Well some of you know my ongoing saga with a corrupt landlady.I was renting a mobile home from her and decided to buy one in the same mobile home park,She tells people here to only sell to her because she wants the rent and when they don't she gets mad.my thinking was I wouldn't have any more problems with her since I am only renting the lot and not the home from her,well,turns out I have to sign an rental agreement to keep my home here on this lot,So she has come up with this bill that I have to pay her for a storm door that was damaged in a windstorm,she says I am lying and I damaged it!She is refusing to bring me the papers until I pay her another 100.00 dollars for this door.She has already kept my deposit of 500.00 dollars!I have come to the conclusion that this woman is a lying, bullying, terrorist and I have no other choice right now but to pay this.It is unfortunate that landlords have so much power.If she refuses to let me live here I will have to pay 3000.00 to have my home moved and I don't have it and she knows that.Basically with the way things are she does whatever she wants.She also told my daughter to take her pool down,while there are other people here with pools,but they are her picks.Hopefully I can get this home paid off fast and sell it and get out of here completely,so much for home sweet home.
Hi Mary I hear you and understand that when " Renting " living space we are subjected to this type of incident. I would ask for a receipt for the storm door money and then review the lease agreement to determine if there is any mention of the pool and the ability of renters to own one.
I agree paying off the unit is a great idea but in the meantime I woudl use all my alanon tools to protect my serenity and not surrender it to this person .
Good luck
Oh....so sorry Mary that you've got one of 'those types' in charge.....I agree with Betty - don't let this person take away your peace and serenity that you've worked so hard for! Pray for peace and wisdom - answers will come for you.
Meantime - prayers, positive thoughts and (((hugs))) to you!
