A Noosa man who appeared on A Current Affair is now selling his property due to financial distress after two evicted rental tenants allegedly stole an estimated $100,000 worth of his furniture.

The evicted tenants have both been charged with aggravated stealing, an offence which carries a maximum penalty of 10-14 years jail in Queensland.

During their appearance at Noosa Magistrates’ Court, one of the former tenants asked the magistrate for a suppression order on his case, which was rejected.

The case was adjourned to allow the pair to seek legal aid representation and is now set down for a committal mention in April.

The property located at 33 Ward St, Tewantin overlooking the Noosa River was sold to Paul Garratt by Tom Offermann Real Estate on 11 November 2023 for $3,200,000.

The property is currently back on the market through Paul Rily of Dowling Neylon estate agents.

Situated on an 804sqm elevated corner block, the home has Noosa River views.

The home features a resort-style pool with a spa, built-in bar (beer taps included), under-fridge storage, pizza oven, and a covered dining area.
