The Shrink may be able to help you; I have his number and I grin when I win.

vanman · 11-20-07, 05:25 PM

Just have a quiet word with him,explain the position your in with your other tenants.Also get something in writing then if he carries on then you can throw him out with no comebacks.
Don`t know if that helps.

Anybody Here At The Sbr Looking For A 1 Bedroom Apartment In The Boston Area.let Me Know I Will Give You The Hometown Discount I Am Charging The Fag $950 So You Guys Get It For 1000.

ShamsWoof10 · 11-20-07, 05:31 PM

IMO I would tell the guy that you have noticed the traffic and you would like that to cut down a great deal... Don't mention the traffic being related to him being a homo (most would think it's drugs) just tell him to cut the traffic down... You can even make up some sh*t like "the local authorities" have been snoopin' around...

JBC77 · 11-20-07, 05:36 PM

I can understand the tenants concerns. The volume of traffic is obviously noticeable.

When his lease is up.......don't renew it. Just ride it out until then. Notify the other tenants that he'll be gone when his time is up.

Or raise the rent by an unjustifiable amount.

Shark79 · 11-20-07, 05:40 PM

BeanTown ... I rent some apts as well ... and I encountered a similar situation like yours in the past ... I simply came up to the kid requested to lower the traffic mainly due to other tenants worried about there own safety and that I wanted there request to be respected. I also did this in writing to protect myself.

BEANTOWNJIM · 11-20-07, 05:46 PM

He;s On What They Call A Tenacy At Will So All I Have To Do Is Give Him A Months Notice Then Go To Housing Court And I Could Lose This Case.if This Guy Wants To Stay Here In Massachusetts It Takes 3 Months Of No Rent To Get Him Out.i Would Have To Serve Him A 30 Day Notice Then You Wait 30 Days To See A Judge In Housing Court Then The Judge Will Say The Teneant Needs Some Time To Find Another Paartment By The Time Its Over I Am Out 4 Dimes And Then I Have An Empty Apartment.i Havent Met A Tenant Yet Who Paid Me While We Went To Housing Court.

This Guy Might Show Up In Court And Claim I Am Picking On Him Because He Is Gay I Have To Be Very Carefull How I Handle This.fags Can Always Find Good Lawyers Who Will Take The Case On Civil Rights Case.this Could Be A Mess If Not Handled Properly Thats Why I Am Asking For Suggestions I Cant Ask The Guys At The Irish Social Club Because They Willjust Tell Me To Punch Out The Fag And Throw Him Out.

BatemanPatrickl · 11-20-07, 05:47 PM

Jimmy, I know a guy who can take care of your problem for $500; he will even make it look like a hate crime. Call me Jimmy. Thanks pal.

Shark79 · 11-20-07, 05:51 PM

Just tell the pillow bitter to please respect the other tenants (he needs to lower the amount of ppl that comes in his apt) ... I dont see that being difficult ... that is however in the form that you will request this ... buy the way you talk about the kid ... it seems that just by looking at him ... your gonna knock him out cold and not give a rats ass ... but then again you can have someone (other than JOHNNY KNOCKDOWN) to talk to the kid ... maybe your lawyer?

Doug · 11-20-07, 05:52 PM

It doesn't sound like he's doing anything illegal.

Who knows, he may be a male prostitute. Jim talk to the kid give him notice that your getting complaints about the traffic. I like the authoritites thing. Tell him the traffic has to go down and give that to him in writing.

If it was a chick and she had guys coming and going and the tenants complained what would you do?

Dead Money · 11-20-07, 06:19 PM

If he is month to month you should be able to serve him " a writ of possession"

In most states he will have 30 days to vacate or you can sick Johnny Knock down on his butt pirate ass.

Dead Money · 11-20-07, 06:21 PM

Tell him the place is full of lead paint, asbestos, mold.....fvck it.

I'll come up there and get the mother ****er out for you. Say for $500?

louis · 11-20-07, 08:52 PM

Your goal has to be to get rid of him. He is probably engaging in prostitution which is illegal. Talk to a lawyer. You have two options: start raising his rent until he leaves, or evict him. Do whatever you legally can when a tenant makes noises that disturb the other tenants. Most leases forbid tenants from making disturbing noises, if that be playing a stereo, or what this guy is doing. Almost all leases forbid tenants from using the premises for illegal activities. Your lawyer may tell you you have to warn him first before eviction, but you may be able to raise his rent based on the time you have to spend dealing with complaints. Depends on the laws in your state. Any future contact with this guy should be in writing. If you have to put a notice on his door, take a witness with you.

