    It’s not hard, it’s just expensive and intense at times. But it’s lucrative and pays off after years of upkeep and maintenance that the renters NEVER do. I ain’t selling the house. Don’t hate the players, hate the game.

      maintenance that the renters NEVER do

      But why would the tenant maintain the property? I mean, I’m a tenant and will carry out low level repairs if I cause any damage, or if entropy means that something looks shabby. But beyond that? It’s not my fucking house. My landlord just put my rent up by £50 a month to cover “the rising cost of maintenance”. They’ve not done a single bit of maintenance in the year I’ve lived here.

      I can hate both the players and the game, because it’s rigged.

        Right. I’m paying you for the home I’m living in. It’s a service you’re providing me as a tenant. I don’t own the house, if I did I would pay someone to fix my shit.
