint other than white. There's alot that needs repaired, but he only wants his guy to do the work! Fingers crossed I can talk him into letting us put a roof over the porch, it's a very odd size so we can't even get a gazebo or a pop up cover so there's no shade on the porch which stinks because I love to be outside but I suffer from ocular migraine! Not to mention that we have put in our own money and time putting in new flooring in the master bedroom and bathroom and the laundry room. Between the repairs, no coverage on the porch, constantly waiting for the maintenance guy, and the internet service I'm ready to move.

      1. Put everything to in writing, emails are legal so avoid verbal requests, you should say as I asked last March I need to have my oven repaired, the burner still doesn't work... I'm stunned your rental was in such bad shape you had to put in your own time and money into flooring. Just stunned. 2. Free help, call your County Bar Association, tell them you've heard that there is a program where you can consult with an Atty that specializes in renters' rights.
      The Atty gives you a free half or a full hour to see if you could have a case, and you get a lot of free info and frankly, you have been screwed. The owners are in violation and look at your lease and have it ready for the Atty to ask questions and before your meeting or phone consult have your questions ready. Good luck, you deserve better. I would never treat my residents like that. He's in violation and yes it is legal and yes I would take him to court. If you lived and didn't pay rent they would take legal action against you. Take your power back, you'll feel so much better.

    I love the look of open shelving, so I took a pair of cabinet doors off of one of my kitchen cabinets and tucked them in a closet. I then took the shelves out and used some double-sided tape to cover the back of the cabinet with a really cute wrapping paper. I put the shelves back in and styled my dishes along with some cookbooks and knick-knacks. It's a great colorful upgrade to the kitchen and it makes me really happy to look at it.
