Print out the casenet page with the information about this daughter, type up a notice of lease violations and how to correct. Follow up. What is it you'd like them to do about it now? Just know that you know? Move? Get daughter out? What lease clause are they violating? --99.203.xx.xxx

And then do it. If they took the opportunity to tell you up-front, that's good, and weigh the information on its merits. If they stayed silent and gambled in the hopes you wouldn't actually do so-- I'd ding them double, once for the crime, and once for the lack of forthrightness regarding a direct question. --166.137.xxx.xx

I told her we can not deal with druge people convicted or not or at home or at parties. --97.91.xxx.xxx

Hire an EVICTION ATTORNEY and let him/her do their thing. You seem to want to dwell on making yourself miserable. --24.20.xxx.xxx

Eviction attorney here do not like to evict paying tenant because it is hard to do. We still had hundreds evictions during the years. --97.91.xxx.xxx

But, I realized my question may not be cover some of the problems we want to cover. I just want to learn and improve --97.91.xxx.xxx

You do or say the wrong thing just once or twice and you will be in for a world of hurt! --24.20.xxx.xxx

It doesn’t sound like it’s a matter of affordability anymore. It sounds like you can’t afford NOT to hire it out at this point. I say this with all due respect. --73.177.xxx.xx

JB, I found the crime record on the casenet, but she make excuses. If you know a better way to respond, let me know. My English is poor and that is why I ask question, but I know when to hire eviction attorney and I know what the eviction want from us many years ago. --97.91.xxx.xxx

We have about 15 eviction a year. --97.91.xxx.xxx

What is the lease clause she is violating? Read that and enforce that as it is written. It will be on the way lease she had when you purchased property if she hasn't signed your new lease at renewal --99.203.xx.xxx

15 evictions per year is concerning. --73.177.xxx.xx

Not if you have alot of property. Percent. --99.203.xx.xxx

My problem is my poor English. --97.91.xxx.xxx

Fifteen evictions a year seems like a lot but I suppose that depends on how many units you have. Someone suggested getting a property manager and that would probably be a good idea for you. You can shadow them and observe how they deal with these issues and should you go back to self managing again, you'll know more and will have had more time to work on your English. --209.122.xx.xxx

In some States, Like California, it is illegal to reject someone who has been convicted of a lessor crime. For murder or assault you are allowed to reject them. Butt if they were convicted of white collar crimes, petty theft or forgery -- a landlord should not reject on that alone. --47.156.xx.xx

I am worried about drug crime the most. It is hard to be found and hard to control. --97.91.xxx.xxx

Lots of people are landlords who come from other countries and although their English isn't the best, they're tough as nails as apartment complex managers. If you feel that you're learning and getting stronger, that's what counts. Best of luck. --67.170.xxx.xxx

I don't care about being PC. This has worked and I'll keep on using it. --73.16.xxx.x

TenanatWhipsper, I will put that in the application. I can not think a question to cover all situation and all crime myself. thanks. --97.91.xxx.xxx

Evictions are like accidents in the workplace, you don't want them to happen but you should be prepared for them and work to minimize them --199.247.xx.xx

While it is state specific, your tenant may be correct that you can’t evict for drugs if they are just charged but not convicted. That’s how it works in my courts.They are still “ innocent until proven guilty” and the eviction would not be viable without a conviction . I hope they do move out as they say they will. When you ask applicants about prior convictions you have to take it on a case by case basis now. Here, if an applicant has prior drug criminal history - it can’t be used against them if they have proof they are rehabilitated. That is a very small portion of the applicants. --174.199.xx.xx

Or if you owned a steakhouse and 10% of your steaks were overcooked. --199.247.xx.xx

CJ,where do you come from? As an immigrant from Northern Ireland,I think you’re doing alright as for getting better at English ,,take a course in English at the local High School Nights. Then you’ll do better than most! I wouldn’t worry too much about them taking drugs .Let the cops handle that , you just keep the water running and the electricity under control,......Charlie........ --32.214.xxx.xx

CJ, you say the bank thinks you’re doing fine, I’d keep an eye on them and not worry a bout the tenants,........Charlie....... ....... --32.214.xxx.xx

David, I like steaks well done or in some cases over done . Hardly ever offered one anymore , must be traveling in the wrong company?............Charlie...............darn???? --32.214.xxx.xx

In 20 years I have had ONE that went to full eviction. --66.128.xx.xxx
