    Because the last tenant put holes in the walls, their dog's piss caused the floor to lift, and the shower they plugged then overflowed fucked up the bathroom?

    So there are repairs to do in order to make the place livable and then time to find somebody else who won't just wreck the place again?

    Yeah there are lots of shit landlords but one of the continuing factors is the remaining good ones with a basement suite etc bailed after terrible tenants.

    A vacancy tax is a good idea but there needs to be caveats for timelines especially if stuff like reasonable maintenance/repairs is taken into consideration.

    Ironically my friends who bitched about "shit landlords" also happened to be the drinkin' smokin' big-dog-ownin' types who were the worst type of tenants and ruined shit for everyone else

    Oh no, instead of getting money for doing nothing you will get money for paying someone to do a cosmetic repair once every several years. Should I feel sorry for you? I entered a landlord mode so I forgot what empathy is, so I need help here.

      Given what you told me, it seems to me that you're simply buying shitty oil. I don't blame you, a lot of cannabis oils suck, especially the 80-95% THC junk. The people producing that shit only care about making the number go up. That's why buds still wreck your shit; cause they naturally contain the terpenes you're not getting from your vape.

      You need to be pickier with your oil, and only go with full spectrum extracts derived from fresh cannabis. None of that frozen or botanical terp shit. With the right concentrate, you won't even miss buds.

      I specifically get top-shelf live resin. A gram of which can last me 2 weeks, since I only take 1-2 hits a day. A bowl of bud will get me as high, but not last as long. That's really the only difference I see.

        With homelessness exploding due to how the asset-owning Parasite Class is jacking rents into the stratosphere, why is any residential property vacant at this time?

        Vacant residential properties should be taxed out the nose - well above any rent or price appreciation - until they are occupied by legitimate tenants.

            Joints (fingers, elbows), lower back. Relieves pain and symptoms. Plus it's just made with coconut oil so you can actually bake with it, lol.

                      Yeah i saw the clarification, everyone's kinda piling ontop of you and I don't think u 100% deserve it, I was just trying to offer a bit of outside refection incase u needed it. Sounds like u got it under control lol, but like maybe don't call people boomers that just enjoy a joint or prefer to smoke. Shit effects everyone differently and different terps hit people people in varying ways based on method. Happy token

                        You can still get in trouble for just those few grams in some jurisdictions.

                        Most jurisdictions will try to tack on intent to distribute if you have over an ounce or two, because they know they can.

                          Had to move for my job, but didn’t want to sell our house.

                          Decided to rent it. Lucked into some awesome renters.

                          We haven’t raised the rent on them in 7 years. We fix things when they ask. They respect the property.

                          If they moved or bought a house they’d be paying significantly more monthly. Instead they’re using their extra money to save for their own house and to get their business off the ground.

                          This feels like a win win? If we had sold, it’d probably be an AirBnB now. How does this make me shit?

                            Imagine trying to understand different perspectives.

                            Critical thinking really is dead if this is the kind of attitude you think is acceptable.

                              Your arguing with someone who's head is far too deep in their own ass to actually understand what you're saying.

                              It's frustrating, very frustrating, that this is the lowest common denominator on the Internet today. And it's only getting worse as kids grow up under the thumb of their corporate spoon fed news feeds.

                                I know i am going to be down voted but here goes.

                                You didn't want to sell your home to a family who could have really used it, instead you wanted to keep it and make money off someone for 7 whole years.

                                You are keeping property you don't need whilst talking about how you help people to get their own home, seems like a poor justification to me.

                                This feels like a win win? If we had sold, it’d probably be an AirBnB now. How does this make me shit?

                                You don't know that it would have become an air bnb, you are just using whataboutism to make yourself look better by comparison. And if it did that's not on you, but trying to justify renting additional properties by saying you "saved it" from becoming an air bnb instead is so shitty. Like wow you saved the house from being used in that way here is your rental payment.

                                You aren't saving people money by taking rental payments, you aren't a hero for potentially stopping someone from using the property as an airbnb, you are a landlord.

                                  One thing to note is that when you make it the smell is pungent. Your neighbours will know and your house may smell for a while.

                                  There are many websites with instructions on how to make it.

                                      Thanks. I made some butter once, I don't remember it being smelly. It was a small quantity though. And I didn't use coconut oil but actual butter, although I doubt this would change anything.

                                        No, a lot are vacant because they're purchased as "investments" and just sit there empty. No work is being done on them.

                                          This reminded me of a story that happened when I was still in the Navy.

                                          I was stationed in San Diego and I had a friend who had gotten out and became a sheriff's deputy, in a nearby city, and he offered to let me do a ride along with him for a the day.

                                          There were a couple of things that happened that changed my opinion of him and cops in general (I am 99% ACAB now though).

                                          Towards the end of the day, someone made a call that someone was smoking meth in a motel room. My friend was called in to assist the cop already there.

                                          We got there and he had me stand back until he waved me in a few minutes later.

                                          I walked up and the OP cop had, what looked like, two skater types sitting on the curb just outside their motel room. Still teenagers.

                                          My friend said he needed me to help toss the room, looking for drugs while the other cop questioned them.

                                          Going into the room, my friend asked the kids to do him a favor and just tell him where the drugs were. They told him it was behind one of the nightstand drawers.

                                          Sure enough it was there (sandwich bag of pot), but my friend said we still needed to search, just in case there really was meth, or something else illegal.

                                          While we searched, I could hear the cop question the kids. They were from a town over and just got paid. They both lived at home and just needed a place to smoke.

                                          In the room was a new skate board deck, some Sonic, and an Xbox with some games. No meth. They were begging for them not to call their parents and I just thought these kids were fucked.

                                          We finished searching and came out, my friend gave the pot to the other cop.

                                          This part is what blew my mind.

                                          My friend looks at the kids and says, "Let me guess. You were both smoking and some guy smelled the pot, knocked on your door and asked to have some and you told him to fuck off?"

                                          At no point did the kids say anything about someone knocking on their door.

                                          The kids looked flabbergasted and stammered, "How did you know?", to which my friend said that was who probably called in, saying someone was smoking meth.

                                          They then took the handcuffs off and my friend then says, "Next time, don't answer the door."

                                          The other cop then GIVES THEM THE POT BACK, and we all walk away.

                                          I was sure those poor kids were fucked and I said as much. My friend then said, "I don't give a shit about pot. Kids don't break into Grandma's house and rob her so they can get money to buy pot.

                                          Yeah, ACAB because the "good" ones don't stand up to the bad ones, but some do do the right thing, at least sometimes. In this case, arresting them would have created a situation where they're much worse off, and they end up doing more crime. Meanwhile, they didn't do any harm and just wanted to hang out peacefully by themselves. Our criminal "justice" system creates more criminals than it removes.
