Miguel Bustos

Miguel Bustos is the best landlord you will find in the city. Period. We have rented for him for two years now, and will stay in one of his properties as long as we can. If something is not right, he’ll make it right. And quickly. We had a clogged up bathtub that drano would not fix, not a big deal, but gave him a call just so he’d know, and he had someone out there that night and paid the double time to have the guy come after hours.
And he totally took a chance on us with a 100-​lb dog, which no one else in the city would even consider renting to. (Although the dog is elderly, and very-​well behaved, and came with iron-​clad references).
We’ve been invited to his parties; he bought our Christmas tree this year, and in the midst of the economic crisis, said that if we needed to negotiate a lower rent, that it could be an option or that we could work something out. I mean, come on! What kind of landlord does that? He wants you to consider his house as your own home, not as a house he’s renting to you, and he’ll be as hands-​off as you’d like him to be. It’s been really wonderful having him as our landlord and friend.
