Did they sign a lease? If so Post up a copy. Hope you got a healthy security deposit.

[billy69mach]

I would call the police dept and then tomorrow talk to a lawyer about it...

I rented my house out and the guy who rented it sub rented it without me knowing. I called the police because they had 8-10 people staying there with a king size mattress in the living room. The police told me if they had one piece of mail in their name it could take up to 90days to get them out.

Aint that a bunch of shit! Everything to screw the owner... Whats this world comin to?

If you want to play it safe you need to do a regular eviction with the courts. Post the notice on the exterior doors of the residence and mail one to them. If they used a relative as a reference mail one to them as well...addressed to your renters of course. Also a $350 deposit seems low. When our family was renting houses we would get at least three months for the deposit. Renters can destroy so much in a house that a one month deposit can not even begin to cover.

Good luck!

90 days to evict through the courts once filed.

No need for a lawyer. File with the courthouse, and wait for the trial. 9.9 of 10 they never show. 3 days later they are out. If not, the Police can and will come and escort them out. It will cost you less than $100 in fees and less than a month too.

Good luck! My father-in-law was been renting house for over 20yrs and has the eviction down to a science. I can have him call you if you'd like. PM your number.

So true!

I'm going through this now, but I didn't have a deposit. Guess that's what I get, for renting to a relative! At least they are out now, just need to start getting it presentable.

Good Luck, bro!

[billy69mach]

they aint getting any mail they have not been their . i guess i have to quiet feeling sorry for people thats why i charged only $ 350 dep.

I have some DEAD beats next to me now. I am helping with the eviction. Fucking low life people.

It does suck when you try to help people and they screw you over like this. When we had good renters who took care of the property we would always work with them if an issue came up. I would go down to the court house first thing tomorrow and start the process.

Glad he could help. I know he has gone down that road many many times.

Good luck with it man!

If they want to put up a fight it can be miserable to get them out. A buddy of mine bought a house to fix up and didn't do anything with it for 6 months. Some people moved into it and put the electric in their name. It took him over 6 months to kick them out of the house and the judge ordered he had to rent it to them. They lived in the house for a year and 90 days without paying a single dime.

these pieces of trash didnt put the nothing in their name they turned them all on ileagly gas water and electric so they are no utilitys on in the house. so good luck living in their.

[black90lx]

I can help get them out. Lol

[black90lx]

I can help get them out. Lol. I literally live right around the corner so I can help with whatever needs done.

[INSANEBA]

This is exactly what has me nervous about renting my house trailer out, allthough the locals are pretty respectful twoards me around here...

[04 Venom]

This is why I don't have the stomach to be a landlord.

[Black92LX]

NO YOU CAN NOT LOCK THEM OUT!!! You can be fined big time for that and even end up in jail.

Go through the basic eviction process. Here there are 3 time periods based upon the problem. Here you would qualify for the 10 day eviction.
Should cost under $50.
Just document all the lease infractions, also the fact they are no longer their and what they are costing you by the things they damaged. Keep security deposit and file in small claims court (not that you will get anything but it will help other landlords out if they have a judgement against them).

[billy69mach]

its crazy i cant lock them out but they changed the doornobs and TRIED to lock me out. their 3 day notice ends in the morning wifes going up to the city building in the morning to set them up a court day i think it will be $100 well spent

[Mista Bone]

Give Dedpedal some gas money and money to stop at White Castles. NO one will live there......although he might peel the paint as well.

[racingrick]

You might be in some trouble for getting rid of their dogs...

[black90lx]

How? They moved out and left the dogs there with no food,heat or water?

[billy69mach]

how am i going to get in trouble middletown police dep. removed the dogs i didnt. 2 pit bulls 1 was loose in basment 1 pit tied to a metal post with a 6" leash it couldnt move and a cain corso tied up to the main water line that comes in the basement with the biggest log chain i ever saw. no food water no tags no insurance on the pits.:screwy:

[racingrick]

How soon are you going to rent it out again?

[billy69mach]

i think i found a good guy to rent it to already. i got to get a plumber out to fix water. know i got to get a permit and everything because of these pieses of trash. i dont feel they deserve any rites. in my eyes their nothing but thiefs no diferant than going to wallmart and stealing

[black90lx]
