Report Inappropriate Comments

Having been a landlord in Seattle, my experience has been 100% negative. “Required” safety items are arbitrary and often counterproductive. Such as a self closing basement door and plexiglass over windows “too near”a glass door. My repair budget became based around inspection reports, not tenant requested improvements or my own ideas. And every time I see a government imposed “ improvement” on my property, I feel less pride of ownership and more yoke of serfdom. Inspection upon complaint works. Periodic inspection sucks.
