#rate the landlord
Explore tagged Tumblr posts
Text
Two Ontario residents have created a website that allows tenants to anonymously rate their landlords.
The Rate The Landlord website has grown in popularity since its launch three weeks ago, and now has more than 1,500 reviews from tenants..
The two co-founders — who CBC News agreed not to name over concerns for their safety — said they decided to build the platform because while tenants have to provide a lot of personal information when leasing a property, there is a lack of transparency when it comes to landlords.

Physically, I am getting through it.
Mentally, I am laying on the ground kicking my feet and screaming that it isn't fair.
#i hate that i have to work a second job while im in school#did you know we (grad students) arent technically allowed to have second jobs?#because our funding is supposed to be such a generous stipend that we can focus all our time on studying#lol#lmao even#the grad student stipend hasn't gone up in almost 10 years#and it wasnt great to begin with#at a conservative estimate my rent is going to double when i move out of my current place#and its only the rate it is now because i signed onto a four year lease#landlord has been itching to raise it for a couple years now#frankly the university should be ashamed of whay they're paying us

what if this is the year i finally move out of my horrible little flat. friends of the schalotte blog will be familiar with this sentiment but this time i'm really gonna do it
#i wrote my landlords for a mietzahlungsbestätigung and applied for a new schufa rating#perhaps once i have my documents in place that'll allow me to get serious abt applying for places...#e has been sending me nice ones and i've just been doing nothing about it lol. Enough!

If you're a landlord or a police officer, your livelihood depends on destroying the livelihoods of others. And that's not an exaggeration.
That's why there's no such thing as a good landlord or a good police officer.

bureaucracy...
#1. i try to register for council tax and have to give any previous edi addresses. i enter old postcode. the flat number isn't listed :)#2. i register for broadband & give my new address over the phone. somehow the order defaults to a previous address anyway#luckily i notice and call up to stop the engineer being sent out to a random house at the other end of the country#plusnet take my new details again but say they can't send a guy out for 3 weeks :)#don't have 4G in my new flat and work from home. i ask for a discount for my troubles since it wasn't my fault. they say no :)#3. i try to take my meter readings the day i move in to avoid paying too much energy bill. both meters are so old they've expired :)#i text the previous tenant she says it's an ongoing issue. she pestered the energy company about it for a year. they didn't do anything :)#4. the previous tenant was a filthy human being who has never picked up a duster or hoover in her life#i spend the first 48 hours in the new home cleaning up mouse droppings cobwebs and thick dust from every single surface :)#the landlord apologises and says he will send a cleaner next week. i have already cleaned everything but i accept anyway#5. i pass on my p45 to my new job as soon as possible to make sure i don't get put on the emergency tax rate#HR says this doesn't look right it's dated from six months ago. i say i haven't been working in that time they say ok leave it with us#one month later they contact me again to say hey your p45 is dated from six months ago :))) i say yes i know. i haven't been working#they say oh yes that's right. leave it with us :))))#i'm one minor inconvenience away from ending it all#dear diary

art class is so strange because i practically roleplay being a generic cis guy during it on account of who i sit with (3 generic cis guys). like we talk about the most ‘normal’ stuff its wild…
#its also strange as hell sometimes bc theyre all at least somewhat rich and today we talked about houses and this dude is like#‘oh yeah its funny we sold our house when interest rates were really high so we got way more than its worth haha’#girl what are you a landlord. another guy (the one i sit next to . whos also my friend of many years) was describing the house he’s#moving into soon and hes like ‘yeah weve got a gym in a seperate building with a bathroom and every bedroom has a bathroom and we have#3 lounge rooms for some reason haha and 2 washing machines lol…’#meanwhile im sitting there like. PARDON?#theres also the 3rd guy who sits with us who thankfully wasnt here today and hes kind of just a horrible person

