I am a traveling healthcare worker. When I spoke to ***** about seeking residence in ********** *******, he stated that he, his sister, and friend bought nine homes in ****** ******* and flipped them to help healthcare workers like myself. He stated the houses were clean and new. I signed a five month contract to rent **************************************************************************. I paid a $1000 deposit and paid rent of $2000. Upon entry of the house I could clearly see it had not been cleaned (feces on light switches, blood on bathroom door). He stated that he had a cleaning girl, a local college girl. He does not have a property manager nor housekeeper that are verified. There were multiple mouse traps in the house, many with fresh mouse excrement and one mouse trap was under the main bedroom bed. There were multiple termites in the house, large spiders, one bit me while I slept, mice and other insects freely roaming the house. The washing machine only ran hot water, some windows are siliconed locked from the inside, and home-made floor vents (brown panels with slats) allows mice and other bugs entry (I suspect the furnace heats the crawl space which routes into house). The furnace filter had not been changed in a very long time (attached pic of green thing), and there was a large hole in the wall near the hot water heater, which his friend addressed. There were many gaps in the wall panels which allowed bugs and air in as well as hole in the walls and door frames.I dont want him preying on others because he doesnt have property managers ********* cleaners. I told him the house was unsafe and unsanitary. He allowed me to break the lease and I received my whole deposit back. Its been stressful finding other places to live now because I took this 6-month contract because I signed the lease with him.He over-promises and under-delivers. He has a silver tongue and no ethics in his profession.I believe he is in violation of a few health codes and safety codes.
