Eviction = Shooting

By
Real Estate Agent with Fathom Realty

As a reminder of how dangerous things can be, two maintenance workers at Virginia Beach Apartment complex were shot dead and three more were wounded.  The details are still murky but it was supposed to be a pre-move inspection prior to the tenant being evicted.  The tenant opened the door naked and workers asked him to get dressed and they would be back in an hour.  When they came back, the man opened the door with two different weapons and opened fire.  He shot two workers dead and left three wounded before he went inside and shot himself dead.

Oh, my goodness! This is so unfortunate. We as real estate agents should be careful, too. I know there are some agents who handle foreclosures for banks and are tasked with giving "cash for keys" to some individuals losing their homes. I could easily see someone being upset and taking out their frustrations on the messenger.

It is so sad and scarey to hear of stories such as this.  I wish there was a way it could have been avoided.

That is so sad to hear. You just never know what can happen.   I wonder if they suspected anything the first time they came by.

I guess he didn't want to move. How do people rationalize acts such as this?

Another reason why real estate can be unsafe.  Those poor families of the workers who were just doing their job.

That is surreal and a reminder to us all that it is common today for a lot of people to resolve every issue with a gun,

My husband works with someone that lives there.  The violence is getting to close to home.
