Landlord’s Publicly Posted Maintenance “Leaderboard” Singled This Tenant Out as the Most Expensive Resident at over $2k—Leading Neighbors To Blame Him for Imminently Rising Rent: ‘Mine Is at the Top With $2,340'

This tenant lives in an eight-unit Wisconsin apartment building where the landlord has posted a laminated list ranking apartments by their annual maintenance costs. The tenant topped the list at $2,340 after a furnace repair and a leaking kitchen pipe, neither of which he had caused.

Further, this was clearly an effort to turn tenants against each other and shift blame off the landlord himself for approaching future rent increases…

The landlord added names and units to the list, so that everyone could see who had submitted the most maintenance requests. Then, the landlord told all tenants that the listed maintenance expenses "could" affect everyone's rent at renewal, prompting a neighbor to ask the tenant how he had caused so much damage.
