That sort of bad faith is part of the reasons why landlords end up with concrete in their drains and then come on BP to complain about just how horrible and mean all tenants are.A professional landlord also knows that tenants without the use of their range will occasionally try all sorts of novel solutions to cook their food, and these solutions are very often nutbag fire hazards.
