I live in a house with 9 other people.
One is an jackass, and "lightly tapped" a big stone piece on our porch with his car, toppling it.
Masonry guy came through and gave a $1400 quote.
Is this something we can force him to report to his car insurance, effectively having them pay the bill?
Make him. Judge Judy would eat him alive.
Yes, you could report to his auto insurance. Liability coverage usually does not have a deductible. If he doesn't give you the insurance info, file a hit/run incident with the police department and submit an accident form to the DMV (or whatever they called it in your state).
Tell him to pay. If he doesn’t take his car to a chop shop and blame the colors.
How would filing a hit and run incident form help get it paid for?
Liability coverage insures for property damage as well? (As opposed to just auto)
>I live in a house with 9 other people
>9 other people
>9
How poor are you exactly?
The dude is just a really difficult case. He has no consideration for other people, and has no sense about him. Just destroys things out of retardation.
Looks like a shithole, just burn it down with everyone still inside, including yourself.
1st year medical student, so currently... -$35,000. =)
fuck you you fucking bitch ill kill you lets meet up and fight fagot
Firstly, if he damaged it then he's liable to cover the costs to fix it. It's up to him whether he chooses to pay for it out of pocket or claim it on his insurance. If he won't pay then you can take him to small claims court.
Secondly, it's not exactly structural damage. Why the concern with getting it fixed? Is it just the principle of the matter?
Thirdly:
>Masonry guy came through and gave a $1400 quote.
Get more quotes, because that's ridiculous. You could probably pick up an illegal day labourer outside Home Depot, who would do a satisfactory job for 1/10 of that.
I agree. Your place is shit.
>and blame the colors
Kek
That's not a $1400 job. More like a $150 job. Ask him to pay. If he doesn't, just "lightly tap" something of his.
like his girlfriend, amirite?
can you explain me this meme?
you sound like a jew. or a liberal. either way OP is a faggot
An eye for an eye makes the hole world go blind. Especially if they're your roommate.
We own the house. The stoop cannot remain in pieces like that.
Yep, already have another guy coming!
>1400
get a different guy that seems like way too much, or just leave it who gives a fuck it brings character.
Free publicity for H&M
Is the dingus who hit the porch a part-owner? If so, getting him to pay for the fix may require a lawsuit, depending on how you have arranged ownership.
Negative, he is just a tenant.
This is beyond asinine, kill yourself
If he refuses to pay, evict and retain security deposit. Have a shyster near you review the lease he signed and make you aware of your options.
The big problem is that in the real world, 1400 bucks ain't much and it will likely cost you at least that much to evict and collect damages. But if you do evict, you'll at least be free of the moron.
From the masonry style I'm guessing you're in 2nd/3rd-world Europe. I don't know what your legal system is like but if not owned up to then it's criminal damage. You should tell the landlord in any case, not the police ideally.
How about you stop being a lazy fat fuck OP.
Realise that the cost isn't $1400 That's literally a load of bullshit. It's concrete and brick. And with the quote being in dollars, those bricks can't be old enough to warrant a historical repair cost since America is a toddler and doesn't have history old enough yet. You shuold just fix it yourself you cunt and stop being such a fucking neppo
>Secondly, it's not exactly structural damage. Why the concern with getting it fixed? Is it just the principle of the matter?
Are you fucking serious? lol, Some people don't like living in slums.
You buy a nice car, some fucker keys the hood to shit
>it's not exactly structural damage. Why the concern with getting it fixed?
your mom dies and someone chisels dicks all over her tombstone
> it's not exactly structural damage. Why the concern with getting it fixed?
Because it's fucking ugly, that's why.
$150 dollars.. you're a fucking faggot as well.. Neither of you know the cost of concrete apparently. That shit's free.. you niggers aren't jewish enough to know how much things actually cost.
So someone comes to your house and punches out all your drywall and you don't want them to at least pay for it?
That isn't the situation here kid. When you grow up mebby U mite lern a english.
His room mate broke it. His room mate fixes it.
It's not a stranger you utter shitfaggotcunt If some stranger did it, I'd make sure they fixed it. Stop being such an obvious cukfaggotmonkeycurtain
Guessing from the tiles on the floor and the funny hexagonal shape of the top its UK ... Listen ... If i would be still in uk i would do that for 300£ happilly ... I dont know where did you get that quote from but im sure if you poat it on gumtree you will find somebody to do it for you maybye even cheaper this days .... Contact Andrew Mills on fb im sure he will be more than happy to help you with this ;)
I mean c'mon bruh. Do you think I'm such a cuck to pay $1,400 without getting at least 1-2 more quotes? That's some faggot shit.
