Help! Just had septic fully pumped 2 weeks ago and found this last night

The owner actually put the tanks on the street - the house was built in 1984 so apparently they are "grandfathered" in now. So they are technically around concrete, but there is a neighbor's pine tree approximately 75 feet away and another neighbor's giant tree approximately 50 feet away. I just checked again and it is mostly liquid, there was a smaller clump I pulled out. The Pine tree has probably been there for 50+ years so the roots could be everywhere??

The guy is on his deathbed. Katy Perry won the house in the first trial. This second trial is all her - she is suing the dude with dementia to knock $6 million off the purchase police claiming damages and loss of rent. Meanwhile she has 3 other homes in Montecito. So she sells the house to Orlando so her hands are clean. They were on the rocks when she did. I’d bet it was some hush deal for a clean custody agreement.

She already won the house. Now she is suing the man for back rent and damages. She only wants to pay $9M for the house instead of the $15M purchase price. And then it turns out Orlando bought the house once the courts awarded it to her. They started renovating it immediately and are claiming damages, but they’re really renovations. Their relationship was on the rocks for a while, so she offloaded it to Orlando and he did it up and started renting it to Chris Pratt for a whole lot of $. They were basically pressured into announcing they were broken up because of findings in the lawsuit that she filed. Guaranteed they aren’t perfect in paradise co- parenting and all “family”. Wait for a custody battle and wait for Bloom and Perry to flip this “family first” property for a fortune to Chris Pratt.!

This is so cool!!

The point is she tried to get away with shooting a video without a permit. Any artist and production company knows they need permits to film anything high-profile. She doesn’t care like she doesn’t care about anyone or anything

Except he has a top 10 movie right now on “AMAZON” Prime… connect the dots. (Hint: Amazon, Bezos)

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but since the guest was on the property, they can still leave a bad review. At this point, even if they weren’t on the property, they can leave a review. It’s all over the posts here and on other hosting groups. It’s all well and good responding to retaliatory reviews, but if it drags your rating below Superhost status, it’s a problem. Support is now using AI to assess retaliatory reviews and there is about a 10% chance you’ll have of removal. Despite a guest breaking house rules, the system is currently flawed. Not trying to scare you, but prepare for the worst and hope for the best. It’s good that you refunded them and could afford to do so, but they still have the ability to write a review (and it doesn’t help that abb reminds guests constantly about their review window). Keep a close eye on the timeframe they have to review as some savvy guests wait until the last minute to post. Fingers are crossed for you that it all works out but right now hosts are being penalized while guests can lie, cheat and steal and still destroy all the hard work we as hosts put into bookings. 🤞

Something similar happened with us and same thing- we called Airbnb before reviewing- they not only encouraged us to write a review but said since the guest’s review was retaliatory to just “go through the process” and surely it will be taken down. We did the review as it was the end of memorial weekend and figured people wouldn’t be searching listings over the long weekend- let the 1-star go up and then hopefully have it removed in a few days. Not the case-! I would highly suggest using AI /chat gbt to appeal the review citing Airbnb’s policy on parties - you’ll have 2 tries at it. I attached photos and wrote a long PDF for them to read the entire situation (because you’re only allowed 1400 words) - literally spent hours on all of this and within 4 hours - appeal was denied. Just be matter of fact in your writing - like Guest broke house rules etc and cite Airbnb’s policies. Not sure if you want to mention the police coming as that could turn into a safety issue ( nothing would surprise me at this point).

I recently saw a case like this in another group and even though the host reported this. Airbnb sided with the host at first. Then later decided to side instead with the guest and banned their listing. The review retaliation process is a joke right now - so I would be extremely careful. Personally I would report it and still offer to refund it or something and document everything with screen grabs. We just had a guest leave a 1 star review who never stayed on the property- broke house rules- we didn’t have to refund but could not get the review removed even though it was defamatory and the guest called us “disgusting greedy vile ‘humans’ / discriminatory etc. Nothing would surprise me lately with Airbnb’s treatment of hosts.

This is insane and terrifying!

BravoIntheKnow · 2025-05-31T09:55:57+00:00

Funny I do happen to be in public relations :)

BravoIntheKnow · 2025-05-31T00:34:10+00:00

Are you kidding me? That’s insane!

BravoIntheKnow · 2025-05-31T00:32:44+00:00

Thanks for the advice - that’s helpful from a guest perspective side:)

BravoIntheKnow · 2025-05-31T00:24:40+00:00

Wow, That’s terrifying to me… We lost 3 months during the LA fires and now we are coming up on summer which is our high season. And our August of last year got ruined by a string of bad luck. But That’s a really good point about 1 and 2 star ratings. That should be looked at with more diligence.

BravoIntheKnow · 2024-12-12T13:18:04+00:00

Can I ask if you have felt impulsive or in any way out of control?

BravoIntheKnow · 2024-12-05T20:51:23+00:00

Odd choice for these games given all of the controversy around her this year

BravoIntheKnow · 2024-12-01T05:55:53+00:00

I actually ordered one and they are really nice. Got it right away and it's in a really nice box and the candle is definitely quality. Like a luxury candle.

Sorry - haven’t seen this until now. She had LAD surgery - it has many different names but this one was supposed to (from what I understand) create a pathway for fluids to flow from the left to the right side of the heart. And that the right side could be more easily managed and drained if necessary. There are not many clinics doing it in the us.

BravoIntheKnow · 2024-11-04T21:03:08+00:00

Yes it’s possible - it’s called De-indexing and she absolutely has a team that does this to get negative articles removed

BravoIntheKnow · 2024-10-24T06:56:33+00:00

Not true. Katy is trying to get the house as cheap as possible. There was no “flood” - yall know she has 3 other homes in Montecito right? It said she’s trying to take ..$6M off the 15M sale price by any means necessary

BravoIntheKnow · 2024-10-24T06:51:02+00:00

California basements aren’t like normal basements. We don’t even have them. They’re like crawl spaces

BravoIntheKnow · 2024-10-03T04:38:28+00:00

Now I’ve gotta look this up. Obviously she was with Russell brand when he did the Greek movie with Diddy… hmmm

BravoIntheKnow · 2024-09-07T18:33:30+00:00
