I should add that the Marshall can do the lockout 5 business days after the court date, which translates to 7 days because of weekends. So, potentially in AZ the lockout can occur on the 19th of the month (5 + 7 + 7).
Any Pigg landlords know what the time period is in CA?
A higher security deposit has helped me get tenants out without ever having to do an eviction. Not to say it can always prevent it. I also always tell tenants in the final steps of screening that I don’t require any extended notice for them and I will prorate rent back if they want to leave and that I will process their deposit refund within days of their leaving, giving me a written release, and giving me the keys.
Twice I have had tenants that I wanted out, both times with people living there not on the rental contract. I gave them the chance to give notice on their terms, prorated rent back and gave them the security deposit back very quickly, minus legally and ethically billable items. They were motivated for all this by the security deposit and the rebate of prorated rent.
I think psychologically it works well on tenants if they know they can leave when they want to with more money.
