A landlord in Perth said his tenant had given him nightmares, and that the house had been damaged and uninhabitable and the repair bill was as high as 30, 000 yuan.
Travis Adams (Travis Adams) said his house was in the southern suburbs of Perth, where a family had been living for three years before they were evicted last week.
When he went to check out the vacant house, it was like a garbage dump. "he was greeted by a source of harmful organisms."
Every room inside was packed with furniture, clothes, garbage, dirty diapers and rotten food, which led to rats and cockroaches. Windows were smashed, ceilings and walls were dirty, and kitchen and hot water systems needed to be replaced.
"it's heartbreaking," Adams said in an interview. "it reminds me of a dump."
He bought landlord insurance (landlord insurance), but was not sure if the damaged property was covered because he did not have a tenant default supplemental clause.
Adams says the experience has cast a shadow over future rentals.
He said, "I may not do that again. I will move back to this place and restore it to a habitable standard. It's a big blow. It's a lack of respect for other people's property, and it allows them to live in such a bad environment, and they'll do it to other rental houses again. "
His sister-in-law, Chamaine Keitel (Charmaine Kettle), has set up a GoFundMe fundraising page to help Adams get through this.
"Adams is one of the best people you've ever seen, one of the cleanest and easiest to get along with," she said. "I hope a few small donations will help him carry out large-scale clean-up work."
"all the walls need to be repainted, floors and kitchens need to be replaced, and cockroaches and rat pests need to be completely eliminated. Copper from the hot water system has been cleaned up, and broken windows have been replaced. As a family, we will all work together to help the house return to its original state. "
