"We have seen corporate landlords—who own a larger share of the rental market than ever before—use inflation as an excuse to hike rents and reap excess profits beyond what should be considered fair and reasonable."

      He inherited 17 houses and has never worked

      Why is that relevant?

      every time I ask for something to be fixed he hires someone else out to do it

      So he sucks because he gets a professional to help fix problems you have? That’s what a landlord is supposed to do…

      at one point he was saving up all my checks so I had to switch to money orders

      You still paid rent with checks?

      everyone like him

      I agree, he sounds sleezy, but just because you have a bad landlord doesn’t make all landlords bad.

      Inherited everything while the rest of us have to work.

      See, this is somewhere you and I differ completely. You hate someone because they have something you don’t, I put 0 weight on it. Why should I hate someone for getting a gift from a relative or friend? Why should I hate someone because they’re blessed differently than I?

          If you don’t see any issue with someone being a sleezy piece of shit who inherited more wealth than the average person makes in a lifetime I am not sure what to tell you.

          Well you’ve already shown your bias against anyone who has inherited anything.

          The corporate overloads are going to sell you down the river the moment you are no longer useful to them.

          Okay? How am i useful to them at all? What’s that have to do with not hating an individual because he got a gift from a relative?
