This person thinks its harassment when he hasn't paid on time and the landlord sends him emails and calls him. All the time bragging about how well he is taking care of the house. Then he loses it, after being 3 weeks late on the rent, and says he's getting out immediately and to use the deposit for last month's rent. 12 days later (after still not paying rent and landlord has made arrangements for new tenants to move in) he calls to apologise and suggest he stay, promises to pay rent right away while landlord makes sure new tenants are definitely interested. Then still doesn't pay the rent and when told that he does have to get out starts a new month and again doesn't pay. Thankfully he vacated immediately when eviction proceedings were started.
When we took back possession, we found the following damage.
Wood floors had deep gouges. One of the rooms had been painted a nasty trashy red after repeated instructions to consult with landlord about colors. Carpets were filthy and had paint and ketchup stains. Trees on the side of the pool had been cut to ugly stumps without permission, and limbs that had been cut above the pool and roof had been left to tinder box dryness on the side of the house; its a miracle as dry and hot as San Antonio has been that the house didn't catch on fire. It has also come to my attention that the person who cut the trees wasn't paid. The mantel was missing, along with fireplace tools and screens and shower door was broken. The new landlord never called me for a referral which leads me to believe he lied to him as well. Should never have made allowances for him when the credit reporting agency gave me a recommendation not to rent to him. No more allowances for anybody from this landlord
