So my Landlord calls me one day last week, and wants to have a sit down. I figured since the lease is up for renewal that he may want to raise the rent or something. So he tells me that he hasn't made a mortgage payment on the house I live in for the past 3 months and is going to let the house go to foreclosure and he is declaring bankruptcy.
On the first I want to give him the rent, and tell him we were moving as soon as I find another house. He acted surprised, he said It's not going to happen for a year, and I said that when last we talked he hadn't made a payment and told me it would take 4-6 months. So I said this is the 4th month, I'm not waiting for the hammer to drop.
He actually thought I was going to just hang around and wait for the bank to kick me out!. He said I can't rent it out now and the house will sit empty, I said well your not making payments, so what difference does it make. Thats when it dawned on me he wants me to stay just to put the rent in his pocket for the next 6 months or so and then move. Well B.S. to that carp he and the bank can fight over the house I won't be there.
So I shut down my box and will wait till I move to set back up. What an asshole, I have never been a day late with the rent, the least he could have done was give me more of a heads up. But I would have just moved sooner, the only real hang up is I have a Great Dane and a Standard Poodle,both with excellent refs. but they are big dogs, even tho the dane sleeps 16 hrs a day.
Just had to vent I really hate landlords most of them are greedy assholes that act like they are doing you a favor by renting their crummy house to you, while not thinking that I am paying their mortgage for them ingrates.
