    It probably doesn’t apply to many people posting here or in general, but if you became a landlord how did your view of tenants change?

      Son of a landlord, we set our rent lower than market price and generally get university students

      Tenants can be anything, some just pick to rent because it’s just a temporary place to stay and we don’t have as bad a problem as America does

      Our worst renter was a business owner that did not pay rent for their business location for 4 months before disappearing

      My father never evicted anyone, though A university student we once had was paying 77% less than the market before leaving after his study ended (3000 Vs 13000)
