Sorry Phil I could not think of the proper term so I said "fuck them", when I was thinking nickle and dime. I did not think you insinuated that at all though and felt you had a valid question.
I have had some great tenets and recently got rid of a tenet from hell. They keep threatening to sue me to get their security back, which I hope and pray that they do, as they have moved out of state and I can not serve them for small claims myself. Not only did they burn me for some rent, cost me some legal fee's, numerous repair fee's (nothing broken but had to send out service people to cover my ass), and on top of it all a fucking huge plumbing fee to switch that unit from septic to sewer- Which provides zero equity or property value. In layman's terms, that unit will be in the red for around 3 years from the day I had it done. Assuming no other repairs, leaving out property tax and all of that etc.
Those tenets I got rid of knew every trick in the book and how to abuse landlord tenet law to no end. Had the city called on me 3-4 times for code violation complaints- never found any. Got the run around with serving them. Had repair issues called in all of the time. Rent withheld for fake reasons. Useless crap left on purpose when they vacated late at night that I had to inventory and legally store by law for a set period of time. Blah, blah, blah.