Also, the house itself is around 80 years old.
That is literally what car insurance is for.
Bit slow are we?
You told him to fix it and pay for it himself idiot, are you fucking drunk or something? Why would you make a stranger pay and a room mate not pay?
Sorry Andrew, OP actually lives in the fine city of New Orleans.
It is the landlord's problem, not yours.
It looks like something you'd see outside a 19th century lunatic asylum. Spend $14 on a sledgehammer and knock the whole stairs and walls down. It's disgusting.
Also, surely you rent the house, meaning it isn't your responsibility? Get your landlord to pay for it using his home insurance.
He's concerned about raising his faggot rates. This guy is completely out of tune with reality. He's trying to tell me it was going to fall over eventually regardless if someone hit it or not. L M A O
I'm trying to be gentle before I become forceful.
kysfgt
OP is landlord, dipshit.
Not all of us are basement dwelling NEETs. Some of us have homes and families.
Are you kidding? That's imported phoenician limestone. That stuff isn't cheap, and most people don't like to work with it because it's caustic, that's why it's usually painted like that, which adds even more to the labor.
>makes the hole world go blind
Courtney’s drug habit did that
We're a group of graduate students who have been grandfathered ownership. This is going to trigger a lot of you, but the house doesn't belong to anyone per se. We manage it on a non profit status, and fill vacant rooms with new 1st or 2nd year graduate students.
Hehe im not andrew but its very interesting to see exactly the same architecture as from uk :)
Because he gets a warrant out for his arrest and boom he goes to court.
Well he can pay for it with all the money he gets from sitting on his arse while the tenants pay rent.
>Has no idea how car insurance works.
You can't just dial up Flo from Progressive and tell her some autist fucked your shit up and expect her to pay. Driver has to let them know first, usually with a police report for verification. Then the payment process might begin -- if you're lucky. If the policy holder is uncooperative, it will require a lawsuit.
get proof and file in small claims court
>the fine city of New Orleans.
KYS for thinking this.
>Is this something we can force him to report to his car insurance, effectively having them pay the bill?
Yes if you have proof or video. Any cameras around? But it depends on his property liability insurance. They won't pay shit without video.
How about you take a sledgehammer to the rest of that ugly shit and just have the ugly steps.
God damn stupid. Invest in bitcoin and drop the fuck out.
Buy XRP and NEO. You're welcome.
This. Shoot into his sloot.
haha, tell me about it bro. The nigs are nogging HARD out here in Nola!
> Chartist v rentier class argument
(look it up, you illiterate shit.)
I don't know what turd-tier world you live in or which socialist moron you idolize, but this is the real world and it don't work like that.
And you're bitching about 1400
an hero
He admitted to everyone in our house group chat as to his culpability. That counts, no?
May I ask why the stone is even your problem if you don't own the house? Shouldn't the homeowner have insurance that would cover something like that? Although it's mainly the auto insurance provider's responsibility. Again, you must have it recorded for them to pay for it.
Not to the insurance. They don't give a shit. It must be on video.
You can try to get him admitting it on video and send it to them. 50/50 chance it will work. But only the accident itself recorded is a 100% chance.
Sounds like a squatter situation. Guy on the right is OP
kill yourself fagot. I don't have an extra 1,400 to wipe my ass with
rofl, ppl playing dominoes on the side of the street
could you be any more of a cul de sac beta faggot?
>video proof is the only proof
What the fuck dude, if he admits it that's it. You would only need video if it is nig OP saying one thing, and nig roommate saying something else.
ITT: dumbasses whose legal knowledge comes from watching Law and Order while on peyote.
The only way to recoup damages is for him to pay. He can voluntarily report this to his insurance or pay out of pocket. If he refuses OPs ONLY FUCKING OPTION to get him to pay is to sue. Period.
All other opinion here suck cock by choice.
Insurance companies don't want to pay for anything, they'll only do it if they see proof.
Triggered much?
It is the landlord who has responsibility to repair it, but so long as it is 'made safe' I doubt anyone 'in the real world' will bother to do anything about it.
you actually purchased a house with 9 other people? You are retarded and deserve whatever shit becomes of your property if you mortgage a house with NINE OTHER PEOPLE. Too much of a richfag to swallow your pride and rent for a few years? I hope your roomate shits in your ass and knocks the other side down.
You're late for Marxist theory class, retard.
