If you have a lease with the tenant then no cause they paid the rent but you are allowed to impose a late fee. You can start eviction papers again if they go late but then all they have to do is pay the rent and they are fine, what I would sugeest is the next time they are late is you file for eviction go to court and ask the judge to ammend the lease to state if tennant is late again that they will freely leave.

Assuming your evicting the non-paying tenants through the court system! When you have finished the eviction process, there is a default judgement recorded in your county. The credit reporting agencies obtain this information, at least once a week, and thus it appears on their credit report, as an unlawful detainer action. If you ever see this on a prospective tenants report....don't even consider renting to this person, as he did not value himself enough, and took the risk of subjecting his credit report so negatively....It also shows that this person coct the landlord allot of hassels, and costs of legally evicting this person through the court system....and to make matters worse they probably damaged and left your property a mess on their way out.

Sounds shady to me.  Definately take them to court.  I hope you have proof, though.  like a receipt from the post office, a bank statement showing your cancelled rent check, or something.  If you can prove that you sent it on time, and the post office lost it, i don't know if you are responsible or not.  Let a judge decide.  Then move if you aren't in a lease.

Go to the RRA... Renters Rights Association. They will handle it! They eat that kinda crap up... I know cuz I have been an apartment manager b4 and the owners where total asses... there was so many things i couldnt do after the tentants were promised things by the owners then went back on em... good luck

You have already served her with a 30-day to pay rent or quit and she opted to quit by voluntarily leaving the property. Instead of foreceable removal (eviction) she decided to leave of her own accord.\n\nThe next step for you is to file a money judgement agst her for the back rent. The court whill serve her with notice to appear and if your case has merit, judgment will be awarded in your favor whether or not she bothers to appear so long as service notice was good. You still need to try and locate her forwarding address or other address she can be raeched as the process server will need it for service to be completed.

Once the case is dismissed, they cannot sue you again.  You should have a copy of your dismissal of the first case and then contact  your local agency that work with landlords and tenants.    They are very helpful and will support you in dealing with this matter.   Unless the former landlord is trying to sue you for something else.   No matter you need to appeal to your Landlord and Tenants Organization, they are in all the large cities.

Go to the website for the state that you live in to find out answers.  Every state gives landlords (and tenants) certain rights.  You must follow the laws when evicting.  Most often you must give written notice, which is usually followed by court action, then eviction.

Go to City Hall and tell them your situation. Sometimes your local Chamber of Commerce can help. \n\nMy Parents had a renter who signed an agreement - but in your case (i don't know the technical term) there is a presumption of verbal contract.\n\nThe Renter would have to prove he did pay the rent with signed receipts.  Its your property, and anybody can be evicted for any number of reasons - especially if the rent is not paid.\n\nMy Parents went to City Hall - cant recall who they talked to - but signed an Eviction Form which the police delivered to the renter. The Police Department also enforced the eviction. (there may or may not be a small fee involved but its not much if any)\n\nIf this, or anyone elses answer is better.., is helpful be sure to click the Best Answer option for that person. (for anybody with a best answer). Too many people are asking questions and never give the best answer any credit at all.\n\nGood luck - I know how hard that situation must be.  DO NOT LISTEN TO SOB STORIES IF and only IF you have already been put off two or more times after trying to work with them.\n\nDO NOT GET THEM TO SIGN A RETRO DATED AGREEMENT FORM!  I'm no expert but Im pretty sure thats a bit underhanded if not illegal. Unless the Police or City Hall suggests it - DONT.

If you don't pay the rent within the time period then the landlord has the right file a lawsuit for eviction.  If you have what you think is a valid reason for not paying rent then send the landlord a certified letter giving your reason.  Then prepare to tell a judge when the landlord files the lawsuit for eviction.

don't let them move in until you get the deposit\n\nif you already let them in, well, shame on you!  It will be that much harder to get them out.\n\nIf they don't pay you, start the proceedings for eviction for breach of contract - they haven't paid a deposit and they have a pet - that is a breach

Brian, \n\nMy apologies up front for not answering *your* question, I just felt the need to thank you so very much for your help and input on my rent/eviction/decision. I tried to find the same information you did (although I must say you do seem extremely knowledgeable) and came up empty handed. I so greatly appreciate your help. You have sincerely raised my faith in my fellow man almost back to where it was many moons and a wife ago. I hope great(-er) things come your way and I honestly am so thankful for your help.\nWith great respect,\nRobert

I don't believe he can legally do that without a court order.  My step-father owns a couple of rental properties.  And when someone is behind on their rent even if they are really behind he has to go through all this legal garbage before he can do anything.  And even with a court order for their eviction then he has to get a sheriff to remove them from the apartment if they still aren't moved out by the date that the judge orders them too.  The whole process is long, expensive, and stressful for the landlord.  That is probably why that person's landlord is just trying to get them out by boarding up the place.  They should call the police and have them deal with it.  Good luck to your friend.

If they are listed as a tenant on the lease with the landlord then the landlord will have to have them evicted.  If they are not listed on the lease then you can file the eviction.  If you are in the US then go to http://realestate.findlaw.com/landlord to read about evictions in general and then click on the Resources link to get the details for your state.  Basically you will have to give them at least 30 days notice and if they still haven't left by that date you will have to file a lawsuit for eviction in the county court.

I give a 30 day notice to quit the property first.  You have 30 days to pay the rent or vacate. If I have the feeling that you will do a midnight express, I file the eviction paperwork at the same time.  Then the court sets a date usually 30 days later, unless they are backed up.  Then we go to court, if you don't show I win by default.  Marshalls come and post notice to the door of the rental advising that the occupants have been evicted and have 10 days to vacate the premisis.  At that time, I file a judgement against you for the unpaid rent and a garnishment of your wages in the amount you owe.  After 10 days, I show up with a locksmith and 2 marshalls, change the locks and have the marshalls inspect the unit.  I take possession of the unit and anything in it.\n\nThus, you have about 40 days from the time you are served notice.

I used to be a property manager and I too would sent out 3 day notices, but until a court has released eviction papers, they can't seize your property, you should be calling them up and letting them know when you plan to pay.  This is normally accepted so long as it's not happening constantly.  Good luck.
