The Landlord is a short hilarious video clip (Running Time: 2 minutes 20 seconds ) starring Will Ferrell and Pearl, the daughter of his SNL pal and Adam McKay.
Will Ferrell appears as the tenant from hell who is accosted for his rent by a drunk, angry and crazy bad mouthed landlord – who happens to be 2 years old.
The clip has been viewed millions of times since being originally posted on Funnordie.com. It was the brainchild of Ferrell and his longtime collaborator Adam McKay, director and co-writer of Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy and Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby.
It's funny if you either a landlord or tenant.
I guess I should say funny if you're not the landlord, as I am and publisher of RentLaw.com. I should know better and have been tougher with my tenants. I think I could use this kid to collect my rent.
The Landlord HAS to be tough and not nice like me. That's why I have two tenants that owe me over $10k each - about 6 months of rent. Landlords - remember - 90% of the time - tomorrow tomorrow.....
Take a lesson from this video. But be nice.
Send your tenants a letter and contact them when the rent is due.
To reinforce your position, charge late fees as permitted by your state law and begin eviction proceedings if needed - immediately.

Be a good landlord and a good tenant.
