  • Thoughts on roommate conflict…

    By Anonymous - 19.11.24 1

    I’m really struggling with two of my tenants not getting along and getting me involved in the process. One of them is paying rent, and the other typical settles up via venmo. Apparently there’s a personal conflict going on between them and I’m only receiving half of the rent. What do you think I should do? Has anyone had to deal with this before? I don’t feel qualified to help with their personal conflict but would like to not have to deal with evictions.

    If it doesn’t seem like it will end I would let the one paying partial rent out of their lease. For the remaining tenant I would set some firm ground rules about decorum and expectations. You can’t/want be a mediator, but you can require respectful communication interactions. I would update my lease to reflect that policy.
