sustainable source of income even when
0:36
the economy is in a bad place Thomas had
0:38
spent some time renovating an apartment
0:40
so he could rent it out he took care of
0:43
everything from the plumbing to the
0:44
paint on the walls he even had the
0:46
hardwood floors of the house rebuffed he
0:49
wanted the apartment to stand out as one
0:51
that would make a good home for anyone
0:53
who needed it
0:54
Thomas has been a landlord for a
0:56
considerable amount of years before this
0:58
particular apartment he has bought
1:00
renovated and rented out other
1:03
apartments as well
1:04
all of his tenants in the past have been
1:06
very good and decent people who kept his
1:08
apartments in good condition so when he
1:11
met the new tenants for this apartment
1:12
he had been working hard on he had no
1:15
idea that they would be the tenants from
1:16
hell
1:17
Thomas eventually rented out his home to
1:19
a young couple who had three children
1:21
they looked like a decent family who
1:23
would be able to enjoy the place the
1:25
protocol for renting out a place was
1:27
very simple
1:28
all he had to do was make the tenant
1:30
sign a contract and they can move it
1:32
immediately everything had been going
1:35
smoothly until it was time for the first
1:37
rent to be paid
1:38
Thomas checked his bank account a couple
1:40
of times that week and found that no
1:42
money came in from his tenants Thomas
1:44
decided to let it go and thought that
1:47
many of the family just forgot about the
1:49
rental however weeks turned into months
1:51
and there was no rent to be seen Thomas
1:54
started to get worried
1:56
he decided to give the apartment a call
1:58
no one was picking up Thomas dialed the
2:01
number a few times but the tenants
2:03
seemed to be off the radar
2:04
Thomas tried all that he can to
2:06
communicate with the family none of his
2:08
letters calls and messages were returned
2:11
14 months have passed when he decided to
2:13
visit the apartment himself
2:15
While most landlords would start
2:17
evicting tenants after just a few months
2:19
of not paying the rent Thomas had been
2:22
very patient and waited for more than a
2:24
year before a personal confrontation
2:27
when the landlord walked up to the door
2:29
of the apartment he noticed a small
2:31
handwritten note on the door the note
2:33
said ring this doorbell Thomas was
2:37
confused why wouldn't they hear the
2:39
knocks on the door it was not a huge
2:41
Place Thomas started looking for the
2:43
doorbell and what he found instead
2:45
shocked him the doorbell had been pulled
2:48
off from its socket it looked like
2:49
someone tried to wire it or tamper with
2:52
it what's going on
2:54
but Thomas's curiosity got the best of
2:56
him and he decided to press the doorbell
2:58
a disturbing and loud sound was produced
3:01
no one seemed to answer his knocks on
3:03
the door or the disturbingly loud
3:05
doorbell
3:06
Thomas concluded that nobody was home so
3:10
he decided to use his spare key to get
3:12
inside the apartment the moment the door
3:14
opened he immediately knew that
3:16
something was wrong be a partner was a
3:19
mess it looked like a dumpster with
3:21
trash overflowing out of every corner
3:23
and room the horrible smell was
3:25
overwhelming
3:27
How could a family with three young kids
3:28
live this way isn't it illegal for
3:31
someone to raise children in an
3:33
environment that was as unhealthy and
3:35
filthy as this one the furniture he had
3:37
provided for the apartment were
3:39
destroyed and broken even the walls were
3:42
not spared there were holes in the
3:44
drywall the sight of what had happened
3:46
to the apartment Thomas had renovated
3:48
himself was heartbreaking
3:50
he decided to teach these tenants a
3:52
lesson
3:53
of course Thomas was a reasonable man he
3:56
had to make sure that whatever plan he
3:58
would execute he would have the law by
4:00
his side the first thing he did was to
4:02
take a lot of pictures for proof then he
4:05
sent those pictures to a lawyer and
4:08
discussed what could be done about the
4:09
situation Thomas also asked some people
4:12
to come over to the apartment and check
4:14
it out so that they can be called in as
4:16
Witnesses Thomas felt angry that the
4:18
tenants had abandoned the apartment this
4:20
way after paying no rent for more than a
4:22
year
4:23
Thomas could not believe the state of
4:25
the apartment that he had spent so much
4:27
time renovating on he could not help but
4:29
take pictures of the trash department
4:31
and post him on Facebook
4:33
his post went viral in a few days
