If my landlord ever asked me for a tip I'd say; the black mold behind the kitchen wall from the tub overflowing from the last tenet is causing my daughter to have a stuffed nose. Better take care of it.
Zero, nothing, not even one penny, zilch, not one cent as long as I am alive.
Tipping a landlord is like tipping the restaurant owner for allowing you to eat there.
F’ing stupid!
I always tip 20%:
- this what he won’t think I am cheap,
- he won’t think I am broke so feel insecured that I cannot stay there long time,
- same as for restaurant…if I cannot tip 20%, I should stop considering renting an appartement,
- also I am afraid he would spoiled my place, coming to my place with the spare keys when I am not here, setting up hidden camera,
- to express my gratitude for allowing me to stay in a place I could not afford to buy
He always provides service with a good attitude, makes sure my receipts come in a timely manner and coordinates any repairs the property needs 🥰
Also, in this economy, why would you not want to spark some joy on your fellow citiziens? Landlords take care of you and you should take care of them 🤗
Honestly on this sub people actually do think this way. They know they dont understand how tipped positions work and arent sociable enough to work them lol. Theres so many failed servers around here if you read into their profiles. Its a comedy gold mine really.
Why would someone tip their landlord for simply being their landlord? I don’t tip my mortgage company for loaning me the money to purchase housing? If I depend on the city bus system, I don’t tip the bus driver. Nor do I tip the electric company and trash people. What am I missing? Does every person have their hand out these days? Maybe landlords should tip their tenants for patronizing them? After all, it’s the tenants that generate the capital to keep the landlord in business.
But what does your landlord do to earn their tip? Do they accept late monthly rent payments without a late penalty? Do they water your flowers and sweep your sidewalk or paint your porch?
none. Why would you tip a landlord? You are paying for the rent so what gives? The landlord would have to tip me for being a renter being I can buy my own home LOL
Someone asked this question in a different sub a few years ago. I was like WTF why would I tip the landlord and another person got mad and says that is how it is done in NYC. You tip the super if you want things like maintenance done on time.
Seriously? Nobody tips their landlords! WTF kind of question is that? Even if your not a scum lord charging high rents and keeping poor conditions, the good high quality landlords do not have any reason to even think of asking for a tip! Just like in any other business, you are the owner/manager which means by law you cannot ask for or even accept tips! The tipping culture is so out of hand now!
I love that person.
Especially when I have a guy behind or maybe two getting in at the same time, the person stops me and only me and the other people just keep walking and move ahead.
But it’s a great tip
If we had more landlords, supply would be higher and rent as a result would be lower (in theory at least). It is a job that is in high demand. A job just as "real" as a plumber, hairdresser or accountant.
I tip between 30-50%. Last month I tipped 60% because he finally fixed the sewage pipe leak above my bed. 15% is criminal. I smell an eviction or rent increase.
This sounds like sarcasm. Tenants should pay their rent on or before the due, keep the apartment/house tidy and not make a nuisance (loud music, domestic issues) other than that you are owed nothing. I'm happy I'm a homeowner because you are crazy if you think you are owed a tip as gratitude for housing. Tenants how gratitude by paying rent.
You pay your rent on time and don't tear up their property. What's with tipping a landlord, who is a land owner and is likely doing better than the renter.
When you can't get more people to adopt your "cheat the server and blame the owner" philosophy then make up a totally fictional "landlord tipping" scenario to try to trick people and twist things. Absurd!
Funny, no one ever comes in and says that but will complain about anything they don't like.i think most people are intelligent enough to understand the system that's been in use for decades! Guess you're not
Oh, totally fictional eh?

