Mistake talking to previous landlord
Hi BP!
I just wanted to share a mistake I just made. I was checking references, as everyone should! I spoke to the prospective tenant's current landlord. I asked how much he was charging and he asked me the same. I thought we were just being friendly. His apt was $200 cheaper than mine. He then proceeded to call the tenant and offer her 200 off her rent to stay! My bad. Live and learn!
