It's Hard to Beat the Tent Rent
Here’s something we may start to see more of: Brokelyn reports that three enterprising recent college grads have avoided moving in with mom and dad by pitching a tent in the backyard of a friend’s Bushwick rental.

Here’s something we may start to see more of: Brokelyn reports that three enterprising recent college grads have avoided moving in with mom and dad by pitching a tent in the backyard of a friend’s Bushwick rental. The price? $100 a month per tent. The experience is not for the faint of heart, given that there are already six people crammed into the two-bedroom duplex. In all, that makes for nine people sharing one shower. All of a sudden, crashing on the ‘rents couch doesn’t sound too bad.

What they’re doing is pretty cool. I think more punk rock than hipster. But it’ll get old quickly, especially once the heat, humidity and insects kick in. They might just be looking for some sympathy from the ladies. Let the cougars lose on ’em and they’ll be fine. It won’t be long before they’re back on the couch surfing circuit.
Ah, TOTD.

Oh my God, I am having a flashback to my tenant from hell. She was my own living nightmare when I first bought my house. She used every piece of her duplex apartment including backyard and cellar to “sublet”. She had subtenants living by the boiler in the basement and people sleeping in the hammock in the backyard and she slept on a bed under a tarp in the backyard. She advertised in Italian newspapers for students, adventurers and along the way she made friends with the people in the neighborhood who were between apartments. She is gone now, thanks to tenant landlord court. Bye.
