So, this post is NOT meant to scare you, newbies. But... this is gonna freak you out :) 

This tenant is in the process of being evicted. To make matters worse, he lit his kitchen on fire; accidentally, supposedly. Anyway... this is what I'm dealing with these days. This is the rental I've had the longest. Same tenant for 8 years, suddenly stopped paying and turned into satan.

I'll be writing a LONG post on this when it's all resolved. In the meantime... enjoy!
