Rate The Landlord: Anonymously share information with tenants like you

Do you really believe that homeownership is for everyone? It’s not. Hell, it is not for some of my friends in tech. You’ve got a lot to maintain, a lot of work to do, a lot to keep track of. That either means money, or pretty broad DIY skills. That’s not for everyone. It’s definitely not (at least right away) for someone who has perhaps not had the opportunity to experience homeownership via their parents.

If earlier poster is indeed renting at comfortable rates and taking better-than-average care of the properties and the residents, s/he truly is doing some good in the world.

Oh yes, and landlords, generally, are renowned for stellar upkeep of their properies and prompt repairs.

Cheap rent and better-than-average maintenence are probably 1% of available properties.

It's not for everyone, and that includes a lot of landlords.
