> Sometimes, when things come easy to people, they don't appreciate it. Holding people accountable helps them lift themselves up too. Yea I’m invoking Poe’s law on this coming from a landlord. Are you trolling?

I would think not. I assume section 8 is our equivalent of Housing Benefit. I know plenty of landlords who wont accept HB tenants because properties have come back absolutely trashed before.

  Isn’t that the risk rent is supposed to ameliorate? Otherwise where is the risk of renting property that justifies a middleman?
  - swarnie_ 6y ago
    It is a risk, and any good business man/women will work to minimise risk.

      Hah, as if holding property is a business!

        Holding properties isn't a business, its an asset of a business at best. The business is providing shelter as a service. Never thought i'd find a reddit style anti-landlord on HN.

        I’m a twitter style anti-landlord, thank you very much.