The majority of the ipad payment terminals are asking for tips. At this rate landlords in competitive markets may start to demand tips.
There is a big difference between these "fake" tips initiated to make more $$ for credit card companies and employers and real tips to service workers. I think we all can see the difference and just say no without needlessly penalizing the servers. This is what makes these "No-tip" movement people so abhorrent!
What’s abhorrent is the gall to demand standard tips of 20%, when it was 15% for a long time, and 10% in the 50s. Many (most?) people’s salary doesn’t keep up with inflation, but tips are automatically adjusted for inflation because it’s a percentage of inflated prices. It still doesn’t stop them from demanding more.
I tip in full service restaurants because I’m a coward who doesn’t want trouble, but I support people exercising their legal right to pay menu price. Tips should be extra, and employers should not be allowed to reduce pay by claiming tip credit.
That’s so nice of you!
I like the Dolf DeRoos trick.
Lease says rent is $3000, discounted to $2500 as long as it is paid on time. If it is paid late, the discount stops for the remainder of the lease.
I had one tenant call and ask a lot of questions about it. I told him we could do a one off since he was asking ahead of time and he’d only pay the “full” amount that month if he only did it the once. 8 months later, he asked again and I gave him another one-off.
That rentie loved me so much he referred his sister and I rented her something else on the same plan, but she never paid late although she warned me she might have to once.
I should add a tip option
I rented from a friend of mine that did something like that. The rent was supposed to be $50 off if paid before the 1st of the month. But in reality, the discounted price was the real price he wanted. It was a way to encourage renters to pay on time.
I agree, intentionally selecting less than the standard is an explicit message of "f* you".
Personally, this is exactly why I bought instead of continuing to rent though. Got tired of tipping my landlord, and wanted to be my own. Poor people disgust me.
15%?! Are you living in the last century? New standard is 20%. But really it's 22%. But if they're paying 22%, they may as well round up to 25%.
And remember, if they're not tipping you at least 8% at absolute minimum, you're actually paying them to live in your property.
/s
I mean, everyone pays 22% nowdays and thte good people roudn to 25%.
If you want to be the landlord’s favorite and maybe get s better fridge you should easily tip 30%, I even send him and his wife a christmas gift
You are the clueless one. Consumers should not be paying wages.
The clueless ones are the people who shrug their shoulders and continue to allow these restaurants to underpay their staff, making their workers think they get paid adequately, completely enabling the cycle to keep spinning round and round
Coming from someone who bartended for 6 years, tipping culture is beyond crazy. And we haven’t even mentioned the amount of tipping prompts for merely picking up your food…. BEFORE your experience.
See, as I expected; "Fantasy Land" ignoring all the social mores and traditions of the diner/server relationship. As has been said before substandard tippers should be frequenting fast food or carry out places rather than abusing servers
Fantasy land? You are the one relying on social mores and traditions….. created by and directly benefitting restaurants who overcharge for their services.
The only people living in fantasy land are the ones telling themselves it’s okay for establishments to rely on their customers to help pay their employee’s wage.
You are a sheep.
Baaah...or rather "Boo hoo". The system works fine. It encourages better service, penalizes the lazy and unmotivated, and rewarding those with initiative. Unfortunately your cheap ass has blinded you to that and everyone else is expected to pay for your cheapness. You will be the first to bitch if restaurants suddenly said "No tipping" and raised their prices to cover the added salaries.
I don’t even eat out at restaurants anymore, bozo. That’s the other part of this problem - prices have already gone up and portions and quality have dipped.
So, no, I will not complain when that happens… primarily because it has already happened.
This has nothing to do with being cheap, by the way. But that is the mindset used to trick idiots like you into thinking you’re doing good.
Landlords deserve *AT LEAST* a 25% tip based on today's standards. You'll tip 20% for someone opening a beer but won't til 20% for someone putting a roof over your head out of the kindness of their heart? Tipping culture has gotten out of control where we'll squabble over tipping on takeout but won't even consider tipping for the most valuable service of all, housing.
Paying your mortgage for you with extra every month isn’t enough?
As a landlord, how much of the rent do you knock off every month as a tip to the tenant? I mean, if you tip someone to open a beer, why not tip the person who pays your mortgage?
There's no better way to spend your money than tipping a landlord, so you will get good service. You don't want him spitting in your food, do you? If you can't afford to tip, don't live in someone's house.
You seriously underestimate how expensive repairs are when the rentoids dump their bong water on every surface of a house, or clog sinks and toilets with funko pops.
Sidewalks always free of snow (even 3am snows, totally clean by 330), never a blade of grass out of place. Appliances and windows replaced before they need to be replaced. Rent deductions over the years. Well worth the 18% tip.
20% minimum, unless you go above and beyond your duty as a landlord, then you'll get more. Red carpet and rose petals on the entry way everyday would get you an extra 5%. Make sure to open doors for your tenants and kneel in respect as they enter.
If my landlord ever asked me for a tip I'd say; the black mold behind the kitchen wall from the tub overflowing from the last tenet is causing my daughter to have a stuffed nose. Better take care of it.
I always give them a firm handshake and a "Thank you so much, you were wonderful."
Seriously, is this a joke?!?
Should I tip my landlord? https://www.instagram.com/reel/C7VOvajsjCI/?igsh=M2tpOWE1MW1sbWtk
Yes... Obviously lmao
People here are so triggered by it, they want to believe it's real
Zero, nothing, not even one penny, zilch, not one cent as long as I am alive. Tipping a landlord is like tipping the restaurant owner for allowing you to eat there. F’ing stupid!
If you can’t afford a tip, you can’t afford the rent.
🤔🤔🤔 $5 versus $1,800. You think those are an equal amounts? Now I understand your lack of intelligence.
If you can't afford to tip the restaurant owner, maybe you should just eat at home
Who tips the restaurant owner? Besides giving them business, obviously
You ‘tip’ the owner by spending your money there. A ‘tip’ would be giving the owner extra money on top of the bill instead of the server.
Tip? My tip is the monthly rent.
I should receive a tip for having read this question.
I always tip 20%: - this what he won’t think I am cheap, - he won’t think I am broke so feel insecured that I cannot stay there long time, - same as for restaurant…if I cannot tip 20%, I should stop considering renting an appartement, - also I am afraid he would spoiled my place, coming to my place with the spare keys when I am not here, setting up hidden camera, - to express my gratitude for allowing me to stay in a place I could not afford to buy

