Nothing has given me more ire towards renting than the removal of agency and lack of options. I need permission to do my laundry? I have to request someone fill a card value and the minimum is $15!? Oh and a single load of laundry is $5??

Ooor I could drive 15 minutes away and sit in the closest laundromat for 2 hrs for $6 (plus gas, time, etc.)

This sounds highly specific and not indicative of most people's renting experience lol I've never heard of anything like that in my life. Ive been renting since 08

Having to use a paycard for laundry because they don't allow in unit laundry?

I have yet to live in an apartment that allows me to have my own washer and dryer and I've been renting over 10 years myself in multiple cities
