The same landlord that had been collecting rent for the last 6 or 7 months without paying their home mortgage. The same landlord that forgot to tell anyone else who mattered.

Yet another victim of “foreclosure” or ”the credit crunch” or “mortgage crisis” or ”real estate bubble” or ”insert-your-favorite-phase-here”… and they didn’t even own a home.
