Worst tenant you've had to deal with?

Account Closed
Posted

I'm just interested in hearing some tenant horror stories. What sort of tenants have you had to put up with, that were maybe hostile towards you? How did you deal with them? What sorts of things have you kicked out tenants for? If anyone's willing to share their story, I'd be interested to hear it.
