An English Real Estate Agency has come up with a creative way to ‘encourage’ renter’s to cough up their rent money when they fall behind on their payments. In an effort to embarrass tenants into paying their rent, Sutton Estates has placed signs which read ‘Rent dodger lives here’ outside two of the rental properties they manage. This idea is a winner! There’s nothing like a public shaming to force people into being more responsible.  Neil Heffey, a partner in the company, said he was tired of being avoided by those who refused to pay for their living accommodation, provided by or through his company.
‘They can avoid us, but not their neighbours. Now, every time they walk in and out of their door, the neighbours will be laughing at them’ said Mr Heffey, who also insisted that genuine cases of hardship would not be targeted.
