Landlord's Nightmare

My neighbours moved out today.....this is what was left behind. It's difficult to believe anybody could live in this kind of condition but it's true, I promise. No mess was made by me for photographic enhancement...what you see is EXACTLY how it was left. The only thing left to your imagination is the smell. It gets into your clothes within minutes and stays for hours. OK....update after so many comments. Just for the information of a couple of people whose comments I hid, the family were white. Also, maybe I didn't make it clear but I am NOT the landlord (thankfully). I am another of his tenants, living NOT like the couple in the photos. I actually pay my rent, so I have no worries about a similar eviction happening to me. Another thing I almost forgot to mention is that this couple are BOTH ex-military. He was a Sgt in the US Marine Corps and she was something in the Air Force. Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought the military would have taught them a little more self-respect than this.

I've been cleaning a two bedroom house for a elderly couple where the tenant was a total pig. He threw garbage all over the place. There was dog and cat shit all over the house but mostly in the bedrooms and what was worse because he didn't pay the water bill in the 8 that he lived there, there was four 5 gallon buckets of human waste. There was shit in the kitchen sink where he was dumping sewage down it. I took out 20 large trash bags and plus 2 ratty couches and other furniture. It was the worse apt that I ever saw until I came across these photos. I'm glad to run across these photo to show the elderly couple that I'm doing the house cleaning for that it could of been a lot worse for them.

Was going to rent my house 1800 miles away. Teetering - no. going to sell. Most renters don't understand that it IS work being a landord. Restoring a home over the course of years without pay, making everything perfect, and asking a few hundred bucks from someone so they can come in and trash it and blame you for TAKING instead of GIVING. House rental is not charity. Social Security Disability is charity. So many people applied to rent - healthy adults who derive most of their income from SSD and get the rest in CASH from side construction jobs. This country is a MESS with it.

A CHILD lives like this????? It's bad enopugh that they influct this on themselves but they don't deserve a kid...I hope this gets to the right people & they take their kid away!

Jeanne		12-Feb-2012 01:57
This is the reason landlords must do inspections and noted in lease. Inspections avoid this disgust. Another reason - tenants may have intentionally caused this horror as revenge -

AMD		30-Aug-2011 19:26
Its hard to see the pic. and see what some people think. My Mom is a horder, I love her to death, but since elemenrty school I have been trying to clean her house, I'm 27 now, and I'm still fighting it. Its hard when it is someone you love. It is a mental illness, a lot of people have it. And it is very hard and expensive to get treatment. I hope these people wil get help for the sake of their child, and themselves.

Revel		11-Aug-2011 18:56
To the guest with the teenage girl problem...went through the same type of thing. Fixed it by bagging everything up and tossing it into storage-as is condition. When they have nothing to wear, you would be surprised what happens...I mean I took everything. Once it hit the floor or became dirty looking, it was mine! If they wanted the clothes back, they got one bag at a time and were made to wash them and put them away. If I found things on the floor, I started the whole process again. It took about three times and then the piggyness was not an issue again.

bonny		18-Nov-2010 05:36
you, knoww, some1 would pay highly for that house....it is modern art....have a few beers get stone...yiu will love it...just think sex on the dirt

Guest		10-Jul-2009 04:13
Its truly amazing how that place did not catch on fire... if there ever was a spark in there I bet the whole place would be up in smoke in about 90 seconds and you would see the flames for miles!

Guest		30-May-2009 16:26
I believe it. I just took some photos of my 13 and 15 year old's bedrooms that look pretty comparable. the bathroom too. If my husband and I didn't clean up after them, it would be this bad in 2 months. Yet these girls (yes girls) are so particular about their hair and makeup and what they wear--- they just throw their clothes on the floor after wearing them and I guess do a "sniff" test. I do laundry every week and have to literally beg for items from them to wash. We have just gotten to the point that we will close their bedroom doors and not look. Five more years and they will be out of the house or I will be.... I will not live like this nor take care of anyone over 18. I am embarassed; I feel like a failure; we are not slobs in any way; they are not on drugs, their grades are fine... I don't understand it. This only happened in the past couple of years. They just don't care. And they will sit in their filthy rooms for hours and listen to their ipods. It's crazy. I feel bad for their future roommates. Maybe they will grow up someday, but after seeing these photos I'm not so sure.

guest		16-Apr-2009 14:07
How would someone live their life like that you could not even move around the way you wanted to in that house you are clustered.please do something about that thats nasty for someone to see pictures of that how nasty...

