When it comes to renting, most of us have our own checklists, but one thing we all surely need is a decent landlord. A good landlord can make life so much easier for you. Late on rent? No problem. Need something fixed? Done immediately. They’re the kind of people who work with you, not against you, making renting feel like a breeze. But sadly, not everyone’s that lucky. So, to give you an idea of just how bad it can get, we’ve rounded up some of the most shocking landlord stories out there. Keep scrolling, dear Pandas, and brace yourself for some jaw-dropping tales!

#1 Found This Camera In My Vacation Rental

In today’s world, owning a house feels more like a fantasy for most of us. With rising prices and unpredictable markets, buying a home seems like a far-off dream. That’s why renting is often the go-to choice for people.

To put it in perspective, about 100 million people were living in rental homes in the U.S. in 2022 alone. In Europe, countries like Switzerland, Germany, and Austria had the highest percentages of people renting in 2023. So, renting isn’t just common, it’s become the reality for millions worldwide.

#2 My Landlord Finally Decided To Pour The Concrete Yesterday... Without Notice Right Before I Go To Work

The landlord just redid the sidewalk around the apartment complex 2 months ago. They decided to tear up the slabs infrastructure of my door (just my door) a week ago and it's been just dirt with a big drop-off since.

This morning I had to leave in a bit of a rush and stepped into wet concrete. No notice about it or anything. Made me finally retire the Hey Dudes. Now they're just the Bye Dudes.

#3 No Worries

While renting offers flexibility, requires less upfront cost, and often seems like a practical option, it can quickly turn into a nightmare when you encounter challenges like dealing with a difficult landlord or unexpected maintenance issues.

Imagine renting a place that seems perfect at first but later you realize something’s off. Every time you take a shower, the hot water turns ice cold after just 3 minutes. At first, you think it’s a fluke, but nope, it happens every single time. And even though you complain about it to the landlord, they do absolutely nothing about it.

#6 If Karen Was Your Landlord

It's no shock that one of the biggest sources of tension between landlords and renters is maintenance issues. In fact, a recent LendingTree survey of over 2,000 people found that 68% of the disputes were caused by things not getting fixed on time. Whether it's a leaky faucet or that dreaded broken heater, maintenance problems can make renting a nightmare.

#7 My Landlord Took Away The Bed And Mattress That Were Provided In The "Furnished" Rental And Replaced It With This Thing Which Is Really Hard To Sleep On

#8 Have Fungi Growing In My Apartment, Pretty Sure There’s Black Mold Hidden Too. What Are My Options?

Renting an apartment and have had constant flooding during the storms. This was a problem last year too. Now it’s much worse. Fungi is growing in and around my apartment. The floor has had black spots creep through the fake wood flooring.

I called 311 and filed a complaint and they told me an inspector would reach out in two days time, but they didn’t. So after a week, I called the health inspector's office only to be rudely told that they don’t give out timelines for when they can come back and inspect/test the place.

Any others had this problem and the landlord would just shrug it off? What are my options as far as remediation or rehousing? Do I withhold rent until this is resolved?

I’m in serious need of advice as I have asthma and eczema and I can’t keep either in control now and I think it’s due to this issue.

#9 I Came Back From Thanksgiving To Find That My Landlord Had Revarnished/Painted The Stairs Up To My Apartment. They Are Still Wet, I Was Given No Notice, And There Is Only One Staircase

Image credits: KingOfTheKains

It’s a bit eye-opening to realize that nearly 3 in 5 renters said they had a landlord they didn’t like at some point. And a whopping 58% of renters admitted they’ve had at least one landlord they weren’t fond of. Additionally, about 1 in 4 renters said that they don’t see eye to eye with their current landlord.

#11 Landlord Wanted A "Low Maintenance Yard"

He put these stones in the entire backyard. We are planning on moving into this house in a month, and have three small kids and two dogs. This is so not what we wanted, but we don’t have a choice.
What’s the best way to make safe walking and playing areas for the kids and dogs? What products can we buy to cover parts of this?

#12 How My Landlord Handled A Nest Of Spiders In The Closet Of The Apartment I Used To Rent

Image credits: spoopyspacecat

Interestingly, Gen X renters, aged 44 to 59, are the most likely to report having had an unpleasant experience with a landlord, with 61% saying they’ve dealt with one they didn’t like. In contrast, when it comes to Gen Z renters, aged 18 to 27, only 51% expressed dissatisfaction with their landlords. However, it’s worth noting that Gen Z might not have had as many encounters with landlords yet.

