When a woman found the perfect place to rent, she was ecstatic, and for over two decades, she lived in the home that she loved. Then, her landlord passed away, changing her life as she knew it.
Jane Sayner, an elderly woman in her 70’s, once dreamed of finding a home with a garden in Melbourne, Australia. When she was 51, that dream came true while she was hunting for a house to rent. That’s when she spotted a two-bedroom unit with a garden in St Albans, a suburb just north-west of Melbourne. It looked just perfect for her. Thankfully, she was approved and began renting the home from a man named John Perrett.
For the next 22 years, Jane worked hard to make ends meet. She would pay her landlord $200 a week, always on time and often in cash, just like John had asked, according to A Current Affair.