I don't believe this. I think someone just picked up all of the garbage bags on trash day for the entire neighborhood and dumped them in the house. Nobody has garbage up covering their childs bed. I think that this is fake.

WHEN A "NICE" COUPLE WANTED TO BUY MY 5 YRS OLD HOUSE (THEY WERE RECOMMENDED BY A MINISTER) I AGREED TO LET THEM IN ON A PRE-SALES OCCUPANCY AGREEMENT AND $11,000 DOWN TO THEY COULD CLOSE WHICH WAS SUPPOSED TO BE IN 3 MONTHS. AFTER 8 MONTHS OF EXCUSES I THREW THEM AND THEIR THREE COCKROACH KIDS OUT ONLY TO FIND GARBAGE AS BAD AS BELOW PLUS DOGS AND CATS HAD CRAPPED ALL OVER, DOORS TORN OFF THE HINGES AND BROKE, HOLES IN THE WALLS IN EVERY ROOM, BROKEN SINKS AND TOILETS, REFRIG STOVE AND DISH WASHER DESTROYED, 4 JUNK CARS IN THE YARD, A "HOUSEHOLD" DUMP IN THE BACK YARD, DEAD CHICKENS, GUINEA PIGS AND A DEAD DOG UNDER THE HOUSE AND ON AND ON. AS IT TURNED OUT WHEN WE WERE CLEANING UP THEIR CRAP, I FOUND A "DIARY" THAT THE WIFE HAD BEEN KEEPING THAT SAID THEY HAD ALSO DONE THIS TO 2 OTHER PLACES.. THEIR NAMES WERE KEVIN AND KATHY DINGMAN FROM AROUND BINGHAMTON,VESTAL AND WHITNEY POINT, NY.

Guest		04-Nov-2007 18:13
I have been in property management since 1981 and while I have never had an encounter of this magnitude I am always amused when neophytes talk about buying a house and renting it out. Currently we are in a condo setting and people are having trouble selling their condos . . . so they are renting them out . . . totally unmindful and ignorant of just what being a landord can entail. All they see is that monthly rent paying for the property while they wait for the value to rise. There are and will be a lot of sorry people out there who think this is just a whiz . . .

Ms. Randi Scott		02-Nov-2007 14:08
I understand why you had to specify 'This couple was White' since it is usually blacks,Latinos and drug dealers that have a house like this.

Is the apartment still available to rent? Me and my boyfriend's ex wife's kids need a place to stay while he's up at the state penn for six month's. We can definitely keep it as good or better that it is now currently. Jesus bless you all.

Guest		16-Aug-2007 19:13
Kill it with fire :}

rick		07-Aug-2007 04:59
This is nothing compared to my landlord nightmare. My tenant was a drug dealer. The police knocked the door down just after the tenant shot 2 cops through the door. The cops then fired 82 rounds into the walls, cabinet, fridge, window, and closet doors. This didn't include the 20 rounds they put into my tenant which killed him. It has taken two months to clean up the mess. Blood spatter, glass everywhere, and blood filled carpet.

I'm not these people but I once lived in a house like these pictures. I'm thrilled that we no longer live like that and could never go back but I'm glad I stayed with my mom no matter how our house was. My mom had never been June Cleaver but then my dad suddenly died and we were all left alone and dysfunctional and she was bed ridden. So maybe you jerks who are hellbent on judgment should try lending a hand to those who obviously are in need before throwing your stones.

