The person living there, obviously.

I've seen way too many people wrecking the place they rent for that to be true.

Yes but if they had to fix the boiler themselves or they get no hot water - then they would, don't you think?

I am a homeowner and I hate that part of my “job”.

I enjoy coding. I do not enjoy dealing with unreliable contractors and months of partially finished projects
