Except...hmmm...to protect the landlord.
” that!
“I will try not to speak.”
“I will try to not speak.”
It seems that those are subtly different in meaning. Plus, one sounds more natural than the other.
Split infinitives are not necessarily incorrect. Sometimes, they are unavoidable. The rule I learned about them was to never split them with more than one word.
Let the landlord not pay NY property taxes and watch how fast the state acts on that.
Property Taxes went up also. For me it’s 60% of rental income.
I compared my property to James’. Hers is worth more but she pays less taxes. She gets a weird discount which I intend to look into.
Also, if you do have a good tenant, keep them there as long as you can, even if you could get a few hundred more a month in rent.
It’s cheaper to keep them.
It’s illegal to ask more than one month’s rent. It has to be returned within 14 days when renter moves out. This doesn’t give enough time for repairs.
So landlord’s are now providing government mandated housing?
those left will screen to the 9s?
What does that mean?.......................
>The obvious solution ....<
...is a month to month lease with payment in advance. If the person doesn’t pay the next month’s rent, they are no longer a tenant. The rent can also be adjusted every month for the new lease.
EC
application fees are limited to no more than $20 which won’t buy you half the credit report.
Late fees no more than $50 or 10% of the rent whichever is LESS.
Only one month’s security deposit can be collected.
Tenant can give 30 days notice to leave at any time but LL must give up to 90 days notice depending on length of tenancy.
A few of the “gems” from Peekaboo James.
Only a year? Sheesh we have a client who has tenants in NYC who haven’t paid a dime since 2018 and they’re now in landlord tenant court for the second time to try to get them evicted...
She must come from a culture that does not see bill paying or believe in working for your goods as a value to have or teach.
Bingo! You have to get estimates which are usually thrown out in court.
Pretty sure that is illegal under the 2019 rules.
Screening will intensify. Personally anyone who gives me a “sob story” or “I’m am exception” is immediately disqualified. Most of us still in the game have an automated prequalifier form we send out before we even THINK about showing the place or sending out an actual application. Out of 100 responses, maybe 2-4 are actually worth considering as prospective tenants around here (upstate NY)
Around here, Real Estate agents manage rental properties....................
What ticks me off is when renting out, new tenant signs a no pet lease. A month later I get a letter from their psychiatrist stating how severely mentally disturbed the tenant is and needs an ESA. Shouldn’t HIPPA laws apply here? I rent apartments. I’m not a “healthcare provider”. We’re not allowed to charge a pet fee or discriminate so why play the ESA game?
And most do a HORRIBLE job at it. They get a commission to put in a warm body.
Look up the name of the psychiatrist on the letter. Odds are they don’t even exist. Many websites are offering fake ESA letters to get out of pet deposits/pet rents
