I dont even know who was legally there ,mailbox was full of bills everyday for 8 different people .I could not get the mail person to stop leaving mail so I removed the mailbox and took all mail to the Post Office .They asked me what to do with it all and I told them I didnt care that it wasnt mine.As far as going after tennants for damages the legal system usually favors the tennant as they think us landlords are being unfair. You wouldnt believe how hard it can be to evict someone for non payment of rent ,it can take months and they destroy your place too.You can also get into trouble if you give someone a bad reference .I have had other landlords tell me what great tennants they were when checking a reference because they wanted them out of their house so badly. Rentals can be profitable but they can also be a pain in the rear,we have been renting this one for about 18 years.If Joan hadnt talked me out of it I was going to give it to the local fire dept to burn down for training purposes because it was so bad.Im glad now that she talked me out of it as it is in nice condition again but 1 more time and it may be time for it to go away.And you cant hardly sell anything nowdays .
