<\/p>\nA HOMEOWNER suffered the experience from hell and was left \u00a31,000 in debt after letting her friend's son stay with her.<\/p>\n
The woman, who chose to remain anonymous, revealed the shocking chain of events on a Money Saving Expert forum.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Posting under the name "Newstart3", she revealed that she offered her spare room to her friend's son on a one month temporary basis.<\/p>\n
Things started out fine but quickly turned into a nightmare, with the initial one month stay turning into almost four months.<\/p>\n
By the end of the toxic cycle, the homeowner booted her friend's son out of the house and was left with an eye-watering bill of around \u00a31,000.<\/p>\n
This included \u00a3140 in bills, a broken \u00a380 kitchen bin, three stolen kitchen mugs worth \u00a360, and an \u00a3800 mattress that was ruined.<\/p>\n
From the get-go, the homeowner set the rules straight: no parties, no strangers round, no loud music, not to enter her bedroom and to tidy up after himself etc.<\/p>\n Despite seeming like a "genuinely nice guy", it didn't take long for things to get off on the wrong foot.<\/p>\n Whilst away for the weekend, the homeowner saw photos of her garden had been shared on Facebook by her friends niece and decided to head home early.<\/p>\n "Arrived home after 2 hours driving to find the house an absolute mess," she revealed.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n "Dishes everywhere, takeaway wrappers, empty bottles, clothes all over the floor, rubbish and cigarette butts all over the garden."<\/p>\n She would then find one of his friends sleeping in her bed and another girl in his bed, before demanding them to leave.<\/p>\n However, despite ringing the boys mother to say he had to leave immediately, she was guilt tripped into giving him a second chance.<\/p>\n Having left home to calm down, she returned to find "a strange girl and a mountain bike in my living room."<\/p>\n Over the next few months, the lad did nothing to help out around the house and began smoking in his bedroom and leaving the bathroom in a mess.<\/p>\n The homeowner, who works full time and was writing her dissertation, could no longer cope.<\/p>\n Her friends son eventually found somewhere else to stay but he'd make sure he'd have one last laugh.<\/p>\n After getting the keys and takng the majority of his stuff on the Friday, he promised to clean and hand his keys over by Sunday afternoon.<\/p>\n The homeowner stayed at her boyfriend's that weekend but when she returned on the Sunday, she discovered that the boy had invited friends over once more.<\/p>\n "Not only had they clearly had a look through all my belongings in my bedroom (clothes moved around in wardrobe, drawers not closed properly), they had also slept in my bed again!'" she fumed.<\/p>\n "At this point I lost the plot and demanded he hand over his key and get out of my house.<\/p>\n "No idea if anything has been taken but it\u2019s difficult to tell. Spend the rest of Sunday cleaning the house and airing the house."<\/p>\n The homeowner added that the boys mother had promised to come round and clean but it never happened, leaving her to sort the mess out on her own.<\/p>\n To make things worse, she received little sympathy from other people in the forum.<\/p>\n One person said: "Why did you let him stay for so long! Why did you not arrange a monthly rent with him? No agreement in place don't see what you can do really."<\/p>\n A second added: "Sorry but you are partly to blame. You allowed the rules to be broken. You should have kicked him out at the first opportunity."<\/p>\n One person did at least offer their support, however.<\/p>\n "Take him to small claims court and get a CCJ against him. Then he really will have a problem finding somewhere to live and his mother will have to take responsibility for the way he behaves," they said.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/newspress-collage-24461847-1697749581491.jpg\")
