Make Sure You Clearly Show Your Landlord You Are A FIGHTER FOR YOUR TENANT RIGHTS! You Need To Teach Them You Will Fight Back!
The greatest heavyweight boxer of all time was a Black man named Muhammed Ali. He was not the biggest fighter out there. In fact, he was normal sized and usually the “underdog”. But he became the champion!
How?
Because he knew bigger boxers underestimated him and though he was not aggressive and weak and small. He made sure they knew he was not weak and would fight aggressively and this led the other boxers to respect him.
This is the same attitude these rich landlords have against us hard working tenants. They think we are weak. It’s why we all need to fight aggressively and teach them to respect us…and if the don’t they will get knocked out!
Use The Muhammed Ali Strategy To Get Your Landlord To Respect You And Your Rights
Most landlords think they are clever and tenants are stupid and weak and not capable of fighting back.
Why do landlords think they are so clever?
Many bought their rental properties thanks to mortgage fraud with fake incomes. The mortgage business is very shady and how did some lowly person end up with several rental properties? Hmmm.
And then they avoided all the laws to create a likely illegal rental as cheaply as possible. A rental that is a fire trap that could lead to the deaths of you and your family.
Keep your landlord on the defensive, ALI STYLE!
Tenants Need To Show You Won’t Be Pushed Around Or Cheated On Day 1!
Mohamed Ali knew other fighters thought he was small and old. He knew the key to his winning (and dominating) was to show the bigger, younger fighter he knew what he was doing and he was fierce and wouldn’t back down!
Ali knew that if he he looked ‘weak’ or ‘intimidated’ it would lead to even more attacks from his opponents.
So he made sure from the first second of the fight to teach his opponent/landlord a lesson
…He showed them he was going to fight harder than they were and he was going to KNOCK THEM OUT!
From The Beginning Of The Fight, Ali Would Show He Would Not Be Intimidated
Ali would come out and jab, jab, jab, punch, punch, punch. This led the other boxer to respect him.
Tenants need to do the same thing.
Make Your Landlord Know You Fight Back HARD!
Tenants Using Ali Tactics To Fight Back And Protect Your Family
So how can use be like Ali and win?
Here’s how.
If You Are Rejected From Renting a Property You Want To Make Your Home
It’s clear that many landlords refuse tenant applicants by breaking the British Columbia Human Rights Commission Laws.
The refuse you because you are on government assistance. They refuse you because your income isn’t high enough. They refuse you because of your race or citizenship. They refuse you because of your family.
This is all illegal…and it’s all super common!
Landlords are breaking the law by illegally denying you the home you deserve!
Always demand an exact reason why you were refused. Record all conversations.
File a Human Rights Complaint against the landlord who refused you. Teach them a lesson they will never forget and make sure their law-breaking will end!
When You Move In
When you move in many landlords think “HAHAHAHA I GOT YOU! PAY ME!”
They have no idea that Tenants have rights and view you as simply their “cash cow” so they can buy expensive cars, take vacations, use your rent money to pay for their kids elite private school tuition!
Just Like Ali, Show Your Power, Knowledge and Willingness to Fight On Day 1
You have to show to your landlord that you are not an idiot that they can rip off. Most landlords don’t care about the Residential Tenancies Act and don’t care about the Tenancy Branch.
Even if they are aware of it, they think YOU WON’T DARE CHALLENGE YOUR LORD
Make Sure You Challenge Your Landlord And Protect Yourself!
If you don’t do this, your landlord will NOT RESPECT YOU AND WALK ALL OVER YOU!
I know tenants are want to focus our time on our jobs, our studies and our families, but the landlords in BC are often PREDATORS and you have to take these steps to protect yourself, especially newcomers to Canada, people on government assistance, single mothers and students.
How To Do Take Action After Moving In? (No Need To Tell Your Landlord At All!)
-First, inspect the property yourself. If you see any potential issues call your local by-law officer to get someone to come and inspect it.
