[@sashabenoit1518]

She put him through a personal hell?!? This dude basically got a $19k loan interest free for 4 years, was able to put his mother in a home right away, didn't lose any money because she paid for the month he was out without argument and was super patient for 4 years getting paid back in small sums. This guy's nuts 😳

[@aydinsha]

You're semi nuts like that guy. That's not how it works. If you don't make a lot of money and suddenly need a $20k lump sum to pay for some surgery and you sell your car in order to pay for it, and when the sale goes through you get the surgery and pay the $20k, you are now out the money. If the buyer comes around next week saying he decides he doesn't like the car and demands his $20k back wtf are you going to do about it? The only thing you can do is offer him to resell it and once that happens pay him back. Now let's say in this case the only new buyer is only willing to buy it using 6 installments over a year. Obviously you can't pay it all back at once so you're going to pay back in parts. In the case of rent you're losing money if you pay the full income back each month because you're then stuck making double payments and losing income. The fair thing would be to pay over double or triple the timeframe which would on this case be 1yr or 1 5yrs. So yea 4yrs was a lot. But at the end of the day the Asian lady was the one breaking a contract and putting both of them in the situation.

[@aydinsha]

@Public Square exactly. Except even worse you had to use that 20k right away for medical bills so you literally don't have it. And you can't pay exactly what the new buyer is giving you or else you're still losing money. So you can maybe pay half or a third on order to deal with with the unexpected loan you're stuck with.

[@sashabenoit1518]

I agree with you guys that he was put into a loan unexpectedly that he didn't ask for. I'm just saying it worked out for him because he needed that money right away, according to him, to be able to pay for his mother's care in a nursing home. So, he had all that money upfront to do that got to keep the months rent so he wasn't out any money AND got a new tenant right away so he was collecting rent all that time. If she did move in he wouldn't have seen another rent check for over half a year because she paid 6 months upfront and that money still would have gone to his mothers care. At least this way it was kind of a blessing in disguise that he had that money upfront still got rent checks every month and got to pay it off slowly in small sums he could afford over the course of 4 years. Just saying it seemed to work better for him that she backed out and he found another tenant right away.. but that's just my opinion 🤷‍♀️

[@sashabenoit1518]

And it most definitely is an interest free loan! Whether he wanted or asked for the loan or not is completely irrelevant and has nothing to do with paying interest on a loan. Interest is a percentage of money you pay extra to have a loan. He paid her back exact dollar for dollar, nothing more, no interest. So yes, it most definitely is an interest free loan by definition!

First off, the entire deposit should have been paid back immediately. Landlords aren't supposed to spend your deposit at all...they're supposed to put it in an account and hold on to it. Second, its really strange to me he went out and spent her entire first 6 months of rent before she even moved in. What if the place had issues, like an appliance goes out? Or the roof needs fixing? Would he have had the cash to pay for that?

[@wynottgivemore9274]

First off ,even the judge said landlords don't need to put that in an account and keep it safe... And second stupidity is what stupidity does...the reason I rent is because I cannot come up with a deposit for a 🏠 of my own,and thipese people throw around nearly 20$ dollars for the first 6months rent!!!