#14 My Landlord Destroyed All My Yard Flowers

Once every spring these flowers bloom in my yard, I think they’re invasive but they’re pretty and I don’t live close to a natural area so I let them live. I love looking at them, it breaks up the monotony of grass and leaves all around. My landlord said he was coming to power wash the sidewalks today and said nothing about yard work. I'm responsible for mowing, but since the grass hasn’t even grown yet, I haven’t touched it. However, he decided to mow the yard anyway - completely destroying all my flowers in the process.

#15 The Roof We've Been Telling Our Landlord About For Months Finally Gave Up

Some of you might say "Why didn't you fix it?", my landlord added in all the rental contracts in the building that you can't do anything without his permission, we've been telling him for months about the situation, but he is stingy as heck, so this is the end result of most issues with the building.

Image credits: reddit.com

A significant 53% of the respondents cited poor communication as a primary issue with their landlords. Whether it’s a lack of responsiveness to repair requests or unclear terms of the lease, tenants felt they were left in the dark.

In fact, 31% of renters say that their landlord entered their home without getting their permission. That is an invasion of privacy that can feel incredibly unsettling. Imagine coming home after a long day, only to realize someone had been inside your space without your knowledge. When your landlord doesn’t give you a heads-up, it surely feels like a serious breach of trust.

Dealing with difficult landlords is something many of us might face at some point, and while you can’t always avoid them, knowing how to handle these situations is important. To begin with, keeping thorough documentation is one of the most valuable tools renters have when faced with unresponsive or unprofessional landlords.

#20 My Landlord Decided To Set Up His Washing Machine In The Garage. That Spot Is Our Assigned Parking Space

He told my boyfriend straight up that he was doing it, and after we both took the day to calm down, we made it very clear we weren’t going to park there anymore. So he’s going to “fix” it so it drains into the neighbor’s yard there.

#21 This Was My Landlord's Solution To The AC Unit Leaking Water And Soaking The Carpet. It Was Left On For At Least 24 Hours Before I Got There

According to LendingTree senior economist Jacob Channel, “Renters should make sure they document all their interactions with their landlord. And they should be firm and assertive (but not overly aggressive) when asking a landlord to address a problem.”

Channel also emphasizes the importance of maintaining a written record of any phone or in-person interactions with landlords, as it can help protect renters in case issues arise later. “Immediately follow up on a call or visit with an email summarizing your conversation and confirming that everyone is on the same page regarding fixes or other solutions,” he says.

#23 My Landlord Is An Idiot. Picture Of When I Trimmed It vs. What He Wanted

I decided to move out the townhouse I'ved lived at for 3 years. The landlord started sending realtors out to look at the place, I assume they plan to sell it. One of the realtors complained the trees made it, "Hard to see the house and needed curb appeal". So, I trimmed the branches a little bit and thought it looked nice. Landlord disagreed and said it needs to be done more. This is the final product he is happy with. It makes me so sad.

#24 This Text Message From My Daughter’s Landlord While We’re Attending Her College Graduation

This landlord has been petty to my daughter and her roommates for the past 2 years, so when my daughter sent her this text message, she didn’t disappoint.

Additionally, he advises renters to take photos and videos of any issues or damage in the rental property that need repairs. This visual evidence can be crucial if the landlord is slow to respond or denies responsibility.

While it’s important to take practical measures like documenting issues, it’s even better if you can foster a positive relationship with your landlord from the start. Open communication, mutual respect, and understanding can go a long way in preventing misunderstandings and resolving problems more smoothly.

What do you think about these landlords from hell? Have you ever had a bad experience with a landlord, or are you one of the lucky ones?

#29 It’s A Mushroom. There Are Baby Mushrooms Trying To Sprout Out Next To It. I Moved Into This Apartment 5 Days Ago, And This Happened Last Night

No other signs of water damage. The most baffling part to me is that the ceiling around the mushroom is completely solid. This mushroom really just shoved its way through an entire wall.

I’m terrified that it’s a leaky sewer issue - since, unfortunately, mushrooms thrive in that kind of environment.

My landlord is giving me the runaround. He says he doesn’t have any handymen available to look at it. Asked me if I knew any. No, I don’t, I’m the renter. Not quite sure what to do next. I’ve put all my important belongings in my car and am staying with my brother for the next few days until this gets figured out. I recognize the imminent danger of this kind of damage. We need a mold remediation company, not a handyman. Ugh. I HATE RENTING.

