We had a visit from the prior tenant tonight. He knocked on our door right at dinner time. I went to answer it at which point he told me about his prior experience with the owners (who live next door).
He is clearly a disgruntled tenant. He mentioned a few things. He said he had to pay $600 to clean the house, $200 to fix the ripped screen downstairs (not fixed), $500 to fix an iron scorch in the floor (not fixed very well).
He mentioned that Sue (the woman owner) was always on the property and that they had received a settlement from QCAT. He went on a huge rant about her.
He told us to document every scratch, cracked window to cover ourselves.
Needless to say, Cyp and I were quite depressed after the entire exchange. As noted, there are a lot of issues with the house - we had filled out the condition inspection report, but missed a few things. We did not have a very good sleep.
That said - the owners have been really great to us so far but at this point, we no longer feel like this is our home but something that we have to make sure we do not damage. I hope to talk to Sue today to gauge the situation.
