How would Lord Kevin go about applying for rental property?

Post by Landwaster »

Ok Kevin Landwaster could probably go about getting first and last together easily enough (us Aussies know that as Bond and a month's rent), but other than that, he wouldn't be a terribly good prospect if you were a real estate agent renting out a flat or apartment.

His references would be stuffed. Who would say on his behalf "yeah, he'll be fine, he looks after his home wherever he is".

So, how could we tidy up his application?

He wouldn't have any pets with him, or children, so that's a start.
He certainly would have enough dosh to pay for his rent, no worries there.
Noise at night? Parties? I think he'd be a bit introverted at this stage.

Is there any chance that he could fool an agent into believing that the Land "was like that when he got there", Or that he "reported faults but no-one ever came around to look at them"?

He could push a line of being older now, more mature, past is past and he's turned over a new leaf. He'd want to let that forehead wound clear up before turning up for an interview, as it might look like he's a bit of wild boy.

Can anyone else think of some ideas to help him out? I mean, surely he's learnt his lesson, he must deserve some compassion by now.

Actually, Kevin DID have a time share. It was a nice quiet place where he could go out on a boat and fish. Very private, and very secluded. It was family property, first used by Damelon (who built a special door to the property to keep out the riff-raff).

Kevin doesn't strike me as the kind of fellow who would rent in the first place. I suspect that he would at least purchase a condo, but most likely a house in a nice suburban neighborhood. What I would worry about is what the homeowners association would do once they discovered his particular...er...proclivities. The nosy old woman who lives across the street would be eternally peering out from behind her blinds keeping a vigil against Kevin’s odd comings and goings.

Perhaps the guys in the movie Biodome got their ideas from watching Kevin look after the Land.
