I heard a story where in a house share, there was a really noisy roommate. He would play loud music late at night, every night. Not only that, but he also had friends over constantly who were equally noisy. The other housemates couldn't get any proper sleep or study in peace. They tried to talk to him, but he just ignored them and continued his inconsiderate behavior.
There was this old rooming house where the electricity was always flickering. One day, a new tenant moved in. That night, while trying to sleep, they saw a shadowy figure pass by their door. They thought it was another tenant at first. But when they asked around the next day, no one had been out at that time. The flickering lights added to the spooky atmosphere, and they ended up moving out soon after.
There was a rental where the lights would flicker on and off by themselves, especially in the basement. The tenant once went down to check and felt an extreme coldness that was not normal for a basement. When they looked around, they thought they saw a shadowy figure out of the corner of their eye. After that, they were too scared to stay and moved out immediately.
One horror story is finding a seemingly perfect house. But when moving in, we realized there was a serious mold problem in the basement that the previous owner had hidden. It cost a fortune to fix.
There was a house sitter who noticed that things in the house were being moved around when they were sure no one else was there. At first, they thought they were just misplacing things. But then they saw doors opening and closing on their own. It turned out that there was a problem with the house's old wiring, which was causing electrical surges that made the automated doors malfunction. It was really spooky until they figured it out.
One horror story is when a couple bought a house without a proper inspection. After moving in, they found out the roof was leaking badly. Every time it rained, water would pour into the living room, ruining their furniture. They had to spend a large amount of money on roof repairs right away.
A family had a horror story where the renovation crew misread the blueprints. They ended up knocking down a load - bearing wall by mistake. This not only put the whole structure at risk but also cost the homeowners a fortune to repair and reinforce the house properly. It involved a lot of legal hassle too as the renovation company initially refused to take responsibility.
Well, once I went to an open house where there was a really strange smell. It was like a mix of old food and something rotting. Turns out the owner had a hidden rat problem in the attic. It was so gross and made the whole experience awful.
A friend of mine had a house sitting horror story. He was taking care of a large house. One day, he noticed that some of the food in the pantry was being eaten, but he was alone in the house. Then he found mouse droppings everywhere. Turns out, there was a massive mouse infestation that the homeowners hadn't told him about. He had to deal with trying to catch the mice all by himself while also taking care of the house.
One horror story is when a couple bought a house without a proper inspection. After moving in, they found out the roof was leaking badly. Every time it rained, water would seep into their bedrooms and living room, ruining their furniture. It cost them a fortune to fix the roof, which they hadn't budgeted for.
Sure. One horror story is when a family was about to sell their house. They had found a buyer who seemed really interested. But just before the closing, the buyer backed out without any real explanation. The family had already made plans based on the sale money, like buying a new home in another state. It was a nightmare as they had to start the selling process all over again.
