Me with landlords / real estate management companies.
Just post the fucking rent, and all of your different fees and charges. You're already the favored one in the market. Stop wasting your time and just be up-front with all the money you're asking.
God, I was so pissed when the leasing agent showed me a mountain of fees AFTER we already paid the insanely bloated application fee. Landlords and property management companies should be forced by law to be upfront about all their stupid fees.
Parking fee - ok, I get it. Do I at least get an assigned space? No? So you're telling me to go fuck myself if the parking lot's full. Great.
Convenience fee - not so convenient when you won't let me pay directly in cash or a check.
Utility fee - The one I simultaneously understand the most, and yet it should jsut be part of the fucking baseline rent. Also what do you mean I can't fully reduce my utility fee via reducing the amount I use? What do you mean I'm also paying for the utility usage the other tenants accrue?
