More likely that they wanted to evade taxes.


You obviously don't know how taxes work.

I can't exactly say what prompted me to start this post beyond that it was a slightly surreal moment realizing you'd likely made someone's life complicated in just a few minutes of emails. But I am amused by the responses and getting some proper laughs from them.

There's no shortage of student housing surrounding the university and adjoining neighborhoods are predominately group homes for the students so I'm not losing sleep if several grad students have to move. I was intrigued by the suggestion that perhaps parents of a student had bought the house, but the listing clearly describes five furnished bedrooms for rent in a five bedroom house, so who knows what the story is.

Asking rent was $1000+ per bedroom. If a family had bought this house with 20% down, monthly PITI would probably be $4k. Food for thought. The neighborhood association prez was not pleased by this discovery. Understandably. I doubt people would have issues with a homeowner renting a spare room in the attic to a grad student, which likely does/has happened as most surrounding owners are faculty. But buying a house in this neighborhood expressly to rent it out as a group home is a different story. So I don't feel guilty in the long run. If that was the intention of the buyers, they had several other neighborhoods nearby where this could have been done. So they're learning a lesson.


So it is a 5 bedroom, and they are asking $1k a month per room with PITI $4k.

Their expenses, maintenance, etc are on top of that. You think they are making bank on this? You are delusional and also psychotic to be invested in this…. but they are probably more delusional for thinking this will make them money.


OP here. No. I was thinking the same as you. That if someone bought this as an investment, they're not being very smart, which is why I do wonder what the full story is behind the house. Possibly they bought it with the intention of moving in then something changed and they couldn't and are thinking they can rent it out as a group house for more money rather than a SFH rental because based on the scant rental data I have for SFHs, this would probably rent for 3500-4000, below the hypothetical 5k+ as a group. Mind you, if they took out a conventional mortgage then they're probably in trouble with the mortgage company sooner or later because mortgage rates are different for properties bought as rentals.

Sooner or later the illegal group house would have been discovered and reported. House closed last December. I'm not feeling guilty and I'm laughing at the hysterical people on here thinking I deprived poor students of housing. I doubt most of you own houses in family neighborhoods.

I really am not cackling and being gleeful. I do feel sorry for the owner if he or she thought they were just making a decent investment near a university and didn't do their research carefully.



What exactly are you looking for, op? You keep posting and repeating that you don't regret your decision etc but have yet to make clear what you are seeking besides attention.

This will be a DCUM first but I am praying you are correct; I need this to be a troll. If this is for real, I'm scared and deeply sad.


Op here. Why are you scared and deeply sad because I reported what might have been an illegal group home?

At a minimum, a non-licensed rental property means it's not subject to city regulations governing the safety and wellbeing of rental properties and leaves tenants at the mercy of unregulated landlords. Is that a good thing? Perhaps I did a service? Who knows.


WOW! Now you're trying to pat yourself on the back for getting multiple students evicted? You are a such a garbage person I am actually in awe.

Your previous post disagrees.

OP here. I'm amused at the posters here. It's clear some posters (perhaps the same poster repeatedly posting) has issues. Calling people POS is a good sign. I'll leave it to that and say no more.

Enjoy your afternoon.

Reading most of the responses one would think these posters own out of state properties they are renting out illegally. You all just don’t have money and opportunities to do so or you’d do it. Is that it?

Eff you. You don't get to bend the rules at the expense of someone else's comfort because they have less money than you.

Can I go rape a couple women because I'm in a dry spell and also happen to be broke?

Your first thought about breaking rules automatically goes to r*pe? Seriously, what is wrong with you? That's messed up

Just ringing the bell loudly so people in the back can hear. The point stays the same. You don't get a pass on breaking the rules because you're broke. Or at least you shouldn't in a world I run.

In a casual hopeful browsing of recent listings (none for sale, of course), I did spy a rental, but on a university website for grad students looking for housing. Was intrigued and opened the link. Is being rented out on a room by room basis, targeted to university grad students. I looked up the ownership and it's owned by out of state owners, and surprisingly, it had sold last fall for a tidy sum.

I sent the link to the neighborhood president and said this doesn't seem legal. A few days later I got a response, they were not aware either and have notified the city, who confirmed it's not a legal situation and zoning caps house to just three unrelated people but house is also not registered with city as a rental either and to be registered as a rental it needs to meet certain requirements etc cetera. Housing inspectors are being deployed as we speak.

So... someone is getting into trouble, potentially expensive trouble. All because of me. Can't say I feel rosy about it. But for any wannabe investors out there, be really careful and know what you're getting into before you decide to invest in renting a house in a family neighborhood.


Why in Hell would you do such a thing? Were you born nasty? What is acutally WRONG with you?

Do you understand the old bordello laws are outdated?

You should be ashamed.

MYOB. I feel sorry for any current and future neighbor of yours.
(and no, I do not live in or own a rental home of any kind).

Take your r*pe fantasies elsewhere. Disgusting. You literally couldn't wait to compare it to housing (or probably, anything).

This is why we choose the bear.
