they used to have an on-call maintenance person that could unlock your apartment, but then a couple of years ago the leasing office that ran three buildings got bought by a bigger property management company that runs thousands

I don’t understand why you guys are flaming me. My house is used as a short term housing. I started doing it during covid for traveling nurses when nobody would rent to them. Then I still continued for people who were displaced. More recently I have someone from Maui and needed temporary housing while they were rebuilding their home.
I would have sold it but only do this for tax purposes. I’m well below the market only covering my mortgage and taxes.
Not all of us are assholes and leeches. There is clearly a need that hotels and Airbnb’s are leeching over. Some of us care about our community and are not trying to better ourselves.
Yes, all of you are leeches. You take another person’s hard-earned money without doing anything to earn it. Owning something is not a job.
If they’re covering your mortgage, these people are buying you your house. Owning a house after a decade or two, even if you really did have nothing else earned in the meantime, is massive profit leeched from others.
So your problem isn’t housing,. It’s capitalism. Car rentals, hotels, Airbnb’s, banquet halls, churches, even parking lots are no different from what I’m doing.
Also, I don’t sit around and do nothing. I had to replace the HVAC system last year that cost me 25k. Replace the range and continue paying the landscapers to maintain the house.
“I allow needy people to have food. I’m not like one of those greedy people who stand between good people and their needs. Just your humble, reasonable person who does the same.”
It’s so tiresome.
Do you also expect grocery stores to give food out for free too? It cost the shop owner time and money to provide that service. Or do you feel entitled for all services and stuff others spent time acquiring?
So you call me a leech and you expect grocery stores to give you free food. What contribution did you bring to deserve that food?
What service? The opportunity to pay you? To cover your mortgage and tax? You’re paywalling a human right and saying you’re one of the good ones.
So let me get this straight. When/if you go on vacation and need to temporarily live near the place you’re visiting, you expect that place you’re staying to let you live there for free? Do hotels have to pay mortgages and taxes too?
Thank you for providing an answer to the question posed in the post. I appreciate you contributing constructively to this thread. Now face the wall.
Were you born this much of a demon or was it a choice to remove the human parts of yourself?
