Starting A New Rental Tenancy Mugs

Roder got a new lease on life. At a slightly higher rate.

'As my solicitor I think you could have negotiated that better.'

' I gather you wish to reassign your lease, Higgins.'

'There goes any chance of us getting our security deposit back.'

"I rented out the basement."

'Yeah, strictly speaking it's a hole, but I prefer to think of it as a bijou hole.'

'Honey, the neighbors have persuaded me to stop coming out into the hallway every morning to play 'reveille'!'

'Well, the rent is a bit more expensive than usual because there are only 1 327 482 other tenants...'

'I'll say this for you young Thoreu - he certainly does make good use of his pond.'

"The landlord has promised to sort out the damp problems."

"We need to be careful."

"It's a little bit small,but it's got great cross ventilation."

"It's a nice unit, but there may be a faint odor from the last tenant..." "Yeah, enough to make you faint."

'Surely it is no longer legal to include 'deposit of your first-born child'?'

'Here is the lead-based paint information, Fair Housing criteria, laws regarding tobacco use outdoors, slip-and-fall warning, and, barring any further public hysteria, the lease itself.'

'Sorry...I don't deal with lease issues.'

'Sorry, my dog says no landlords allowed!'

"He huffed and he puffed and he increased our rent."

'Here is the lead-based paint information, Fair Housing criteria, laws regarding tobacco use outdoors slip-and-fall warning, and barring any further public hysteria, the lease itself.'

'Well, at least the landlord can't complain about a flat fish!'

Generation Rend. Young man rending his garments in anguish at extortionate rents.

"Well, thank God it's not the plumbing! Let's run down town, drop off a check and sign that lease!!"

Bugging Out

Shoe for Rent

"Looks like rent-a-mob's arrived."

Tenants and Landlords - 'Are we nearly there? ...'

Apartment construction.

"How much are they for my rent? About three times a week!"

'The lease says, 'No Pets'! Chickens ain't pets!'