Yeah no shit but him saying it to the house is different from him directly stating and signing it to his insurance company.
Anticipate that he will deny it to his insurance later. Get it on video, then send it to his insurance so he can't deny it. Use your head dude. You're a medical student. Jesus christ.
FAGGOTS THIS IS A JOB FOR THE INTERNIGGERPOLICE
kek you are such a faggot
your 9th housemate who busted it and you and maybe a few others could fix this in one Saturday and for nothing close to $1400. But you choose to bitch and moan like you're on a reality tv show and say what a dick your room mate is for making an honest mistake and knocking down an ugly piece of shit part of your shitty, unkempt stairs. Note the weeds growing out of the existing cracks. It's a miraclethat shit heap didn't topple of it's own accord. I think daddy's little wanna be doctor is scared to get a widdle dirt on his hands
Thanks for the (You)s friend
haha nah brotha. Medical students have been squatting here for the last 50 years, and running it sort of like a fraternity. I honestly don't know who owns this place; the people who currently live here take care of everything. We have non profit status and live here for $350/month. Here's my room, a lot of the dudes have remodeled their bedrooms. Common areas are questionable, but people have really nice personal areas.
>lives in a wanna-be frat house
>acts surprised when shit gets busted
I lived in an actual chartered frat house as an undergrad for 5 years before dropping out. Do you want to hazard a guess at how much structural/ property damage occurred in that place?
Practice what you preach and if you don't have and spare money for situations such as this then you played yourself, fool.
I actually agree w you dawg. I've been fixing a lot of shit around here when I have time. Fixing rebar and mixing concrete, doing the brick work. Fuck all that my nigga, I'll pay someone to do that. My time is more valuable spent studying, researching, or hospitaling.
I value my living situation and the benefits of where I'm currently residing.
Just break the other side so it's even
/thread
...
Who's surprised man? Look at that porch, like one user up above said it has fucking plants growing out of it. I'm just trying to get this asshole to pay for some shit he broke so that we can put the money toward something more important, like a new TV.
I don't think that's so unreasonable. Either way, the house has the $$ to fix it, it's just a question of who's responsible, and I think it;'s the guy who hit it.
>so that we can put the money toward something more important, like a new TV
god damn dude you are pathetic. how brown are you?
Why the poor stay poor
...
insurance companies need a police report if the claim is coming from someone other than the insured. you need the police involved and get him cited for leaving the scene of an accident
its showing how white people think you're fucking dumb for racism. call us anything, well wear it on a shirt.
black people could make and wear a black shirt that says "dumbest nigger in the shed" and still blame white people for it. just a meme showing white intellectual superiority in the form of a 7 year old girl.
So the right corner of your stoop is in poor condition by your own description. Your room mate immediately takes responsibility for having "lightly" tapped it with his vehicle, causing it to collapse. And now you feel that this poor guy should buy the house a new TV? Despicable. I feel sorry for him for having to live with a schemer like you. Are you Jewish by chance? If anything you and the other eight inhabitant's collective disregard for the upkeep and maintenance of your front stoop likely contributed far more to it's collapse than did the light tap your scapegoat inflicted on it.
The rich get richer, and the poor get children my friend.
Oh, quit running your mouth. Hes trying to get a degree to have said money to pay for shit. You dont make bank, either. Promise.
Damn bro. You got baited like a faggggggot
...
answer the question. Are you jewish?
And yeah, actually. I do think if he backed into something and broke it, regardless of it's condition he should pay for it either by filing a claim, out of pocket, or with his own hands.
>Is this something we can force him to report to his car insurance, effectively having them pay the bill?
no, it's something you can fix yourself with a small bag of cement and a few bricks
faggot, be a man for two minutes
Nope, agnostic, I guess?
watch a YT video and do it yourself faggot.
> clean the area
> chip away broken stuff
> patch where you can
> fix it
> paint
The poor stay poor because they are BAD WITH MONEY.
Children don't help.
I guess when you spend all your time on the stoop you get really protective about it.
This. It might not look the best if you DIY but it's a fucking rental property who gives a shit? The brick is painted anyway. I'd be the landlord is probably hiding a bunch of chips and cracks already there by doing that.
this
literally just put everything back where it was and fill in the broken off bits with some cement then paint over it
it is that fucking easy
$1400 is a guy thinking (accurately) that you're retarded, it'll cost you next to nothing
Oh, well, actually... The stoop leads to a porch with patio furniture that we hang out on. Only niggas straight sit on the stoop, c'mon man...