Again, your goal is that he leaves. You don't need his money when it limits your ability to get money from the other two tenants, who may already be looking for a new place to live. Even if the other two tenants stay, they are now less likely to accept rent increases over time, because the option of leaving has grown in attractiveness. Getting him to alter his behavior by having less guest over is useless. The other tenants will see that there are still guests, and be unhappy about it.

raiders72002 · 11-20-07, 10:03 PM

Beaner- You are getting soft. Give the fag one warning then call Johnny Knockdown if that doesn't work.

Yuri would be laughing his ass off if he found out that a fag was taking advantage of BTJ.

BEANTOWNJIM · 11-21-07, 06:38 AM

Easy Raiders If It Was Up To Me Sure I Would Have Johnny Knockdown Take Care Of The Situation He Has In The Past.but Its Not That Easy When You Are Dealing With Fags They Know All The Laws And There Civil Rights If You Start Dealing With Civil Rights Its A Whole New Ball Game.you Guys Are Missing My Point This Gay Guy Has Been A Good Tenant He Pays Right On Time I Am Trying To Calm Down The Other Two Tenants.i Just Dont Know How To Approach This Guy And Ask Him About The Extra Traffic Coming Into His Apartment Without Him Claiming I Am Picking Him Out Because He Is Gay.you Cant Just Walk Up To These People And Get Tough They Will Have An Attorney On Your Arse In Minutes You Have To Think This Situation Out.i Am Hoping It Will Just Go Away But I Dont Think So Sooner Or Later I Will Have To Cofront The Guy.i Will Wait Until After Thanksgiving

mad · 11-21-07, 06:46 AM

If he's selling his anal poon then get some evidence of this and call the cops. Don't say a ****in' word to him about it though.

Much easier evict the ****er then.

Perhaps some legal advice would help too.

Why don't you confront some of the "visitors" and run them off for trespassing? The tenant cannot claim they are "friends" if they are coming in off a craig's list ad.

I woulnd't put up with this shit for five minutes.

20Four7 · 11-21-07, 09:10 AM

BTJ: Which is worse, 1 empty apartment or if the other tennants get pissed and you end up with the fag still there and the other 2 leave. Get him to straighten up with his visitors and kick his ass out. Your in America you have far more at to use than up here in Canada. Believe me it's a hell of a lot harder here to get someone out than down in Boston.

pico · 11-21-07, 09:45 AM

maybe you should get couple of other gay people to move in and be a full blown gay community

jjgold · 11-21-07, 12:45 PM

What is happening is he is a male hooker which is ok but that is grounds to remove and evict him. Jimmy all you do is set up some camera in his place and watch the guys fuk each other for like 2 days and then show him the tapes and the craigslist add and he will leave voluntarily. Jimmy I know it will be painul seeing guys fuk and blow each other but it is the only way to approach this.

Shark79 · 11-21-07, 12:48 PM

Cant he simply locate the add on craigslist and tell him that this is illegal, therefore, he has a 30 day notice to leave?

louis · 11-21-07, 12:51 PM

If what he is doing is illegal, he can be evicted and he stands no chance claiming civil rights. Just the ad itself, is probably enough evidence. This is not a case where a landlord must proove it beyond a reasonable doubt. This is not court.

Talk to a lawyer, and see if you can raise his rent to the point that he leaves. If you do decide to just warn him, or ask him a favor, send the warning in writing. Just telling him something orally, a friendly talk, is a waste of time. Don't assume he has "civil rights" he may in fact not have at all.

There is a lot more to being a good tenant than just paying the rent on time.

jjgold · 11-21-07, 12:56 PM

gay hookers make a fortune, huge market for it

going rate is $150 for blow job, $75 for a hand job

$400 to let them pop you in ass/vice versa

Thanks for sharing

I guess??

louis · 11-21-07, 01:41 PM

Another point, most leases/rental agreements forbid the use of the premises to run a business, or even act like you are running a business. "The apartment will be used for residential purposes only". Did this guy sign a rental agreement?

pico · 11-21-07, 01:46 PM

yeah, you don't want your apartment to be known as the gay brothel. with that reputation, no one would want to rent from you.

if i were you, collect the rent then call the cops.

louis · 11-21-07, 01:49 PM

picoman, that's why he must talk to a lawyer now. He himself, could be investigated by the police, for being the owner of this brothel. It is imperative that he take action to make it clear, the landlord here is not involved in this apparent illegal activity.

Shark79 · 11-21-07, 01:51 PM

I agree with Louis, mainly if one of the other tenants goes to the police and does a legal complaint and within it they note that the owner was informed and nothing was done. This can get pretty serious.

Tchocky · 11-21-07, 01:52 PM

You can't legally evict him based on sexual orientation. Couldn't you tell he was a homosexual when you met him? If he is using the apartment as a brothel, then you can try to bust him. Sounds like you are stuck with him.
