How I Saved $25k in 3 Years (down payment)

      Not always. I will usually gauge their anger levels if something bad happens and determine what they want. Sometimes I will flat out ask them "what can I do to make this right for you? What do you think is fair?". They usually will tell me. At the end of the day, people want you to be understanding and not blame things. They want you to take ownership and say sorry and try to resolve it asap. You are in the customer service world now, you must cater to your customers. They are bringing you the reviews and revenue.

    Love it! Question, has anyone ever damaged or broken anything? If yes, what happened and how did it get fixed?

    • @ChrisAke
      @ChrisAke 25 дней назад

      Great question! So, I did in fact have a few people break stuff. One time specifically, someone broke a bed frame. They claimed, "it broke randomly at night"... which I find suspicious but I don't care really how it broke. I just cared they would pay for it. So I simply asked them if they would pay for this and they agreed! The sent me a Zelle pay right to our bank and covered the cost of the new bed frame. I took that as a win-win and was happy with how it ended up. I know Air BnB does offer claims and insurance as well. I never dove deep into that or looked much into it yet because we haven't done much through that. Luckily the guests covered the cost for us.

    More context: This is a commercial unit. The squatter was pretty friendly, he was there for about 3 weeks he told me. We are in the middle of touring this place for commercial tenants and I randomly found him. He was very polite, was not mad at us or did not damage anything. It was a good experience overall and hope he got the help he needed! Had I known he was there, I would have brought him a few nice meals as a parting gift. I only saw the breadsticks and coke a colas after he left.

    Oh noooooooo, a man in need got access to your property? Maybe if you scumlords werent buying up all the properties and driving up the cost of housing he wouldnt be homeless in the first place. Zero sympathy for you, just like you have zero sympathy for the man living there.

    • @ChrisAke
      @ChrisAke 25 дней назад

      Well, this is a commercial unit he broke into, not an actual rental certified dwelling. Also, I don't think that because of prices driving up fully equals someone being homeless. Prices are driving up and there are plenty of non homeless, how is that explained? That is false news and a zero evidence based correlation. I also said I didn't have sympathy for the man. I was respectful and I thought it was handled well on both parties. I could have had zero sympathy as you claim and called the cops for breaking in.

      Mina, your assertion could be entirely valid and justified if you happen to be alluding to large institutional investors, and I’d likely agree with you due to their widespread corruptive speculation within the real estate market. Yet, based on your Marxist rhetoric and septum piercing, I’m not convinced in the slightest that’s what you meant. Instead, I think your knowledge on the topic is surface level at best, and your blanket ad hominem serves to mask your obvious ignorance.