I guess I didn’t really look hard enough but I didn’t think I’d need to look for a bullet hole. I already signed a 10-month lease and paid all move-in fees. Landlord said it’s been this way for years and refuses to fix it.

#36 When You Try Warning Your Landlords About The Leak In Your Kitchen

They hired a really bad roofing company to replace the roof due to multiple leaks in our place and black mold in the attic. It turns out they needed carpenters to complete the job, and they won’t be back till 3 months later. One of the panels they had removed made the leak worse, and they tried to put a tarp over it to keep the rain out, but the leak was still there. They tried telling the landlords, but they said there was nothing they could do, now this.

#43 The Landlord Refuses To Replace The Broken Tile. Our Rent Is $3,257 Per Month

We just moved into an apartment and noted during inspection that this tile was broken and several others were cracked. The landlord told us to "make a list", which we did, presumably to be addressed after we moved in.

After weeks of searching, I located and purchased 6 matching tiles (pictured). I showed them to my landlord and asked when she could schedule her handyman. Her reply was, "That's a lot of work. Just fill the gap with some putty."

That's completely absurd given our rent. I'll replace them myself, but her response makes me want to break the tiles when we move out and keep the broken bits.

#46 My Landlord Opened My Crocs And This Is How He Returned Them To My Door

All of the packaging is gone & he claimed there was “no name on the box” so he opened them and threw everything they came in away. He was for sure going to just keep them because they had dirt on the inside and I know they didn’t get sent like that, they come in plastic. He has another tenant besides my roommate and me and didn’t text any of us to see if we were missing a package.

#50 Landlord Won’t Give My Router Back

As the title suggests. My family and I moved out yesterday (March 15th) and we wanted to get our router which is connected to the main Wi-Fi router which was in HER room. She told us we could just come get it another time as she was not available, and supposedly she has a lot of boxes covering access to the WiFi router.
She now is refusing to give me my router, and is being hostile, which she never has been before. What can I do? I’m thinking of just saying I’ll get the police involved, but not sure if that would work. I just need my router back..

The landlord ordered us a new stove, and I uncovered this absolute gem of a fire hazard. When we first moved in 2 years ago, I asked to have all of the outlets upgraded to the 21st century. Must have missed the worst outlet of them all. Hooray renting. P.S. don’t judge us for not cleaning behind the oven.

#83 My Landlord Is Keeping All Of My Deposit Over One Broken Tile That His Maintenance Guy Broke Moving A Dishwasher

So I moved into an apartment and immediately had problems. Paid out of pocket to have someone come fix the doors because you could see sunlight around three corners. Went through three refrigerators because the ones he put in kept breaking and lost all my groceries all three times. Went through two dishwashers because they were hooked up wrong and leaked water. Had mold cut out of the ceiling and they left the moldy ceiling all over my cupboard tops. Several plumbing issues, bugs and he had people come install a storm door, they did it wrong and installed it incorrectly and then I had them on camera stealing my doorbell camera. Took three weeks to get it back and they broke the doorbell wires when they tore it from the wall. My lease ended and I left. I paid people to come in and deep clean and shampoo carpets.

My landlord said there was "extensive damage" and that he would be keeping all of my deposit. I asked for proof of damages because he refused to walk through with me and this is the only picture I sent.

#90 Is This Legal?

I have been renting a room in a townhouse the owner/landlord does not reside here, but she has extremely weird rules that I was not presented until the day came for me to move in. I am not well versed in my rights as a tenant and I want to know if these rules are actually enforceable and if she can demand money like this from me. Also when I toured and saw the listing online it was listed as a traditional apartment there was nothing indicating it was a "room share". I am also a grown woman and I feel like it’s extremely inappropriate for her to tell me I can’t have guests over it has never been anything overnight and I’m pretty sure some of the men the neighbors see are DoorDash guys. I really feel like she is trying to take advantage of me I’ve been very passive with her in the past, and I’m not sure what to do I am looking for a new place, but I really can’t just give her $300.

They decided that the estimate was going to be around $8,000. My apartment is 885 square feet. I have been here for a little over two years. I think this floor is laminate but I’m not sure. It has a glossy look. The scratches came about when I first moved in and moved my couch. The point is I want to know if my property manager is trying to scam me or does the pricing sounds accurate.
