Toxic Roommate = Move Out Disaster! Sisters at War Over Rental

Family drama just collided with property management… and it’s not pretty.

In this case, two sisters were roommates on a rental lease. One sister packed up and left, abandoning the other to deal with all the trash, unfinished painting, cleaning, and yardwork. Now the responsible sister is stuck trying to do it all — and the property is nowhere near ready for move-out inspection.

👉 Here’s the problem: their lease has already ended. If the property isn’t vacated and turned back over, this could become a legal issue. That means summary ejectment, security deposit deductions, and possibly even eviction proceedings if they drag it out.

This is a clear example of why being roommates with a sibling — especially one who’s toxic or irresponsible — can backfire in a big way. It may seem like a good idea at first, but when real life hits, one person often gets left holding the bag.

💡 As a property manager, situations like these show why strong lease agreements, proper documentation, and enforcing deadlines are crucial. Otherwise, personal family drama spills over into landlord liability and delayed rent income.
