    Backyard makeover in 3 days?

    Thanks for your responses. Yes, we will indeed engage a regular mower after this. Like the native and tube stock suggestions as well. I think we will also put in a few pavers to make a path and then leave the rest glass. Hopefully we can get it looking neat anyway. I'll let you know how we go!

    IP destroyed by tenants

    The furniture left in the house 'disappeared' a couple of days ago (or so I've been told ;) and handled in the correct manner of asbestos removal. Wasn't going to let it cost us even more money with storing it. Saying that most of it was broken and damaged any way. They clearly had no respect...

    IP destroyed by tenants

    Hi Property girl, Thanks, you just made me feel a bit better! Think we will stick with it, we just haven't had it very long and to have this happen so early in the piece is just bad luck I guess. I just finished reading your current dramas. Hope you get it sorted this week. Good luck...

    IP destroyed by tenants

    Oh shameful. Does he still have properties then? Hasn't scared him off? We have 2 and seriously considering selling after this. Of course, will all depend on what the final outcome will be cost wise. I have a sinking feeling it will be hefty.

    IP destroyed by tenants

    Oh no. What a shame. Why are people such animals? I am confident we will get the bond, however as we haven't had property assessed yet, I am fully expecting some get out clause they will have. Or they will have a separate excess for every room or similar. I'm expecting the damage to be a similar...

    It sure is a wake up call. We will lose a lot of money and it will be many many years if ever, before we make it up through rent/sales process. Shares are looking shiny right now!

    IP destroyed by tenants

    We have tenants that have been in the property for 6 months. From the beginning they were late with payments and got issued with notice to vacate every 2 weeks, but every 2 weeks they made their token payment which extended them another 2 weeks. Finally, last week, the PM went around on the day...
