But neither the tenant nor the landlord wants to evict. But if you don't know how to evict or don't know the laws on how to do them or you don't want to do them or you're not enough of an asshole to do them, then you should not be a landlord.

I went over there Thursday to fix something, her dad let me in and i tried to hand her the vacate letter but she didn't want to come out of her room and talk (i have it in text message) so i taped the letter on the inside of door and took a picture of it, hoping that is good enough. Anyways my question is, she hasn't payed for 2 months and i did not send notices through mail,, everything was by text messages but i do use turbo tenant where it shows she hasn't paid, do you think that is enough to win over the judge? And funny she is using the mold excuse you were talking about in your video.

      That's easy. Tenants should also screen Landlords to avoid a bad Landlord/Tenant relationship. Many of the same methods work in the other direction too: good communication, discussing important issues at the beginning of the lease, and understanding the terms of the lease. However, as my channel is focused on Landlords, my videos are focused on a Landlord perspective of this kind of business relationship.

    Can a person be evicted for confrontation with the property manager? I dispute and challenge him sometimes, and he always defaults to writing violations and bullying.
    He knows I suffer from mental issues, but he continues to push until I snap and verbally bombard him. He knows about ongoing issues and chooses to blame me.
    He gets his rent for 10 years straight and I keep my place clean.
    I only get angry when I get violations for things I don't do. He won't work with me or listen to me. He operates on heresay and I'm tired of him baiting me into violence.
    He loves to fearmonger and use eviction on anyone he doesn't like.

    Hello Mr. Ernie, my wife and I have a property where the tenant used fake names on the lease. Should we evict them like normal tenants just breaking the contract? Or should we go a different route like criminal trespass? I did a background check and one of them has a history of fraud.

    • @LandlordAttorney
      @LandlordAttorney  Год назад +1

      You can report the fraud to the police, but little is likely to result from that. However, in the State of Texas, if your lease states that misrepresentation in the application process is a default of the lease, you can issue a 3-day Notice to Vacate and begin the Eviction process on this basis. How are you certain, though, that this was a misrepresentation? Remember, the burden is on you to prove this at trial. Good luck!

    • @LandlordAttorney
      @LandlordAttorney  6 месяцев назад

      These are definite options. I always tell landlords that in the court's eyes, you can never give too much notice. The problem is not giving enough notice. The real key is when you can prove at least 1 valid method of notice delivery, as required by state law. If you can prove 3 valid methods and 3 additional methods, that's even better, and this strategy limits the ability of a tenant to claim they never received the notice, which happens often.

      Well, I certainly don't advocate this. In fact, a key part of good Landlording is proper maintenance of the rental property. The property itself is actually more valuable than the monthly rent, so it is counter productive for a Landlord to leave their rental property in substandard shape.

      I don't advocate wrongful Eviction. If someone is being evicted through NO fault on their own, that's not legal. However, if someone cannot afford to live on property that belongs to someone else for whatever reason but refuses to leave, that burden should not be carried by the Landlord, no matter how unfortunate for the tenant. If the tenant is without resources, there are funding sources, both government and private, to assist them, but this is not the responsibility of the landlord. That being said, my discussion has more to do with a tenant who simply picked a rental out of their price range or who mismanages money in such a way that timely payment of rent is not a priority.