based on that previous post i reblogged:
#eliot posts#i feel bad tho cuz some of this shit like dusting or cleaning the windows or walls is like#a ''once or twice a year when i'm hypomanic or need to move apartments'' chore#and yinz are talkin like you do it regularly#tho granted: shit never seems to get dusty in this apartment that i'm currently living in???#different houses/apartments seem to get dusty at different rates tho. like the house i grew up in was constantly accumulating dust#still didn't dust more than every 6 months then either tho. not til literally cobwebs formed in the corner and mum yelled at me#whoops#i was a messy child#i'm less bad now but i'm still kind of a messy adult if that wasn't clear#but i live alone now and only have occasional guests so no one has to deal w that but me#also. i never have to mow my lawn bc the landlord handles that but i put it down bc it was another common answer

rating the new rv album: chill kill
chill kill: 8/10. i like it. the chorus is good. just can't get over the pop smoke type beat in the back.
knock knock (who's there?): 9/10. "knock knock who's there?" it's me. served as usual.
underwater: 10/10. hips grinding, ass is shaking currently as I'm typing this. this is most def for the r&b girlies. the landlord was at the door most def. bye bye's crown was tilted.
will i ever see you again: 5/10. first off, the beginning sounds like a tech commercial. This instrumental sounds like a damn Samsung ringtone. Giving very much 2016 then and now video. Might have to grown into it. Wendy eating up the notes per usual.
nightmare: 10/10. oh this beat eating. shoulder moving and shit. oh bitch. im floating. I'm levitating and airbending in this bitch. this shit is heavenly. this song name do not fit the vibe. the rap ate. the high note ate. this chorus... bitch im GONE
iced coffee: 9/10. oh so i see red velvet chose levitation for this concept because im just fucking floating. i feel like a fucking princess listening to this shit. im a fucking ballroom rn in a big ass poofy ass dress fucking spinning. this is a royal ass song. "got me like iced coffee" no bitch, got me like belle.
one kiss: 10/10. they said we shaking ass this album cause im throwing it in a circle rn. OH THIS RAP??? THIS BEAT THE CLAPPING. I AM SHAKING MY FUCKINF ASS. CURRENTLY BUCKING. and y'all know how rv loves them soft ass bridges. wendy need a big ass robitussin bc she just hitting notes this whole album.
bulldozer: 8/10. they asking what can you break but they need to be asking what they can they serve bc this album... i actually love this chorus. the raps are amazing as usual. idk why but this song seemed too short (joyuri curse)
wings: 10/10. the beginning is so beautiful omg. i can def see y'all youtube vloggers using this. this is so sweet sounding. like this makes me feel like i'm walking down the street with my partner or something. this song makes me appreciate life. once again, Wendy eating up these notes. SHE SAID "SPREAD YOUR WINGSS" TAKE US TO CHRUCH MISS WENDYYY.
scenery: 10/10. im yearning over someone i never met. im thinking about the good times with this person. how did they do me so well. i feel like im in a loving relationship with this song. i can see this playing during a rainy love confession scene in a kdrama. this song is so soft and i love it. it smells like fabric softener, coffee, and a rainy day.
favs: iced coffee, nightmare, and underwater.
fave song: underwater.
in conclusion: a bunch of booty shaking songs in mix with some songs that got you floating in this bitch. the songs are versatile. red velvet b-sides never fail to eat. someone give wendy some lemon water and robitussin bc she was hitting notes this whole album. i'll give it a 9/10.
#they said the landlord was at the DOOR#they was not playing#got me dancing at 4:48 AM on a school night#red velvet#red velvet chill kill#kpop#ratings#joy red velvet#wendy red velvet#seulgi red velvet#yeri red velvet#irene red velvet#chill kill

so funny story, i did a pub quiz today, and during the break the quiz master came up to me and was like "where were you last time??" and i was like ??! because i don't know this man and this was my first time at this particular pub quiz, so i was like "umm idk why?" and he said "because we had a question about arctic monkeys last week and no one knew the answer!" so again, i was like ?? until i remembered i was wearing an arctic monkeys shirt lol.
so then i asked him what the question was, and it was just 'guess the intro' and it was do i wanna know?? and no one knew???? what the heck. so i told him even my mum knows that one and he was like "i know right??" so i said "okay well clearly this town needs to be educated so you should do an entirely arctic monkeys themed pub quiz sometime" and he said "maybe i will" and i think he was joking but obviously i am now going to email them about it every week until it happens
#unfortunately when i got home#fairly intoxicated#the lock to my flat broke and i was locked out lmao#and then i had to call an emergency locksmith because it was sunday evening#and then my landlord got into a fight with him because he thought the rates were extorionate#anyway so that was fun#good thing i was with friends lol so we just ordered pizza and smoked and let them argue#i'm finally inside now#so yes i've had a day#anyway not sure why i'm telling you all this bc no one care but if anyone read this far:#hope you're having a lovely sunday evening! 💛#arctic monkeys#minnie talks

