Here’s a nasty tenant story for you I heard today involving a Property Manager as well; though not in the way you’d normally expect.
Turns out a young guy is going through some personal as well as financial dramas and needed to sell up his PPoR that he had recently rented out; to what appeared to be an ideal tenant.
After all the tenant was a Property Manager and involved in a real estate business partner in the good side of town (wherever that is).
The tenant had clued onto the fact that his financial situation was getting drastic and when his property went onto the market the tenant put in a low-ball offer that was promptly rejected, apparently drastic is not desperate in his case.
A potential purchaser, who saw the property listed on the net, spoke to the selling agent and being quiet keen on the deal, the property and its location, flew over from the eastern states to view the property. A good call on the purchaser’s part, as when they looked it over, it was nothing like the photos on the net, the gardens were all dug up and the property was an absolute mess, with a few choice &%##!!! ‘s They beat a hasty retreat.
Bring on the courts and the complications therein, however, the other week they showed up at the appointed hour bailiff in tow to find the tenant in situ and refusing to leave. The bailiff gave the tenant a few hrs to pack and depart whilst they waited; they said anything not removed would be secured by the locksmith sitting in his car waiting nearby. &^%%$$ !! you and the horse you rode in on said the tenant to Mr Bailiff, I’ll burn this place down (see, not an ideal tenant).
In came the Big Blue Machine and Mr Johnny Hopper who was able to enforce the required events and once the majority (though not all) of the goods were removed and locks were changed all the good guys departed