4:35
everyone was shocked to see the before
4:37
and after photos and could not believe
4:40
that a family could live that way
4:42
what the tenants did to raval was
4:44
inhumane Thomas knew that this situation
4:47
meant no space for negotiations a family
4:50
that can live this way and avoids paying
4:52
rent for a year will not be a family
4:54
that can be negotiated with no matter
4:56
what their motivations or reasons were
4:59
for abandoning the apartment this way
5:00
Thomas knew that this was not a matter
5:03
to settle in court
5:04
Thomas knew that the only way he can get
5:06
some form of justice is to give them a
5:08
taste of their own medicine
5:10
Thomas knew that he had to clean out the
5:12
apartment himself and get the trash out
5:14
what happened in the apartment was too
5:16
much for him to do so he Enlisted the
5:18
help of a cleaning service but he did
5:21
not ask them to throw the trash out just
5:23
yet he just wanted everything out of the
5:25
apartment and to have the apartment
5:27
cleaned he had plans for all the things
5:29
in garbage the tenants had left behind
5:31
you must be wondering what Thomas did
5:34
with all that trash the family left
5:36
behind
5:37
it turned out he set them aside to be a
5:40
part of his plans for Revenge Thomas
5:42
hired a truck to keep all the garbage
5:44
and other stuff the tenants Left Behind
5:46
when his apartment was finally cleared
5:48
and cleaned the landlord could not wait
5:51
to work on his revenge
5:52
Thomas spent some time trying to track
5:54
down the tenants he had to find out
5:56
where they were so that he can do his
5:58
revenge soon enough he found out that
6:01
the family moved in a place not so far
6:03
from the apartment and he was able to
6:05
get an address
6:06
Thomas drove to the location and had the
6:09
garbage truck he rented behind him he
6:11
planned to make a surprise visit where
6:13
his extents will not be able to see him
6:15
coming
6:16
Thomas had a surprise delivery for them
6:19
when they reached the new address of the
6:21
tenants Thomas started filming as the
6:23
truck backed up in front of the driveway
6:26
people who were around started to stop
6:28
and see what was about to happen people
6:30
watched in shock as the truck backed up
6:32
and deposited all its contents right by
6:35
the front door all this time Thomas was
6:38
unable to hold back his smile and
6:39
happiness as he continued to film the
6:42
commotion
6:43
for Thomas he believed that the only
6:45
Revenge he could give is to do to the
6:47
couple what they had done to him the
6:49
couple trashed his apartment and he was
6:51
going to deliver back that trash to them
6:53
Thomas was a smart man he made sure he
6:56
thought ahead before the plan took place
6:59
he could confirm the legality of his
7:01
actions so that you will not be in
7:03
trouble with the law
7:04
the new tenants are accountable for it
7:06
instead of the new landlord Thomas
7:08
explained that the pictures he had
7:10
posted of the trash department do not
7:12
even fully capture the extent of the
7:14
damages done to it everything needed
7:17
serious repairs from the walls to the
7:19
floor the entire Place had to be
7:21
thoroughly disinfected Thomas also went
7:24
as far as talking to the authorities
7:25
beforehand before laying out his plan
7:28
when it came to legal issues the
7:31
landlord had no fear because the law was
7:33
by his side for those wondering Thomas
7:35
was told later on that the couple was
7:37
forced to deal with the mess themselves
7:39
mission accomplished Thomas believed
7:42
that the Revenge he made was justified
7:43
it had to be brutal because of the lack
7:46
of respect the rent that was never paid
7:48
plus the damages that had to be repaired
7:51
he had to spend a small fortune to clean
7:53
and fix the apartment the unique way
7:56
that Thomas taught his tenants from how
7:57
the lesson was indeed a story that stood
7:59
out and went viral a lot of landlords
8:02
from all over the world applauded his
8:04
moves and related his struggles
8:06
Thomas was lucky in a way that the
8:08
family moved out of their own accord
8:10
because in America getting rid of
8:12
tenants is not that easy
8:14
landlords started sharing their own
8:16
horror stories about tenants they have
8:18
had and they were inspired by Thomas to
8:21
take action now that the apartment is
8:23
cleared and clean we hope Thomas will be
8:26
able to rent it out to a more decent
8:27
tenant and that he would not wait for
8:30
about a year before he starts asking for
8:32
rent this time
