    Arsehole ex landlord has not let out house yet. Went to neighbour’s bleating aww i don’t know why they moved, aww they shoulda put in an offer i woulda sold, awww the agent told me none of this

    Thing is, said neighbour is the tree-swinging little old indian dude. Who i’ve basically been the surrogate daughter to for the past decade. And knows every intimate detail of how it actually went down.

    Suffice to say, Don was pissed and that narrative-spinning conversation did not go as hoped.

      Very satisfying coda to the saga of the shitty ex-landbastard. Surprising he can’t let out a whole house in a good area in this housing crisis! Mayhaps it wasn’t fit to be rented out…?

        He can’t. The roof issue means it fails minimum standards - as officially stated by a CAV building inspector - and has already been flagged with VCAT as such. He’s gotta do those repairs we were on his arse for for fourteen fucking years first

          I feel we are about to begin something similar. Both roof and dodgy rear extension are fit to go down any second. Not looking forward to this!

            ours ended with an illegal eviction attempt and leaving the house we’d lived in for 16 years.

            But on the plus side, we actually bought a house and now don’t shit ourselves in high winds

              Nowhere near that long here, but three burst water mains, a peeling roof, and exploding tile work had me not even bothering to report the dead thing in the chimney. Need a lottery ticket.

      Merry Xmas! 🎄

      E: that was aimed at Almut’s post, but merry Xmas to you, too! Also, nothing like a bit of cold revenge on a nasty landlord, either
