Scummy renter neighbors about to be kicked out

March 3, 2010 by Tricia

I know I’ve said it before, but it really does look like we might be getting rid of our awful renter neighbors soon. I certainly hope that we will!

We got a call last week from the home owners daughter in law. She said that they’d been trying to kick out our horrid renter neighbors since December! That was news to me because we’d called them to complain about a few of the things the renter neighbors were doing in December and they didn’t say a word.

Anyway … they haven’t paid rent since December and we know they were late on rent in November …pretty bad record since they only moved in in the middle of September huh? But of course our friends that had lived in an apartment building with these scummy people had told us that they wouldn’t be there long as they have a record of not paying rent or bills and just generally being awful people.

They were supposed to be out my March 1st. If they weren’t out, according to the owners daughter in law, the Sheriff was going to come on March 2nd – yesterday, and lock them out.

Well that didn’t happen. So I don’t know if they came up with the almost $5000 they apparently owe or if the Sheriff’s office is backed up and there’s been a delay in their eviction. I think I’ll be called the owners daughter in law later this evening to see what’s happening because we want these people gone just as much or possibly more than they do!

I have a feeling once they get their house back and the scum of the earth renters are gone they are going to find a lot of damage to the house. We’ve heard them pounding things on and off for the last three months. They’ve either been building something in the basement or they are destroying stuff. I certainly wouldn’t want to hear the insurance quote the owners are going to get once they see the house and need to fix it up again.

Oh and these people are really stupid. The home owners I mean – not the renters … they’re seriously considering renting again!

Hmmm .. lets see their first renter destroyed the carpets, broke a chandelier and a window or two and painted over oil painted walls with latex so that everything was peeling. Now these people owe about $5000 in rent and have built up legal expenses for the home owners, plus they’ve probably damaged the house … and yet they still think they might rent out to a third person?

They’re stupid! They’d be better off letting the house sit empty rather than renting again. They obviously can’t pick good renters and they still didn’t go back and call the employers that the bad renter neighbors listed on their application (they only called the supplied phone numbers which were obviously set up as the guy had just got out of jail so he couldn’t have been working for the company he’d said he was.).

I’m just keeping my fingers crossed and hoping that the conniving renters didn’t come up with a way to delay their eviction and that the sheriff will be coming to kick them out sometime soon! I’m also hoping that if it does come down the sheriff showing up to lock them out that it goes down smoothly. these people are really bad news … I just have a feeling that it could come down to a stand off with the police or something. Yeah – that’s how bad they are!

    While your scummy neighbours might be your immediate problem, the home owners are your long-term problem! Why not recommend a property rental agency to them (may be known as something different in Canada) so that your future renters are properly checked out and much better quality?

    That’s really bad. I think renters since they are just renting the house they should take good care of it. And it is really a bad record if you are not paying your rent.

    I agree with Robert. The owner gets these low-lifes to stay in the house. It’s the owner’s fault as well.

    Hii. This is my first time visit your site. I ve been follow you, I hope you follow back me too. please check again.

    Ok. I think it is really bad. Yes,why? because I believe renters just renting the house take good care. but, it is really a bad whenever you are not paying your rent.

    I also think that it is the owners fault as well, there are so many lowlifes who can make your like a living hell!

    WOW, do they have cars parked on the lawn also? The owner really needs to pick renters better. As was stated, they are to blame a bit also…

    My Dad used to own some rooming houses years ago, and it was a nightmare. He finally found a couple who took great care of their place and were always on time with the rent. When they tried to move out, my Dad actually offered them a discount to stay!
