An Adelaide mother who has two months to find somewhere to live with her severely disabled son says she was told to "manifest a home" and use witchcraft or consider living in a tent.
Not all of them. Unfortunately my only property isn’t adaptable for disabled people beside what we already installed for my grandmother (handlebars, things like that). It was built in the 50s 😅.
I did expect that, I was kinda giving the stick to beat me. But I’d have liked if those who downvoted me could give me pointers on how to improve myself as a landlord.
Put in the effort to make it more accessible, maybe charge more on the deposit if you absolutely have to financially; but eating the cost would be preferable because people dont choose to be disabled. Oh, and have a real job, so your living isnt just leeching off tenants.
So being a Dev isn’t a real job? I suppose a lot of people here would feel insulted.
What I earn from my grandmother home goes to a special account used for the apartment repairs, improvement, and taxes.
Actually, as we upgraded it a lot those last years (redid the all the electricity, paint, windows and the south side isolation), I’m actually still 70k+ in debt, which will take me arround 10 years to resorb.
But sure, I’m leeching off my tenant, if you say so.

Lemmy users just downvote any landlord on sight.

You asked for advice, I gave general advice. Im not gonna assume those because thats not most landlords. Good for you on being an exception ig
Terrible advice. This just increases the cost of the dwelling for everyone including those that don’t really need disabled access.
Yup
