8Little did landlords, Jeff and Maureen Fortner, know the bizarre world they were entering when they purchased their first rental house thirty-five years ago. Suffering under the delusion that all tenants pay their rent on time and take care of the places they live in, the Fortner's grew more and more astonished at the types of circumstances they would encounter with their tenants. With episodes spanning simple fixes to major overhauls, their experiences will take you on a journey from motherhood to meteorites, dollhouses to death, treasures to trash, and justice to jailbirds. Being a landlord is not for the faint of heart as it stretches compassion to the breaking point. Mark Twain once said, "The only difference between reality and fiction is that fiction needs to be credible." In these pages, you will find these true and factual accounts are stranger than fiction.
