minus-squaremeseek #2982linkfedilink19•1 year agoThat’s exactly what these places do. Met Cap is a huge one. They were “renting” units for 50% more than most others in my neighborhood. The “renovations” are laminate floors, new paint, and new cabinet doors. Nothing remotely worth what they are asking. I’m still floored that this country monetizes homes.
