Problems with Lodger now more serious
Comments
-
In terms of problems in the house, he hasn't done anything as far as I can see. He's just kept himself to himself and gone to his room when I've been in. I'm still keeping the precautions of keeping phone / wallet / keys with me at all times and not leaving the dog alone in the house with him
I would add your laptop (if that's what you're using) to that list.
By the way, well done you for also protecting your dog :T0 -
Any further news? You, the dog and the house ok?0

Only just re-visited this thread. He moved out today with no issues
Thanks for your concern by the way!0 -
Glad to hear it was resolved with few problems. Bet you feel a lot better now.0

Thanks. He was actually quite amicable in the end and I ended up feeling slightly bad about kicking him out, but there was no going back.
Got 2 viewings on the room over the weekend so hopefully it won't be sat empty for too long0 -
At this point I would be changing the locks.
I may be paranoid and a cynic, but those of us that are don't get surprised very often.0 -
I too would change the lock. Better safe than sorry.
Keep the old lock, and when your next lodger leaves, change it back again. It's called recycling!
