yeah, it's awesome to live and work in a town and have to rent a temporary place for 3 months in summer cuz your're priced out of your normal home, and it was rented in advance by tourist paying 4 times normal rent value

I dont understand. Is the landlord kicking you out for three months? How is that legal? What happens with all your stuff?

Pretty much, yes. In tourist towns leases are often short-term leases that only last up to a few months. Landlords want those places available for the tourist season so they can charge a premium to tourists looking to rent a place for a week, and so they only lease up to the start of the tourist season and locals have to find somewhere else to live.

because it doesn't happen. OP is full of shit.

that's just lovely! this past summer was the first I didn't have to change homes, after doing it for three years in a row

to explain better: I had to agree with the situation before hand, so I was not kicked out per se. the fucked up part is that when you're trying to find a home around here, most of them have this condition that you have to accept

but I guess you knew that too, or are you full of shit also?

Well that's not what you said the is it? And I agree with you this really sucks and government should protect you here but no one's kicking people out to let tourists in.

well, what did I say then? maybe you should re-read the thread and see who talked about being "kicked out"

and since we're analysing what other lemmings are saying, do you wanna comment on your first reply to what I said?