I manage the two rentals of my grandmothers estate. I also grew up renting. I remember houses that my dad would find to rent that were worse then this. But the rent was cheap. We spent over a week cleaning and hauling stuff off to the dump at our own expense. Then we painted the entire interior. My dad likes to fix things. two months later the landlord shows up and sees a nice clean house inside and out with a nice green lawn and goes "dang Im going to have to up the rent on this place". If you want to rent from me you have to agree to pay for and pass a complete background check. plus have references and names of previous landlords plus a credit check and your info sure as hell better show no descrepancies off what I find on the internet. You wont believe I many white trash people just walk away after seeing my requirements.

I still don`t understand how can the landlord let it come this far?!? You can be trusting and all but it takes a while to make this sort of a mess and if you don`t take care of your property, don`t expect anyone else who will.

Washi		27-May-2007 08:03
Because no one seems to have asked this yet - was there a child living in this? I somewhat assume so, from the child's bed, but maybe the child had already been taken away (notice that there is no mattress on the child's bed, it only has the headboard and runners)? As for the mental breakdown thing. Two years ago I myself had a mental breakdown - resulting in me learning that I had bipolar disorder. I was never anywhere near this messy. Yes I let myself go, but I had enough decency to clean up after myself, and most of the time I was alone anyway. I also have mentally ill family members (worse than just bipolar disorder) who have more decency than this. So I wouldn't chalk it up to "they're mentally ill". There was something wrong with these people, yes - possibly a mental disorder, possibly just laziness. I don't know. I find it interesting that the -basement- seems to be the cleanest of the entire place. While I'm sure some of this was "Let us get revenge!" the -filth- of it makes me doubt that all of it was. I mean, look at the stove, the counter, etc that you can see through the mess. It takes a while to build that up (I should know, I live in a dorm. We try to keep clean, but it doesn't always work). Open the windows, clean it out, and put in some major air fresheners. Eww. I'm sorry for your landlord, truly I am, and I'm sorry for you too, since you have to live next to this, and will be living next to the cleanup too. Blech. I'm sorry :( No one should have to live with the effects of these people, if they can be called as such >:P

evilbocock		27-May-2007 04:59
Hey I'm the cable dude and I see this every day. Methheads, cracky and poor white trash are the standered rule. Nothing worse than a house that stinks so bad that the stench seeps through the windows. EMT dude is right. A true horder can tell you where everything is in a heart beat. The only thing worse is creepy cat lady. 8-9 litter boxes and mancat spray. I've had to bug bomb cable boxes to kill all the roaches living in it.

JFW EMT		26-May-2007 02:14
I'm in Emergency Services, I've been called to homes like this to check on a tenant.. sometimes they're already dead and sometimes they're ill on the floor trapped under their own squalor.. this isn't hoarding though, believe it or not hoarding is much neater, stuff is 'organized' and stacked up in hoarding. Just from my own experience I disagree with the opinion that it's entirely staged as revenge; look at the layers upon -layers- of stuff especially on the stove, as well as the condition of the bathroom/tub. Some extra trash may well have been brought in after the fact and strewn about yes, but there's also either a pathological breakdown going on here or addiction(s), maybe both. I've been to residences like this where there were meth- and crackheads staying, I also knew of a home looking similar to this in a family with an alcoholic father, and there was a wife and 2 kids living in the mess literally ankle to knee deep in clothes and trash...the older son was a friend of my brother's. Urgh. it's funny, I can handle the smell of a -week old rotting corpse- better than I can a house full of garbage like this. Brrr. I don't envy you one bit sir.

guest		26-May-2007 01:12
If you ever watch Animal Planet you see homes like this all the times; the hoarders. There's also a show on BBC America called "How Clean Is Your House" where people come in to help clean up peoples houses that look like this. There are usually trails and a place to sleep open, and garbage everywhere else. It is surprisingly common.

Amanda		26-May-2007 00:59
I cannot believe you said you wouldn't call children's services because it's not your business? This IS your business and your responsibility. How can anyone sleep at night knowing a child is literally living in shit? Ugh.

