William of Hamleigh learned this the hard way.

I had a tenant who thought his girlfriend was good enough to cover the rent with a Beej.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiight.

First off, you owe me $$$. Not a BJ.
Secondly, she's some trash submissive that gets off on humiliation and that is not my type.
Thirdly, I forgot the third thing. Have to call my legal team and ask them about adverse action letters, and final notice PDFs, and merge fields so we make sure when I haul you ass into court, the judge knows I'm not farking around and want you OUT, your credit report on notice, and
P.A.I.D. before you fark over any other landlords.

Farking punk only ever paid me in small bills he pulled from her G-string after she got off work.

Plus, the eviction procedure, at the longest, requires 90 days (California, probably shorter in NM). I suspect that having the tenants declared legally dead in the absence of a body (on the assumption you get away with it) takes longer than 90 days, so all that extra time is additional lost revenue.

Just not very sound financial thinking there.

Yeah, never accept any form of payment that you can't put on a receipt. I guess that might work if you were in Vegas' surrounding county, but it does seem like it wouldn't cover a whole month at the going rate.

//Nudge nudge

The IMF and the mafia get away with this kind of behavior when people don't pay they're perceived debts, so what's wrong with this?
Keep in mind, there are "libertarians" who say all taxes is theft but somehow thinks its okay if they just call it rent and give the landlord a private army instead of a public military.
Neither robbery is okay.

There are numerous grammatical errors in there, but I'm sure you can read my intended meaning.
Sorry about that.

At first I was like "You must be fun at parties" but after thinking about it, I too would be pretty pissed if the guy sent his girlfriend to try and pay the rent.

Sometimes principle trumps money.

Unfortunately, it's usually a principle even more base and corrupt than money.

The thing is, if you kill your tenants for not paying the rent, then they're definitely not going to pay the rent.

Yeah... well, you know, that's just like your opinion, man...

As a landlord/former rent enforcement agent, it really isn't that difficult to get people out/off your property. Yeah, you might not get all your rent, you may have damages that are not covered by the deposit, whatever. Let. It. Go. Business =/= Personal.

//People seems to get extra stupid and crazy when you mix money and property


"omg it's my home!". No, you are renting OUT your former home, it is no longer your home, let it go. Or, you are renting a rental, it is NOT your home, you are trespassing if you don't pay your rent, let it go.

They're taking it back.

Damn, and I thought my landlady was bad for leaving a passive aggressive note on my door.

kelleygreen: So why did you rent to him to begin with?

My partner ran his screening, did not google his ass, as I would have done.
I found out he had his rich daddy pay off cops to sweep under the rug the fact that he had tied his brother to a chair and tortured him prior.
He was a demented asshole and is playing biaotch to buuba in a KS penn now.

meow said the dog: LAUGHTER OL you paid a lawyer for this reason?

You. get back in your box, gimp.

I used to have a hot Armenian chick as a landlord.
If only she'd have just accepted a stiff rogering instead of a rent check.

Unless the girlfriend looked like the Annette Bening from "The Grifters" NSFW and it was sex instead of only a BJ. Then there would be room for negotiations.

C-I-L-L, kill my thenants.

Rent in BJ would be ok, I guess. But let's say your rent is $500. What's a BJ worth? Maybe $50 absolute maximum. That's 10 a month. Probably more like 25, depending on how you value it. So let's just call it once a day. That's a lot, even for BJ.

I'm guessing that in this case the deal was for one BJ for the month, though.

Who else thinks there is a bit more to the motive then the rent money, i wonder why the Girl wasnt murdered. Might have been some weird arse affair between the girl and landlord, where he just either got jealous or was putting her to the test.

Noo no no. He went after the mom for the rent, and then the girl's boyfriend got in the way. He shot the mom for owing rent, and the boyfriend for trying to fight back. The girl didn't do anything so she wasn't shot.

Owes rent money!

Ed Finnerty: TheSpaceAdmiral: Ed Finnerty: SoxSweepAgain: There has to be a conspiracy in there someplace.

I guess I don't understand why that doesn't link to a page about New Mexico, where the crime occurred.

I'm assuming because the text is parsed dynamically looking for key words that can be linked to other articles. I doubt a human said, "this is a good place to link that Mexican sports article."

Of course. Why would they bother to include the 50 states of the country they report on? That would be silly. It's not like you can set phrases or anything.

This is a really strange thing to be bothered by. I mean, really...

Finally ran somebody off last week. Uncle tells me yesterday he (the first guy) wouldn't vacate someone's place last year, so they bulldozed their house to avoid giving the guy his 90 days.

/OT1H, probably illegal
//OTOH, I laffed
///Don't steal from me
////And then try to have ME arrested
//Farking drugheads

See, the thing is that the apartment is now freed up, and the ex-tenant can still pay their way.





/you've just got to have faith in the plan

There was a sleazebag around here a while back that would rent only to junkies, and take life insurance policies out on them.

He lived... comfortably.

It's an automated link, it probably recognizes topics. Mexico probably rates higher than New Mexico.

So, where's it going to end up? I call self-inflicted gun shot to the head.

TO BE FAIR. PUTTING YOUR BUILDING UP FOR RENT IS PROBABLY ONE OF THE GAYEST THINGS U CAN DO IN TODAY"S ECONOMY. EITHER LIVE IN YOUR BUILDING OR SELL IT>
