Even here in the netherlands, every single apartment I got or accepted my request for a viewing was blatantly evading taxes. I spent my first year here as an emotional mess because of how much instability their attempts at tax evading forced upon the tenant.
I only managed to get a stable studio by turning to a corporate landlord would couldn't screw around with the legal system because they would be caught right away. That's how bad it has gotten here.
That's why I hate when people are like uwu uwu smol bean small time landlords are okii uwu. No, they're the worst. They treat the tenants the worst and are the most likely to tax evade. Corporate don't do that AND they treat the tenants well, because they know the law. Corporate landlords are a proof of concept for how government "landlording" would work - but this time without the money getting wasted.
Similar to Amazon et al. Horrific to their employees today. But that level of efficiency deployed in service of the people would be a good tool under socialism.
Corporate are better with maintenance but they will never show an ounce of mercy if you don't pay the rent on time. If you get lucky, that may not be the case with a non corpo landlord.
Non corpo landlords, from my experience, not only have no mercy, but will seize every single opportunity to rise rent. Since they're also unregistered to evade tax, they're not bound by the legal limit. :/
Yea, most of them are like that for sure.
