But that’s not all. The tenant said that whenever he needed transport, the landlord would happily offer his extra scooty.

“He would give his extra scooty to me as well whenever I needed it apart from my things,” the man wrote.

“My flex- I got a landlord in Bangalore who gifted me a silver kada,” the caption of the post reads.

A second user wrote, “Make sure you return the favor in some way. It's rare to have people this good, and you should make sure to express that in your actions towards him.”

Another user said, "There are some things money can't buy."

Stories like this remind us that even small acts of kindness can leave a lasting impact. In a world full of rental horror stories, this Bengaluru landlord showed that goodness still exists, and sometimes, even landlords surprise us.
