Natalie was<\/strong><\/span> freaked out about black mold. She was freaked out about a radiator spewing. We fixed the problems, but then my building manager entered Natalie’s suite without 24 hours\u2019 notice. That freaked out Natalie.<\/p>\n Freaked me out too. I don\u2019t like getting sued. When I got Natalie’s certified letter, I figured she worked at a law office. Turns out she worked at an insurance office. Nevertheless, she knew how to quote the Ohio Revised Code.<\/p>\n We fixed all her problems. But then she deducted a half month’s rent from her next payment. I told her, \u201cThat\u2019s not how it\u2019s done, but I\u2019ll let it go this month.\u201d I even said she could move out.<\/p>\n She was<\/strong><\/span> ecstatic. \u201cI can be out this weekend!\u201d<\/p>\n She was too <\/em>happy. That didn’t sit well with me. I said, \u201cI changed my mind. I\u2019ve put a lot of money into this apartment. For business reasons, I need you to honor the lease. Just call if anything bad happens again. Any leaks. Whatever.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYou can be sure I\u2019ll call and you can be sure something will happen.\u201d<\/p>\n Nothing happened. No more freak outs. She stayed a year and got her security deposit back (minus $40 for a dirty refrigerator and stove. TMI).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Natalie was freaked out about black mold. She was freaked out about a radiator spewing.
