Re: What makes a good landlord?

[identity profile] mimi-sardinia.livejournal.com 2015-08-27 01:29 pm (UTC)(link)
I feel like I am in a slightly privileged situation when it comes to my landlord, as I'm in a Department of Housing place and the Department is usually fairly good.

Off the top of my head, I'd say prompt to respond to emergencies, flexible about rent (both payment options and and payment times).

I would say cat-friendly but the reason I don't have a cat is because while the Department is fine with pets, my house is in an independent townhouse development whose body corporate doesn't allow cats. We haven't left because despite that, it's a nice place and the waiting list for Department places would mean shifting would take time, and we'd likely get a place not half as nice.

Though because the place I'm in has a separate body corporate, there's also a few issues with that, but most of them have improved when the manager changed a few years ago. The guy who used to be manager was lazy as fuck and too busy with doing his own shit to do anything.. Since the new guy took over, stuff actually gets done. (The Department only has authority to do stuff inside our townhouse, communal areas are body corporate.)

The other thing that comes to mind is something I only know through Mum's tales - a landlord who does not harass, pester, phone at all hours, make unexpected visits without prior notice, then try to harass further after the tenants move out. Mum had problems with one landlord doing this when I was around 7-8 years old. I didn't notice it, but I was kid then so... *Shrug*
