I'm just wondering if landlords care about other residents when it comes to difficult tenants?
I'm in a block of 9 units and two years ago a man and his girlfriend moved in - they are absolutely repulsive people. He shouts obsenities to people passing by the block, walks around common areas at night drunk (can always tell as his red wine ends up on the tiles), has blocked access to our driveway then told us to F off, takes photo's of another resident because he doesn't like him doing weights in his garage etc etc..
We, along with two other residents made a complaint to the managing agent (and rightly so), now we are getting notes in our letter box threatening legal action for "slander" - he says he's going to take it all the way and ruin our life.
So, I asked the agent, and our stata manager if the landlord was aware of the issue, she is and mentioned she would never have renewed their lease if she knew of these goings on. I was told their lease would be expiring on 21st Sept (tomorrow) and that they would be leaving.
They are still there today, no sign of leaving or packing up, unit not advertised for lease - looks like they are staying....
We are stunned that after all this they would allow these people a new lease! There is a shortage of rentals in our area so not like she wouldn't be able to get someone in straight after...
