One horror story could be unexpected structural issues in a house they were renovating. For example, finding major water damage in the walls that was hidden. This not only increased the cost but also delayed the renovation schedule.
Well, perhaps the most terrifying was when they were renovating an old house and found evidence of a previous infestation that had caused extensive damage to the foundation. This was a nightmare because it meant they had to completely re - think their renovation plans and find ways to fix the foundation first, which was a huge and unplanned expense.
One popular type is where the brothers help a young couple renovate a historical home in a small town. In these stories, there are often heartwarming moments between the characters and the brothers. The details of the renovation process are described vividly, like choosing the right period - appropriate wallpaper or restoring old wooden floors.
Another theme is the relationship between the brothers. There are fanfics that explore their bond in more depth, perhaps during a time of conflict on the show or how they support each other through personal difficulties.

There was a case where the property management didn't maintain the common areas. The hallways were dirty, the lights were out in some areas, and the elevators were constantly breaking down. They kept saying they were short - staffed but did nothing to improve the situation. Tenants were unhappy and some even considered moving out.
One horror story is about a tenant who found out the apartment was infested with cockroaches after moving in. The landlord refused to take any action at first. Another is a renter who discovered mold growing all over the bathroom walls due to a leak that the landlord had ignored for months. And there was a case where a tenant was constantly harassed by the upstairs neighbor, and the landlord did nothing to resolve the situation.
Disputes over access to shared driveways along the property line can also be horror stories. One neighbor may block the driveway or claim exclusive use. There was a situation where two neighbors had a shared driveway. One of them parked their large RV on it for months, preventing the other from using it properly. This led to arguments, calls to the police, and ultimately a court case to determine the rights of access.
Another theme could be the exploration of their identities within the context of the show. Since they are in a gay relationship in the fanfic, it could touch on how they deal with acceptance from family, friends, and the public. This can include scenes of coming out and the reactions of those around them. Also, some fanfics may have themes related to home renovation as it is an important part of the 'property brothers' concept, but with a gay - themed twist, like renovating a home together as a couple.
