Before they moved in, I only checked this guy's girlfriend's credit since he is working in outside of Edmonton and can not sign the application form. His girl friend's credit is excellent. One year later,when lease was up. They broke up and the girl moved out, the guy wanted to stay but said will pay the rent one week late. I know that's the tip of the iceberg, disagreed. Later he said he got borrowed money from this broke up girlfriend and paid. Since I was busy with my other job,don't want spend time to find new tenants and deal with the moving in moving out thing, I agreed, he paid on time for rent for this month and the security deposit still there anyway.
After few month paid rent on time he start to pay late,excuses were one after one, but every time just before the evication notice up to date,he paid.
Until last month,which is also the last month of the lease (for don't want the lease up in winter, I signed 6 month term lease). Thought still having the security deposit and so hard to get money from him (but he got a big hole on the wall and one piece of carpet on stairs was chewed by his dog),so I even asked to only pay few hundreds, at this time I knew he wouldn't pay,when I get to the house, he
has wine, alcohol and smoke on table,but said he has only 50 cents in his account so no money to pay.
But considered go through the court would take another week after the eviction notice date up(which is almost three weeks already), and the court will just send people to let him move out if they don't pay and do have no money in account,( Is My Understanding Right? Will They sell Tenant's Big TV or sth. to Cover the landlord's Lost ?) So decide not waste my time and energy, unsurprisingly,end of the month,when it's time to do move out condition checking he refused to do moving out condition checking and refused to sign and still kept saying they will get everything clean and all damages fixed!!! With most of their furniture and packing inside of the house and busy moving!!!
Left the place dirty and messy and the damages which he promised he and his father would fixe were still there. I have to offered the new tenants $200 first month rent deduction for the cleaning and left the dirty carpet unwashed.
Just saw other people's post and find I'm lucky! At least they moved! Realized I made a big mistake. if they don't move then I will be in bigger trouble
On the other post,like this situation,most people suggest just take the lost and let them go, and feel good get the house back!!
I have no problem to take the lose. My question is, is there anyway to let other landlord to be ware of him or tenants like this? Like can I report them to credit bureau? and how?
And report him to TVS, should I keep the proof for many years?like the cellphone message etc?