If I was evicted I wouldn't mind leaving a mess like that out of spite. As for the USMC thing. Any armed force has some screwed up people in it. These pictures remind me of what my bothers old roomate at Cherry Point NC wanted to live like.

Big T		24-May-2007 23:34
Ya whatever, you missed the best part. You should have taken picks of what was underneath all that stuff. Da ya think someone may of had a meth addiction or something. Realy it looks alright, they just forgot to take out the trash on their way to work.

Guest		24-May-2007 19:20
I hope, in their defense, that they had to leave in a hurry. But gods... who could sleep in a room piled high with rotting food and other garbage?

This has to be a mental disorder. The odd thing is that it was two adults with the same problem. Unfortuneately, a child has to suffer. I would have called Social Services for the welfare of the child, and the Commmanding Officers of the parents. I've also seen cars like this--packed to the roof with crap and only enough room for the driver. It must be a pack-rat syndrome of some kind. Bizarre.

I've seen as bad i once had a brother-in-law and sister-in-law who done this everywhere they lived then they would move! I actually tried to help them move once! My ex's brother-in -law puked when we picked up the fridg.....rotten blood from a hind quarter of a deer ran out of the bottom on what was supposed to be the floor....and we had to carry it clear through the house because you couldn't get to the kitchen door!!!There were dried uphot dogs in the couch amung other things that i was disgusted by!!!! Needless to say that was the last time i helped!!! But then they got on meth and lost everything including there kids! And there home which they had finally bought but you couldn't see it from the road because of the juck cars!! And weeds! Yes they had bought this one!!Beautiful farm when they bought it but sold for less than a 1/4 of what they paid for it!! WHAT A SHAME!!!

Respect is taught at home. If parents don't have it, how can they teach the children..My daughter's room used to look like that until one day I took everything and threw it out the front window. She had to pick it up and put it away. She never left her room like that again..

Investigate your ass you dink

Guest		20-May-2007 04:12
As an investigator I can tell you this much. This is a set up scene. Classic among vengeful people. Military is possible as one comment was made they dont teach people to be respectful, though they do expect it. Meth user is likely, lab not likely at all. Cobwebs are created by dry air connected to static electricity or dead air in a closet. If the air is too dry in a meth lab, neither home would exist. Many would think highly toward mental illness, for view of the bathroom and the condition of the shower. However, I'm thinking disrespectful people who were pissed at the landlord. I agree with one comment that stated that they used a dumpster from KFC. Seeing as there is KFC in the fridge, I'm thinking one may have worked there and brought the garbage home. My real concern is seeing the childs bed. I have to wonder about the welfare of any child that would live in these conditions.(ie:cobwebs, bathtub) My main reason for thinking partial vengeance. Look how clean the starway carpets are. Thats just clutter. They just filled it up with trash and bailed. Race is not an issue and cannot be concluded only by anyone who lived there. As far as Immigrants. Doubtful, if illegal they would be with family and probably not have the information needed to get the lease in the first place. As you said the exterior bore no resemblence to what was inside. Thats because most of the inside was trashed days before these pics were taken. Yes, a few days can really bring out an odor of a high degree. Just my opinion, you are welcome to your own.

This is why america should erect a fence around it's borders! erect two actually! 100 feet in between both fences and stick 1,000,000 pitbulls between the fences.If the immigrant can get past 1,000,000 pissed off pitbulls then he can enter the country.

fred		19-May-2007 15:55
hey Mussolini , Nervous breakdown or not,there is no excuse for anyone to live in those conditions nor did the landlord deserve to have to contend with these peoples mess or problems! I put part of the blame on the landlord for OBVIOUSLY not calling references before handing over the keys because I am sure these people have screwed another landlord over in the past.This is not something new to these scumbags and it is too obvious.I also doubt these people were once military personel.The service enforces hygiene and usually 99% of the time people that are clean tend to remain clean.

fred		19-May-2007 15:48
my mother-in-law moved and left an apartment looking like that and I took pictures before taking his keys to him as evidence since she was too embarressed to een confront the guy herself.He never even sued her over it! Unbeleivable...I would have held her accountable! Maybe there needs to be a website devoted to showing the world what pigs people can be by posting their name,photo and photos of the destruction they leave behind.This is why I will NEVER lease my home out.

