Scumlords, Slumlords.... you decide.

Utter pieces of shit who want to extort rent from the vulnerable and sidestep planning laws.

Hotel owner tried to claim that rooms it was letting out were 'flat's because they had a microwave, fridge, kettle, and bathroom.

So far they've wasted thousands of taxpayer money by challenging the council and losing twice, and are continuing to appeal.

All because they don't want the extra scrutiny and cost by registering as a HMO.

Mieterin mit vier Kindern fristlos gekündigt - nachdem NDR über massiven Schimmel in Wohnung berichtet

https://www.ndr.de/nachrichten/niedersachsen/braunschweig_harz_goettingen/nach-ndr-bericht-ueber-zustaende-in-wohnung-mieterin-fristlos-gekuendigt,wohnblock-126.html

> Eine Mieterin aus dem problembehafteten Wohnblock in der Groner Landstraße in Göttingen hat dem NDR vergangene Woche den schlechten Zustand ihrer Wohnung gezeigt. Am Montag hat sie die fristlose Kündigung erhalten.

Schon vor Jahrzehnten, als ich noch in Göttingen lebte, gehörte dieses Gebäude (neben dem Iduna Zentrum) zu den schlimmsten Wohnbunkern in Göttingen.

Es ist unfassbar, dass sowas Jahrzehnte möglich ist, solche katastrophalen Wohnbedingungen aufrechtzuerhalten.

AI 'hallucinations' could prove real problem for controversial owner of fire-ravaged property | CBC News

As the owner of a fire-ravaged Vancouver property he's been accused of neglecting, Fu De Ren has defended himself in civil proceedings and bylaw trials. But his inclusion of alleged AI "hallucinations" as part of a self-represented bid to cut his property's assessed value in half may end up costing him money.

Why do landlords, who canonically are rich bastards, always pick the cheapest fixtures like faucets?

It would literally save them money if they picked metal fixtures that last decades instead of plastic mix shitbits that decay in a couple of years.

Sincerely: Renter sick of everything breaking down.

(First it was toilet button....twice. Had to have hand shower swapped when it busted. Our shower fixtures are literally chipping off, and now our faucet is dying.)

“The family living at this address were particularly vulnerable as they did not have alternate housing options and had all suffered health issues likely as a result of the condition of the property."

zoning, prisons, worker owned coops, trans rights, localizing food.

The dirt is waiting for your attention.

fights: landlords, cops, bosses, agency erosion, and threats to starve out any progressive movement

Think of creative after-life punishments for slumlords. Dante didn't include the slumlord category so you can help complete his work.
