He rented a room from me on a 1 year tenancy agreement in a condo in Cheras. Instead of 2 months deposit + 1 month advance rent, he negotiated with me for 1 month deposit + 1 month advance rent. Anyway, just after one month of stay, when I asked for the monthly rent, he said that he has family matters in Melaka and gave excuses that he hasn't gone back to Melaka for quite some time so he can't continue with his stay and tenancy agreement of 1 year.
If a tenant insists on leaving, it's hard to force him to stay and keep to the tenancy agreement. Anyway, he left but he didn't meet me one on one to do a proper handover. He did not leave cleanly. He left a few items in the room including his two dirty pillows, bedsheet and two pieces of clothes. I had to discard all away. Also, for some reason, the room didn't smell good but I am not sure whether it was body odour or some other source of smell.
Anyway, please beware of this Muhammad Faiq Bin Mohd Ramli. His phone number is 011-26609952 and his IC number is 981120-04-5029 and he is from Sempang Ampat in Alor Gajah, Melaka. If you ever encounter him, I don't think you should rent a room or house to him. Or at least make sure that you charge him a 3-month deposit, besides the advance rent. Some tenants can be more trouble than worthwhile.