ebrown		19-May-2007 15:36
Ok just looked through all the pictures. I think you had some tweakers on your hands. You got lucky they didn't break into your house and steal you blind. The giveaway is the pile of computers that have been taken apart and left in a pile. Meth heads have an insatiable desire to take stuff apart and they never throw anything away. Too bad. Your landlord had better hope they were only using and not cooking-but you would have smelled it if they were cooking I'd think. Clean up from a meth lab is REAL expensive.

ebrown		19-May-2007 15:30
I don't know. I am betting this is revenge for getting evicted. I'd venture to say they raided a KFC dumpster and strew the stuff about the house. If they did not have much money, the older furniture and stuff might be what they actually owned being obtained as freebies or hand me downs.

This vermin should be tracked down and exterminated like the filthy scum they certainly are. I've seen an apartment in a 3-4 year old bldg. An unmarried 20-something couple with a friend and a child. The trash was nearly as bad but what was really sad is they defecated in discarded pizza boxes and wrote a nasty 18" high goodbye note on the the walls with their own excrement. They let the rent go and skipped out in the middle of the night. It was the most discusting sight I had ever witnessed until the mess these two arseholes left behind.I stand my first statement. HUNT THEM DOWN & EXTERMINATE.

I'm a contractor who works mostly on property insurance claims. Last year we rebuild the interior of a house but we had to pull our crew out because the owner was moving in when we came back to complete the job (about 2 weeks later) the house looked like the one in those pictures. Nobody in my crew wanted to work there one of my guys got fleas from the place, I believe it is a sort of mental illness, its the only way this makes sense.

BJO65		18-May-2007 01:01
I live in rental property ,and see this crap all of the time. I would never own rental property ,for this reason. Some folks can be slobs.

Guest		18-May-2007 00:19
It's a wonder how you got in there to take pictures without needing a shovel to wade through the garbage. It doesn't even look like anyone lived there with all that trash heaped up. There's no place to sit down, let alone stand. Looks like they used the place as a giant squalid dumpster.

Guest		17-May-2007 23:37
Any one of you have thought of the possibility of the tenant was pissed off? There's no space for living activities. So this is not what it looks like when the tenant was in. Thanks for the immigrants! Americans are just plain too stupid!

Guest		17-May-2007 23:03
I have rental property. This is how some people treat the landlord after they try to be nice and give them a place to stay.

Guest		17-May-2007 19:37
this is how my bipolar schizophrenic son would leave his room. He also has hording behavior from OCD. This is the aftermath of mentally ill people, has nothing to do with race or ethnicity. Even tho they have jobs and can function, this is mental illness.

Big Daddy		17-May-2007 13:24
What is sad is that the basement is the cleanest part of the house, back when I owned my own home the basement was the only thing that was ever even a little cluttered and all that was was boxes of stuff that had no better place to be, damn I hope that landlord gets full repayment for the damages seeing that he is probaly going to have to burn the place down

Good questions from the anonymous guest 4 posts ago. No, it's not an apartment. Its a duplex. For those who don't know what that is, its like 2 houses next to each other, sharing 1 wall. I, unfortunately, rent the house that joins this one. You would never have guessed the manner in which they lived. The outside of the house bore no indication of how much they had trashed the place. The smell was not noticable from our house.I strongly suspect that after they found out they were being evicted, they emptied trash bags throughout the house. This still does not explain the cobwebs and other crap obviously accumulated though. Yes, it's easy to say how stupid the landlord is for not checking more regularly. However, the landlord is a very nice and trusting guy who is not constantly on our backs checking up on us. He made a bad call on this one and was repaid by a couple of absolutely disgusting scum bags who live in this filth. Personally, I think they should be shot. Several times. Then shot some more.

