[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does the person next door own the home. You are a renter.

The person next door is clearly crazy. But you are "nesting"

I own a nice place I rent out. Every tenant starts out, I love living in your place, your house is so nice. Slowly I get rent with my address on their checks, my address on return envelope, perfectly fine. But slowly it becomes our backyard, or I noticed you said "you own a piece of Grass on side of house" My last tenant I noticed as soon as she called and said in year three her outlet is broken and her toliet is running. I can by to fix as I was free and a sunday, she asked me to take of my shoes, I fixed it and did not even offer a cup of coffee she was drinking. You are in the bitter tenant phase.

Get out an buy a place. My noisy neighbor never ever talks to my neighbors, but she keeps an eye on my place. My tenants come and go every 3-4 years, my neighbor is there for good.

My last tenant they finally bought a house and our very happy. I was glad to be rid of her and her husband.

I did not raise rent for four years, I gave them a good price yet by year two started up with they "our house stuff"

Time to go let the next tenant deal with it. There is an old saying if you try to make a crazy person non-crazy only thing that will happen is you will end up crazy.

You are absolutely ridiculous. It's completely natural for renters to refer to their homes as "theirs". And they are under no obligation to suck up to you, endure your dirty shoes in their place of abode, or offer you a drink, for goodness' sakes!  My BIL and MIL are long-time landlords, and they never lord it over their renters as you do. What's wrong with you?

Omg, this!

Your address is on your tenants checks?
Your address is on the return address on the envelope?

What address SHOULD they put on these things?

Your entire post is beyond petty and you sound like you despise being a landlord.
Setting your tenants up for failure from the moment they move in (by 3 months they're doing this, etc).
Keeping a running tally of BS like this is so passive-aggressive -- why not have the balls to actually say something to them?

And I have news for you... if they're paying you rent every month, it IS their home for the period that they paid, period.

I rented myself many years, 14 years.  Landlords I never contacted,  most part I did not  know  who owned building. I did not register my car, vote or use building for tax address or paychecks. I lived several buildings so a pain to keep switching.

I have rented to three newlywed couples. Nesting starts innocently, address in checks, buying mailing envelopes, using address paychecks, then tax return. Then the weirdness as calling it their kitchen, their toilet. It moves on to thanksgiving at their house, onto asking for a pet.

Next asking to change things, like one did built into bookshelves, slowly becomes resentment to writing you a check each month, to anger as home prices rise and they debate having a kid in apartment. Till the end of relationship where you stop raising rents.

I have rented till three newlywed couples. All great, but between years 3-5 same thing.

I am a better tenant. Last place I lived 300 miles away, only slept in unit four days a week, no mail or guests.

My relationship as tenant I want nothing to do with owner. My relationship as landlord, you are a head on a bed, just sleep there till you buy a house. Don’t nest. [/quote]
