You might feel that you're "entitled to take a harsh legal view", but the actual legal system would not agree with you.
I don't think we're going to see eye to eye, and you've also never been a landlord or had any exposure to any of the legal side of this. It's all fine and dandy to claim that you'd "lawyer up" based on some hypothetical, but you wouldn't, and you'd lose quickly and embarrassingly if you did. I've evicted tenants, sadly, and never once did I worry that some minor maintenance issue from months before that they never complained about would even slow the process down, let alone stop it.
- fzeroracer 8y agoYou seem keen on calling something that was advertised and sold to me as non-working a 'minor-maintenance' issue so you're right we will probably never see eye to eye. Only landlords believe false advertisement is okay I suppose. And you've probably never had to deal with shitty landlords judging from your response.
- ryanwaggoner 8y agoNot sure you’ll see this, but I was calling it minor because you said it was unimportant to you. And I’ve never owned my primary residence other than living in a unit in my first property for 18 months. I’ve rented from a variety of landlords in 5 cities over the last 15 years, all over the spectrum for excellent to terrible.
