Re: Landlord troubles
Not to stick up for landlords (I hate mine), but when he hears the word "sidewalk sale" or "blood drive" or any of the other events, the alarm that goes off in his head may be: LAWSUIT waiting to happen. He's picturing people pushing each other and cars slamming into people and someone giving AIDS-infected blood and all he thinks is lawsuits and insurance. Unreasonable, yes, but that is what lawyers have done to this country. It stinks.
Another explanation may be that he wants to have the "classiest" center in the area, and that joint sales and events make it less classy. He may be willing to let existing tenants go out of biz to preserve a classy look and feel, in the hopes that will pay off in the long term.
People who have alot of money can afford to do things "long term". The rest of us have to live day to day!