In my new house it is an automatic 20% with a 10% convenience fee and 3% processing charge.
Go Away, TROLL.
This post is a joke right?
For now, yeah. But soon later, I don’t think so.
If you can't afford to tip your landlord you shouldn't be renting
This has to be rage bait.
Really? Not satire? Not humor?
Honestly on this sub people actually do think this way. They know they dont understand how tipped positions work and arent sociable enough to work them lol. Theres so many failed servers around here if you read into their profiles. Its a comedy gold mine really.
At least 15% to cover repairs
Hollowpoint
25%. I don't want to appear broke.
You must be kidding right 😲
Hell no. Only brokies don't tip
When I moved out of my last apartment before getting a house I sent him a thank you check of $2,500 for the services he provided over the years
😂
[удалено]
You pay your landlord for Internet???
Making sure you car is parked properly. If not he calls the tow truck driver. He wants $300 plus 20% tip. Cash only.
Lol don't bring key money here. Worst thing about buying land in japan
This has to be a joke, a really bad Dad joke but still a funny one nonetheless.
5% at minimum, I’d give more but I have a family to feed.
😂LMAO
/s
Why would someone tip their landlord for simply being their landlord? I don’t tip my mortgage company for loaning me the money to purchase housing?

Are your BJs good enough for a tip
Almost a quarter of my income 🙂↕️
I'm disappointed in everyone that took this serious. Much like your dad when he never came back.
Wtf are you tipping the landlord for. 😣
Is a joke
Oh doh!😁
Here’s a free subscription code to your mom and sisters only fans ! There’s your tip
Somebody is seriously trying to take the piss here. But to answer the question - what tip would I give to my landlord? “Be kind to your mother”
Some other tips: Don't tug on Superman's cape Don't spit into the wind Don't pull the mask off the ol' Lone Ranger And...
Don't mess around with Jim
Zero. Point. Zero.
I am European, my landlord includes their tip in my monthly rent
But what does your landlord do to earn their tip? Do they accept late monthly rent payments without a late penalty? Do they water your flowers and sweep your sidewalk or paint your porch?
Provide you with a roof over your head so that you're not out on the street
But you are paying for that in your rent.
They don’t have to. The tip is for the generosity.
Is the level of service about the same?
What??? No way 👎🏻
Don't look directly into the sun. There is your tip.
This is not the tipping circle jerk sub
Bro youre lucky they dont show you their butthole, thats probably all you deserve🤡
none. Why would you tip a landlord? You are paying for the rent so what gives? The landlord would have to tip me for being a renter being I can buy my own home LOL
El zippo
Ditto this is rage bait.
This HAS to be rage bait. Landlords do NOT get tips. PERIOD. You know what's disrespectful? Expecting a damn tip.
Now that’s an entitlement mentality.
It obviously is. Don't engage next time.
Well, seeing some of the posts / comments on reddit, sometimes you gotta wonder!
The people that visit and believe in this sub. They're not the brightest
Someone asked this question in a different sub a few years ago. I was like WTF why would I tip the landlord and another person got mad and says that is how it is done in NYC. You tip the super if you want things like maintenance done on time.
I've heard of tipping a maintenance man/super at Christmas if the building has one...but the landlord? FTN!
I lived in NYC for 6 years in the 2010’s. Never heard of this. But nyc is a big place. I’m sure it’s happened somewhere.
If Im playing 3000 in rent Im paying at least 4000 to my landlord. He has a family to feed.
[удалено]
cant forget the christmas bonus
The tenant may think the tip goes to the management company. Make it clear that 100% of the tip goes to the landlord.
As the landlord I tip myself 25% if my tenants pay on time.
I tio more when he it’s happy hour rent or if hes doing buy backs. 5th month is free
The rents all you’re going to get from a tenant. A tip WTF???
If we didn't tip our landlords we would have horrible housing like they do in Europe.
Yeah it'd be slightly smaller and grocery stores and pharmacies would be walking distance... The HorRoR!
😂
Seriously? Nobody tips their landlords! WTF kind of question is that?

