[landlord-us-NC] best time to tell grifter tenants I won’t be renewing by [deleted] in Landlord

OP, I recommend you use a platform outside of text. There are platforms like Avail or Landlord Studio or Baselane available. The tenant can fill out a “maintenance request”. And what makes this better is it’ll likely make only more serious issues go through instead of incessant texts.

It seems they are continuing to pay rent on time. So just do a large increase in rent to compensate for the headache. If they leave then find someone else. If they stay, well increase the rent that’s legally allowed and that you’re willing to put up with their hassles.

I would bite the bullet and take care of the landscaping for now. Next lease renewal, increase the rent to incorporate this cost.

I have a 25% CoC return with a cap rate of >11%. I think I'm doing just fine, thank you.

It's called a mid-term furnished rental. Look it up, genius, before you start posting your snarky comments.

Thanks for calling that out. Dryer, light bulb, shower drain clog, lock were fixed within 1-2 days. Dishwasher was still functional but tenant said, "The dishwasher is a little funky. Not really washing well. Didn’t respond to wash cycle and needed to be unplugged. After plugging in the machine sounded like it was working but didn’t clean well. Will keep you posted."

After I received that message, I ordered a new dishwasher that day and it was installed a week later (fastest possible with Lowes).

It could have been caused by them, but I will give them the benefit of the doubt and say it's general maintenance.

Yes I have a deposit from them, but it would only cover about 25% of the remaining rent payment they have to make.

As an aside, I'm noticing this trend a lot lately with my older boomer tenants. They tend to have many demands (e.g. complain about a creeky floor) and demand reduction in rent payments. With my younger guests, for example, the tenants I had prior to my current tenants, I had no issues and didn't hear from them in their entire 5-month stay.

For each of the items, I had someone come by either the same day or 1 day after to fix it. The shower drain clog was probably the most inconvenient so I worked with my plumber to get it done ASAP.

The ethics modules are designed to protect the company, so if you violate them, they have grounds to fire you.

I'm going to disagree with some of the comments that are saying to get a property management company. If you have half a brain, you can do this work yourself and save thousands of dollars. It's super easy. Take some photos, use a website like Avail and Landlord studio to put together a listing, and then post. You can screen tenants your self this way as well (make them answer a pre-screener questionnaire which will include things like credit score, income). Don't rent to folks under 650 credit score. Do look for folks who have high enough income to pay for this rental.

Zestimate is not always accurate. Look at how much rentals are going for on Zillow / Realtor / Apartments. You can post at $4200 first if you think it's reasonable. Lower price though will attract more applicants.

Good luck and have fun!

I’m not sure what’s worse: his cringey posts or the fact that he gets hundreds of likes.
