"We heard some rumours and decided to make a surprise visit only to realise he modified the entire property without consent.

"This man wasn't even paying rent and he was ignoring all our calls..."

The family member noted that the tenant went as far as promoting the "bar and lounge" heavily on social media, advertising its rooms as private suites.

After the tenant ignored the court case, the family showed up with law enforcement agents.

Tension between landlord and tenant

Another TikTok clip on the lady's page showed the different modifications and damages the man had done on the property.

She stated that he returned a faulty water pumping machine when they told him the one they installed had been removed.

The landlord's daughter stated they had to tolerate the man's attitude for years because her US-based mother wanted to recoup the money she had spent on the house.
