Is this Tenant a deadbeat?
https://nypost.com/2021/03/18/...
A couple observations:
1. Tenant claims she was not reimbursed for the broken key/doorknob. Read her letter. Should the Landlord reimburse her?
2. Welfare paid her rent for an entire year even though she was capable of working (she resigned from a well-paying job). Why isn't she working and making an effort to cover her own expenses instead of living on the public dole?
3. The Tenant's lease was set to expire July 31, 2020 and the owner sent notice. Tenant refused to leave, despite proper notice. Now she's not paying rent, apparently because she can't afford it. Why did she ignore the termination date and stay in a rental she knows she can't afford?
4. The Tenant's rent was paid by the state for a full year...yet she had enough money to buy a 2017 Malibu?
5. Tenant continues making payments on the Malibu but not on the rent?
6. They had an agreement in December and the Landlord thought the Tenant was moving out. Isn't that an indication that they have been communicating?
From my perspective, this is a dead-beat Tenant that is milking the system. Thoughts?
