You never talk with them. Start the eviction and move on. When I started you could remove doors and windows. Remove their hot water heater or the ac unit. Just a few tricks. You just do things you don’t talk about what you did. Make their life hell without them knowing about it.

Had to pause at the 6:30 minute mark to say now I know exactly why he didn't want to let you in and see the place when you did the interview video. But I use to work for a construction business that did both new and remodeling jobs. This is by far not the worst place I've seen. We did one place that was used as a puppy mill. It was so bad. That our boss actually waited to winter to come so we wouldn't die in the hazmat suits he made us wear. It was so bad that when we was cutting to hardwood floor up that piss would actually dip out of the flooring as we carried it out. I had a great boss that paid anyone who work on the demo crew double time. I've never told anyone this. But he paid me triple pay. I was making 90$ a hour.

[@TheLandlordAdvocates]

Hi Blue House. The BIGGEST mistake that many landlords make is wanting that fast buck. For many the vetting process consists of 5 words.... "How much money you got??" Our office has facilitated thousands of evictions for our clients. When they come to our office, they complete a questionnaire form. One of the questions we ask, what is/our the tenant(s) names, do you know how many times that question can not be answered??? The client will tell us that one of our process servers may be able to acquire the names off the mailbox!!!! We tell them we can not do that and they must provide us with the names.

@@hnholdings7776 : The house I inherited IS in California. The state has strict laws that protect tenant rights. That's why you see so many squatters in California homes that are vacant. The owner has to go to court to _ask_ _permission_ to get the tenants (or squatters) out. Kicking them /dragging them out (like you described) can result in the squatters filing a lawsuit against you. It would be funny to watch you drag people out- I'd be out on the lawn with a bag of popcorn laughing- but in reality, laws are in place to protect people from getting hurt/injured or having their property damaged during an eviction.

My apartment building, while having big apartments and privacy, has the WORST people move in. I have lived here 9 years and have been through hell with most of the people that have been let into the building.

[@nordette]

I hope you sue them and garnish their wages

[@ChandlerDavidSmith]

nordette I probably should

[@hnholdings7776]

What wages?

[@kchilz32]

hnholdings 777 there ebt cards

[@beverlyf6603]

In most states wage garnishment isn't an option for this type of thing. Of course that's also assuming they have any wages at all to garnish.

[@erin9868]

So there are other tenants in the upstairs apartment? Did you just get an endless stream of complaints from them?

[@thomaslynch9858]

Stuff left behind by tenants are gifts, you should be thankful!

[@ChandlerDavidSmith]

Thomas Lynch that’s like thanking a dog for pooping in your yard! 😂

[@johnvetters5464]

I love that globe behind you on the shelf, very cool

[@teehughey]

Carpet in a rental? In a basement of all places!

[@ChandlerDavidSmith]

Not anymore 🤣

[@thatgirlPAIGE94]

Unacceptable! Trifling and ungrateful. Sorry messed you and your team went through that

[@thestormlakefights]

Did you put a judgement against them?

[@ChandlerDavidSmith]

greg harry no

[@erickgomez7545]

No matter how well you dress up that unit it is still pretty run down and ugly. I guess it reflects on the price

[@frankyb9682]

I always take before and after pictures prior to a tenant moving in and moving out. To have the government and some of the public see how their taxes are being spent on lazy low income people.

If you pause the video at 10:22, you can *clearly* see the baseboards on the floor on the left side is ghetto fixed. It's not even flush with the wall. It shouldn't be sticking up past the next board. You can also see the scraps & dings on the walls so you threw some paint over the walls & called it a day. You should of smooth the walls out like you would your own home. Your wife wouldn't let you leave you're home like you paid a guy with a case of beer to do some work.. the baseboards are laughable tho. *If your going to do it then do it right.* 🤯🤦‍♀️

[@cookie8260]

I’m going to be honest here. That “apartment” is just a crap basement that should belong to the actual tenants of the home. I’d rented a house many years ago and was robbed of power, phone, and cable when the landlord decided demand custody of the basement and rent it out. It cost me THOUSANDS of dollars in overseas calls and other bills that I could not fight. The landlord wasn’t able to (didn’t give a damn) divide the outlets between the “units” and so I’d paid for both homes. A little note... If someone is okay with living in a sh*t basement, they’re likely not going to be an ‘okay’ tenant. Expect drama.

[@charlesg7926]

I’m sorry but no, I have to stop you there. 1) when I was younger, I rented a basement separate from the rest of the house, and I was a good tenant. Now I make over 200,000 a year and I own 3 rental properties myself.

[@charlesg7926]

2) what your landlord did was illegal, because he did it without a lease agreement or your permission. Your lease should have clearly defined what your space was, and you would have had legal remedies to stop your landlord from doing that. So either your story is not true, or you didn’t stand up for yourself.

[@charlesg7926]

3) The fact you overpay for RENTING WHOLE HOMES instead of just renting a basement, is why you’re still poor and renting instead of actually becoming a homeowner yourself… 🤷

[@CrystalHickerson]

What's so heartbreaking about this entire series is this is what makes landlords and homeowner neighbors think all renters are scum.

[@ChereraTaguato]

nah its just the landlords who are scum lol

[@km6045]

They trashed it on purpose based off his attitude in the interview. Then got mad because you can’t trust him to do work because he screwed you over? No logic.

[@natalata1435]

Trashing is one thing, but FILTH is a whole other issue.