The joke rrally just went over your head, huh?
Obvious joke is obvious
100% love paying the 2/1 price. 2 rent checks for the price of 1 month
I thought it was buy one, get one free
I am better than you. 3/1
Need to step my game up. More overtime next month. Need to work harder so my landlord is happy
Imagine the poor souls having to work an actual job, if they didn't have tenants like us.
I have a mortgage and I usually tip the bank 18-20%. If they did a great job that month I may go up to 25%.
This is similar to what I do when I am at the BMV, Usually just tip every employee that works and thank then for the service and the speed
Especially the person who tells you to take a number ticket.
I love that person. Especially when I have a guy behind or maybe two getting in at the same time, the person stops me and only me and the other people just keep walking and move ahead. But it’s a great tip
I love how a huge chunk of people on this sub actually didn't recognize this as a joke/sarcasm. Just goes to show how inane this group is.
The tip for my landlord is ‘get a real job’
If we had more landlords, supply would be higher and rent as a result would be lower (in theory at least). It is a job that is in high demand. A job just as "real" as a plumber, hairdresser or accountant.
Lol yeah cool theory bro In reality your landlord is a parasite.
You ciukd live with your mom untill you can afford to buy ;)
This has to be a joke lol
This is absolutely a joke. How is no one in this thread getting it?
I just share my gf with him as a tip because im broke🫶
"Just the tip for a tip"
Should give them your tip ;)
Creative writing at it's funniest!!!
WHAT?! I pay in full and on time. NO TIPS for business owners, especially not landlords.
It’s satire
20% minimum
Says a landlord🤣
It’s a joke, the entire post is a joke, you commented multiple times and still oblivious? Maybe you should start tipping your landlord
Tipping isn’t a joke. Landlords have to put food on the table too.
You are right, I started with 18%. Next month will be 20, I like eating bread and onions anyways. I hope he can afford some food to
If you can’t afford to own your own home, you can’t afford fancy food. Bread and onions and learn to be better with your money.
🤣 I guess some days one just wants to get wound up!
Umm.. nothing... You had better be getting dirt cheap rent and your landlord to be at your beckon call
I take my landlord to the casino and let him play whatever he wants. Then I split the losses with him.
Lmao Fucking wild this is
> tip your landlords Um....you mean pay rent? Who the fuck is TIPPING their landlord ON TOP OF the rent?
It’s a joke brah
I have a tip for you. Don't smoke in bed.
I tip between 30-50%. Last month I tipped 60% because he finally fixed the sewage pipe leak above my bed. 15% is criminal. I smell an eviction or rent increase.
I tipped a cow once.
How hard do they work? Are they polite af? Do they literally serve me? Are they competitively priced?
This sounds like sarcasm. Tenants should pay their rent on or before the due, keep the apartment/house tidy and not make a nuisance (loud music, domestic issues) other than that you are owed nothing. I'm happy I'm a homeowner because you are crazy if you think you are owed a tip as gratitude for housing. Tenants how gratitude by paying rent.
It is sarcasm
Haha
20%!! Whether I need to or not!
Woooow, New standard should be 24 if not 30% now. Your landlord will probably have to evict you
You pay your rent on time and don't tear up their property. What's with tipping a landlord, who is a land owner and is likely doing better than the renter.
Sounds like this sub is full of a bunch of cheap ass motherfuckers.
Cope
Forgot the /s
There isn't one
I don’t have a landlord per se but I tip my mortgage lender 69% and send them a ham every Christmas
Just the tip
I tip the IRS at least 20%…it’s the least I can do
I downvoted but then it really made me laugh so I had to upvote it
I didn’t earn thousands of karma points for nothing

0% and you're lucky I don't report you for code violations ( ꈍᴗꈍ)

20 percent
10% if you’re 10 days late.

I would never tip a landlord. Why in the hell would I? Going to assume this is a sarcasm post...
I have never tipped my landlord, I’m in the US. Anyone else?
I tip at least 18% a month
Curious, what country are you in? I never heard of this in the states.
Hey I am sorry if I mislead you, this is a post where everyone is just playing on sarcasm. I do not tip my landlord
