It was a 4chan meme to "trigger the lefties", but turned into a shitpost.
consider me triggered
.....do other countries seriously lack that much respect that they don't even tip their landlords? my god what a shithole the rest of the world is
I've heard of cow tipping. Is landlord tipping the same sort of thing?
But what about landlord tipping?
Idk, it sounds plausible.
but i saw it happen in the barnyard movie
Yeah. By paying the mortgage plus 30% on the property they bought at double a fair market rate just to keep me from buying it for myself.
I love paying double in rent what I would pay for a market-rate mortgage and getting no equity in return.
Thanks landlords!

It's totally different where I live (in the San Francisco Bay Area)... Renting is cheaper than buying here. A lot of the landlords bought their property a long time ago when it was much cheaper.
If it's that simple, why don't you just buy somewhere?
It was for me, so I did. Went from paying £375/m rent to £200/m mortgage.
Because I don't qualify for a mortgage for double the fair market rate. That's why they're willing to pay so much for the properties. It keeps us from buying them.
Because banks for some reason think that people can't afford to pay a mortgage that's less than their current rent.
Most people can't do that without leaving the community they have roots in
Some landlords that are complete assholes ask, but I doubt you'll actually see anybody actually do it.
No we don't, but they wish we would.
Tipping your landlord is essential for a good relationship. Not tipping them is basically wage theft.
how do I report this
Press the crosspost button to repost! And tip your landlord.
The "inadequate pay" one got me rolling. 😂
Inadequate pay for what exactly? Owning some land and squeezing money from the people who actually take care of it? Fuck landlords!
I don't rent currently, but if I do end up renting out a room, I got the inadequate pay for the house by first delivering pizzas and then manufacturing shit.
For all the services they provide us
Thank you, I needed a good laugh today. 😂
I'm glad I could help, upvotes on the left. Or wherever they are. That's my obligatory tip!
Don't steal! You should rent it. And tip OP.
I would but my low, low income as a landlord with only 14 properties makes that impossible.

Can't believe tipping landlords was considered even as a meme lol
Sounds overltly American tbh
Worst landlord laws I've ever seen was in Japan. You have to pay them a welcome fee and a key fee on top of your bond and rent when you sign a lease.
In Berlin they now expect a blowie on top.
Korea has an interesting system. You pay a single (very large) deposit when you move in, and you get the entire deposit back when you move out. The landlord keeps only the interest on the deposit.
Hey, at least key fee rhymes

Lmfao.
My landlord's hardwork: Calling the service repair guy. Making sure the property management company pays him my rent. Paying for a new AC he cheaped out on decades ago.
He has multiple properties. I don't know if it's possible to use each one at the same time, if so that's a wild power, and I would totally not rent them out.
And if the pay is inadequate maybe he should get a job lol
Sounds like your landlord is underpaid tbh
If they're landlords, the correct term for a tenant is landslave
Landserf would be a more accurate term.
