i wound up living rent-free for a year or so in the mother in law apartment of an old multi-family home this way once. The new owner wasn’t going to move in until spring, and it was a cold very snowy winter.
Turns out, preventing ice dam damage in a lath and plaster house by keeping the roofs clean makes your landlord like you a lot. As in, we exchange christmas cards now.
- lostlogin 8y agoI was paid to have a role like that. It was great while it lasted but wore thin after a year of dealing with reoccurring problems that seemed so obviously idiotic. Pushing the automatic carpark gate open with the car because it wasn’t fast enough: a couple of times a month. Putting clothes hangers up through sprinkler heads and setting off the sprinkler: quarterly. Meth addicts smashing up washing machines: monthly. Crazy people with crazy demands detailed in multipage letter: weekly.
