“Giving her a month of free rent is more than just a nice gift; it’s a real acknowledgment of her responsibility and respect for the space. Good tenants like her can be hard to come by, so it’s awesome that you’re recognizing her efforts in a meaningful way. Plus, with everything people are juggling these days, a little break can make a huge difference. You’re setting the bar for what positive tenant-landlord relationships can look like.
“Proud of you!!”

“That’s not a month of free rent that’s just paying her back for a fraction of all the money you rob from her.”
