Hahaha!! LOL, you guys are killing me. Good shit.
To answer everyone's questions:
Proud Virgin. The house came with one of the cheaper remotes on the market. Thats one of the reasons I didn't make much of an effort to find it. I don't even think the opener itself is from Portland Overhead. But for argument sake I offered to buy whatever remote he.wanted. He wants one from portland overhead. OK, thats fine. They're a little more expensive: 30 bucks vs. 10 to 15 bucks for the one that was lost.
2. What he wants me to pay for is someone from Portland Overhead to come out and Program it! Which is not necessary. Ive done it myself. Ive dealt with Portland Overhead previously on a property I used to own. The people overthere were actually quite honest when I called. "Yeah, we can do it but we charge a fee of 175 dollars. Its very easy to just do it yourself" Verbatim quote.
SF- Ive been there sonce 2020. In may of 2020 the property management company I signed an agreement with bailed out due to covid. So I worked with the owners. They told me they weren't equipped to be landlords they never managed the property themselves, they weren't 'handymen' couldn't fix plumbing or landscaping etc... I said ok. Ill work with you but I want my rent locked in for the next 3 years at this rate. They agreed. Never produced a new rental agreement. Everything by email. As far as incidentals we'll do our best. They were very nice people so I was a very forging tenant. Ex- heat went out and it took them forever to fix it, came over with a space heater! Whatever Im easy. Hose burst under sink- very easy fix- took 5 days to replace meanwhile I had to do without kitchen sink. Whatever Im easy.
We did the walk through on my last day. Everything is good. Everything is fine. I left them a large tool box and yard tools that I purchased just so I could do landscaping. When I moved I told this asshole- Im just going to donate this stuff to Goodwill unless you want it, I only bought it for the yard work here. He says sure Ill take it. So give about 300$ worth of yard equipment and a 500 $ toolbox. We shake hands and I leave.
A few days later he calls. Where's the garage door remote? Easy, it's in the toolbox that I gave you. A few days later he calls- its not there. Hmm thats odd, im pretty sure it was. Maybe it was in my old car that I sold awhile back. Uh tell you what those are cheap and easy to replace so I can do that for you or you can get a new one and i'll pay for it.
So I can't just go over and do it myself without his consent. I haven't lived there in a month. If I still did Id just take care of it myself.
A month goes by. Calls asking for 150. Ok. Why is it 150, the remote is 12.95 on amazon.? Im getting one fro. Portland Overhead. Ok the one from portland overhead (which you dont need) is still only 36.98 at lowes? Don't tell me how to do my job. WHOAH. that escalated. I just want to know what costs 150. Its the service to get the remote from portland overhead AND to have 2 technicians from p.o. come out and program it. Look Ill buy you the .p.o. remote but I can program it myself. Ill replace the remote- even though im not entirely sure i lost it.
Guy is a fucking putz. Even his wife has referred to him as an idiot. So im ok with being cool about it but im not going to be a punk about it. After 3 years I asked to get out 3 weeks early because I found a great deal on a new place that i didn't want to lose. NOPE. Ok. What if I forfeit the security deposit? Security deposit was a full months rent so its actually MORE than the pro rated 3 weeks? OK.
Now this a month after moving out.
