Reddit has become a popular platform where tenants frequently share their frustrating experiences with landlords, ranging from unresponsive property managers to steep rent increases. The site is filled with numerous complaints, making it rare to come across positive stories. However, a recent post has caught everyone’s attention for a different reason—a tenant praised his landlord’s exceptional kindness. This heartwarming story has not only gained widespread attention but also sparked conversations about the value of having a good landlord.
In his post, the tenant shared, “My landlord bought me dinner today. This is a wholesome moment for me and I wanted to share how much of a good guy (sic) my owner is. He’s 65+ years old and I have been staying in his building for the last 5 years. Today, he showed up at my door just now with a parcel and said he bought me dinner. I couldn’t stop smiling.” The tenant went on to describe more about his Bengaluru landlord’s admirable qualities.
“And the most awesome part, he didn’t ask for a raise in rent in 5 years. I’m basically paying the same rent as I was paying in 2018,” he continued. He also mentioned how the landlord occasionally shares stories about his “very successful daughters.”
The post quickly went viral, accumulating over 1.5 upvotes, and prompting a variety of reactions from Reddit users who were touched by the story.