so after 3 months of unemployment due to redundancy right as winter was hitting hospitality business HARD in cornwall, i've had 2 interviews in 2 days (both assistant manager positions) (and both offering £31,000+ !!) and also 3 flat viewings in both locations,, i think i might finally be ok... maybe. wish me luck lol i've not been coping well which is why i ended up back on tumblr the past few months when i had been mainly off here for like 2 years haha
#my current flat heating bill is fucking me over due to an EPC rating of the lowest bracket in E#and the heaters just don't produce much heat regardless despite bleeding them#and getting a friend who does that sort of stuff to check it out#so it's a mains issue and the landlord is a C U Next Tuesday soooo#i've been ✨stressed✨#chandler.txt

pointlessly rearranging the furniture in my apartment just to feel something
#every six months I'll be taken by the urge to move somewhere else#and i have to remind myself my rent is below market rates and i need to cling to this apartment until the landlord tosses me#and so. rearranging furniture just to feel something#reilly.txt

My medical chart officially has me labeled as a COVID long hauler 🙃
#fml#I *knew* that if I ever caught that damn virus I’d get long COVID#I know my body well enough to know that was practically inevitable#I am so pissed at our old landlord for getting us all sick#he refuses to acknowledge he even had COVID#even tho all three of us got sick with COVID after he showed up coughing and spread his germs everywhere#I fucking finally got out of that house and I still can’t escape it because that asshole might have permanently gotten me sick#after I avoided that stupid ass virus for three goddamned years#now my heart rate and my lungs are screwed up

#wh. um. fuck.#dad's told me about my nan's will#and uh.#the money goes first to my grandad's looking after obviously#but um once he's not around (in a year or two dad says‚ with his alzheimers)#then it's split between the family in percentages ive forgotten - including my mum‚ which is lovely#but basically in two/three years. i could have enough money to buy my own place.#ive no idea what my credit rating looks like in the least but i guess i have that amount of time to find out and sort it out#i imagine it's not very good - i don't have a credit card or anything like that but i haven't used my overdraft since i was at uni#but dad says i could get 60 grand! so if i buy somewhere with 60k up front and the rest as mortgage? right?#i have no clue whatsoever how to do all that stuff or even like how much furniture costs or how to choose a mattress or anything#ive never had anything like that new#so um. yeah. that's. something#i don't know what to do with it or anything. but it's a thing.#for now i need to go back and find a flat my own cs ive got like 6 weeks now to move from this place#and i have to ring the estate agent landlord people to find out if i can just move upstairs or what. cs that'd be my first choice honestly#but um. my brains gone to mush#i knew my grandparents were well-off but i didn't know it was by that much#or that id get such a high percentage - tho that's half what my dad's getting so i guess that makes sense#he says he's gonna buy a boat and go to south america#which sounds bonkers honestly like he's not a sailor whatsoever#but i guess he's a lot more sensible now he's been sober a year than he ever was when i was a kid

Literally woke up this morning and had to mop the entire bathroom floor up bc it was a lake
#istg i cant wait to get my own place#my landlord operates this rental on a shoestring budget#and rent went up 300$ bc of a change in mortgage rate#like#if im gonna pay a mortgage it may as well be my own fucking mortgage for fucks sake

My boss sends me an email
“do you have a second to call me?”
Anxiety:
so I call her and she tells me I’m getting a promotion and a 25% pay raise, the best raise I’ve got since starting this job
so I was worried for nothing.
Will I get anxious again the next time my boss needs to talk to me one-on-one
you know it.
#personal#work stuff#humble brag ig#I'm excited for the raise#it'll be great and is much needed#and will probably help me out of this shitty apartment#and maybe afford to buy a house in the area that doesn't need tons of work#that is after the rates go down#and if I can get approved before landlords buy up the market
