    esmith… if the tenant is smart, they won’t allow the eviction to go “uncontested”. In that event, the eviction will cost the landlord/owner a lot more than $499, that would be upfront money before any back rent is ever collected.

    You’re smart enough to know the $499 price advertised on that lawyer’s website is a sales tactic.

    Lawyers don’t work for free, you should know better than that.

    It is very easy, and takes very little time to evict a tenant due to non payment of rent. It goes on your credit and you are blacklisted from renting. My mom just evicted a tenant in December ’05, and the judge awarded her the back rent from them, before they moved out, as a condition of letting them stay. She made a mistake of calling the last month rent a security deposit. So she did have to go after him for some money, which the sheriff’s department had deducted from his pay. He wrecked the place, but, my husband and I fixed it up,( that’s when we rented our place out and moved in. We sold in May of ’07, now we are looking to buy when the time and place is right.) But he can’t buy crap and good luck renting with that on you credit. People used to milk the system because of bancruptcy but, bancruptcy can’t help you anymore either because of the new laws.

    He did contest it and it was worth whatever she paid and she was awarded all her costs.

    Although I know that they are two separate issues, I personally don’t see anything wrong with a tenant not paying rent when the landlord is not paying the mortgage. Once the NOD is filed, the landlord has exhausted all his funds and is practically gone.

    patiently, I agree. This is exactly the position I took and as a result, I was called a squatter by one of the bitter, sanctimonious, hypocritical JERKS on this site.

    In any event, thanks for setting the record straight on how costly the eviction process is and the fact that it’s not always easy to get rid of a tenant.

    P.S. Little lady, the ease of evicting someone is situation dependent, and if the tenant fights back, it’s going to cost the landlord/owner.

    It was very easy and took a short period of time.

    Those cost can be recovered, though I know it doesn’t always work out as well for some. The man who rented from my mom had a good job a 4 mouths to feed, he couldn’t quit his job. Though I have no idea why he would do to my mom what he did knowing that. He ruined his situation for years to come and now that houses have come down, his chance to own.

    It doesn’t make sense to me to risk losing your opportunity to buy a home over the owner’s foreclosure.

    At least wait until you KNOW he is down to his last 30 days or so. If he is going to lose his house in 30 days you can be sure he’s not comming after you. But if he has 6-8 months I wouldn’t risk it. Your rent is free money. If it were me, I’d sue you.

    P.S. I am just expressing my opinion, I don’t think of anyone as being “a squatter”. Just that I don’t think it is a good idea……….
