What are the experiences and lessons of landlords in renting houses?

As a landlord, I will inevitably meet some wonderful renters whose behavior is ridiculous. Below I will share some stories of wonderful renters I have met.

"Girlfriend Group" for Collective Renting

Once, I rented a house with three bedrooms and one living room to a group of young girls who called themselves "girlfriends group". At first, they were friendly, but before long, they began to create all kinds of problems. They often come home late, and even once woke up the whole floor in the middle of the night. They also often chat loudly in public areas, which brings trouble to other tenants. Finally, I had to terminate their lease contract.

Money-saving "refugees"

A young man rented a small single room of mine. He looks untidy and his room is in a mess. He has been delaying paying the rent, and after I urged him many times, he finally paid the rent for two months. But he said he needed to refund the rent because he was looking for a better job and needed to save the rent. I agreed to his request to withdraw the rent, but not long after, I found that after he moved out, there was a lot of garbage and some unprocessed food in the house, which made the room stink. I spent the whole day cleaning this room, and I was very angry and disappointed.

"Internet Red Man" who loves hype

Once, I rented a small single room to a young girl. She told me that she is an "internet celebrity" and often posts her daily life online. She even told me that she could promote my rented house online. I'm not interested in her behavior, but I didn't expect that when she recorded a video in her room, she made the whole house a mess and even destroyed some housing facilities. I put her in charge of repairing the damage. She not only refused to admit her mistake, but also claimed that she was "hyping".

The above three examples are just some wonderful renters I met as a landlord. Although the behavior of these renters is a headache, I have learned some experiences and lessons from it. Here are some experiences and lessons that I think are useful:

Maintain good communication and relationship with renters. Good communication and relationships can prevent some small problems from becoming big problems. The lease contract should contain clear responsibilities and obligations to ensure that the lessee clearly knows his responsibilities.

Conduct a background check on renters. A background check on renters can prevent some bad renters from moving in, thus reducing some risks.

Rent-paying behavior of renters can predict their overall behavior. Renters' arrears in rent may affect their overall behavior.

Every renter has his own code of conduct and values. As landlords, we should respect the lifestyle and beliefs of renters.

The responsibility of the facilities and decoration in the house should be clearly stipulated in the lease contract to avoid damage to the facilities.

As a landlord, you should not only have good housing resources, but also have the ability to understand and observe renters. At the same time, we should try our best to create a warm, comfortable and safe living environment for renters. Finally, I hope that every renter can abide by the rental contract and social morality and create a harmonious rental life.
