He Had To File For Bankruptcy and Lost His Condo! I'm glad he lost his house! I found this guy on craigslist a few years ago. I like renting condos from private owners as opposed to renting apartments. Typically by renting a condo, it's safer, you have more caring residents, you get to have a luxury apartment style

He lives in another state but we were on the same time zone. On month 8 of my lease, I came home to a door that wouldn't open. I couldn't get the door unlocked for I had two keys on me. As much as I tried to turn them, I couldn't. One of the keys even broke in the lock. I waited two hours. I called, texted, and emailed my landlord and

I had no choice but to call the locksmith plus I had to pee like The locksmith arrives and could not get the door unlocked with my key. He says he can replace the lock for like $100.

    Font - ok so fast forward to the end of my lease. I demand that he does a walk through with me. He said he wouldn't. I told him that if he didn't do a walk through I would be notifying the condo office (as he did not have permission to sublease by the association). He then had a friend to serve as his "proxy" to come meet me and walk through the unit. The place was SPOTLESS! I know how to clean. I took multiple photos and videos and showed his proxy (who is a police officer) the unit. Actually t

    Font - Broken dish washer Broken sink Oven was broke Broken dryer SMFH just all lies! I would NEVER leave a unit in that condition! He sent me an "itemized" list of all the "charges" that magically came out to be $1000. The same as my deposit!! He was always planning to keep my money. He wanted that money to either ball on it or upgrade his condo. I hated him!

    Font - I decided I wasn't going to go to court because I had moved to a different state and live alone but I thought of something.. He rented to me under the table and likely didn't claim my rent payments as earned income. I had all my wire transfers on my bank statement. I had his routing and account number and a copy of his driver's license as we agreed to swap id's when I signed the lease to make sure I wasn't getting scammed.

    Font - I found his out of state address online, gathered all my bank statements, gathered his bank account numbers, and made a report with the IRS! About a few years later, I check up on things and that bastard lost his condo, and lost everything he owned in bankruptcy! I paid for and downloaded his court records and saw proof that he lost everything including his condo and cars and had his bank accounts seized. I'm not sure if he has went to jail or anything but l'm so glad that bastard got his