Guest		16-May-2007 20:36

We JUST had renters like this, took two dumpsters and multiple trailer loads to the dump. The didn't have garbage service so they just piled it all in the garage, where inevitably wild cats moved in and peed and pooped on all the trash. We were in a sea of old diapers, tampons and douche bottles. We needed to bleach ourselves after cleaning that up.

Guest		16-May-2007 04:43
wow

Guest		16-May-2007 04:13
First off, there's something totally not right with ANY person who would live like that. Something WAY off in the mental health area. Or drugs had something to do with things. And I have to ask, if this was an apartment, how could it go so long without anyone in the neighboring apartments noticing, seeing, smelling, etc? ESPECIALLY the landlord? Every landlord I have ever had has always made an appearance to check his property, sent maintenance people in to do work, etc. Yes, it is not the fault of the landlord, but I have to lay some blame at his/her feet for not being a little more vigilant about checking on the properties. Regardless of any of the reasons or causes, it's just disgusting that anybody could allow things to ever progress to such a state, especially in this country.

Hugh Jass		16-May-2007 00:05
What? I don't see anything wrong, except that they didn't finish that KFC drink. Really, I am sorry anybody had to clean that up..

Guest		15-May-2007 22:58
Ahh see the blanket on the window is a clear indication of a tweaker! What your landlord had is a clear cut tweak/METH house, he's lucky the tweakers left, I've seen houses condemed because of tweakers/METHHEADS messing with plumbing, wiring, etc. I saw worse in the San Gabriel Valley of California.

Graham Hallett		15-May-2007 20:58
I will try and get some pictures of the place after it's cleaned. The trash has all gone now...it took 3 dumpsters. My father-in-law and his friend took all the trash out of the place and were very nearly sick from the smell. The carpet is about to be ripped out and disposed of. No, they were not on drugs as far as I could tell. No, they were not hugely obese....maybe kind of chunky. Yes, they both had full time jobs. No, I myself have not called child services. I don't consider it my business. I can not, however, speak for the landlord.

Lee		15-May-2007 20:00
Man, you seriously need to post some "AFTER" pictures once the landlord cleans the place.

Believe it or not, i once rented to an Indian and 2 Pakistani guys and they left the apartment worse than this place! They lived like animals. They even took the doors off! I had to hire guys to haul the crap away. Later I found out that they rented another place and did $8,000.00 damage. They turned on the water and left besides leaving a mess like this. One was an exec. for Citibank and the other 2 got their educations here for free and moved back to their countries after running up charges etc. Renting is a scary thing!

I agree with itazurakko. I once had a roommate that would not let us throw anything away in the name or "recycling". Only she never actually did any recycling so we had piles of aluminum & piles of plastic wrap & cardboard & plastic containers everywhere, I hated it. Then there is the economic angle....just cant afford garbage pick up. But then there is the stench of piss & rotting garbage. To some people, that is the comforting smell of "Home" because that is how they were raised.

After she told me that,I got to thinking.......I never did see them put any trash out to be picked up. We have to pay $19 a month to have it picked up, I guess they wanted to save money!

itazurakko		11-May-2007 15:42
It's hoarders. Compulsive hoarding. I imagine they walked out on all of it because it'd just be too much effort for them to sort through. Easier to hire the pros (there are companies that specialize in cleaning up these situations). Very often it's an OCD type thing, where they really can't throw anything out, because they'd have to sort it, and that function has broken down. So, actual trash and rotting food gets mingled with regular clutter, and it all snowballs from there.

Christine		11-May-2007 15:30
HI, Yes it all looks familiar- and I could add the magotts and cockroaches in the refrigerator, counters and bottom of the stove, also the tenant was into "Voodoo" and left me with a box of decaying chicken skins. I have never been the same!!!!

joanb		11-May-2007 14:04
This looks just like my rental property when I finally got in after the court ordered the tenants to quit. The worst thing for me was that the two kitties they had were left behind locked in the house for who knows how many days before the sherrif and I got in. The poor little cats were just starving! There are beings amongst us who are only pretending to be human; and not doing a very good job of it. By the way, a garbage service came in and $700 later had all the trash moved out.
