I think that is best that tenants sign a contract when moving in to your rental houses. That should include the consequences of not paying rent for a period of time. Then when they fail, you can easily sue them because they signed a contract.

You would be surprised that if you take things lightly, those tenants would end up not paying at all. I would advise taking the legal route handing over the property to professional to manage.

The best way to handle tenants in your house is to have strict rules and regulations that govern the entire compound. Defaulting tenants should be giving quit notice.

Definitely, they should not be allowed to spoil your apartment as it is your major investment and no attempt to run you Into losses should be tolerated at all.

The best way to handle a default tenant is to give such tenant quit notice if he or she cannot be able to pay your rent and also you can take the tenant to court.

The best way to handle such tenants is to operate within the basis of the law and serve them a quit notice through your attorney. Once this is done, you won't be held liable for throwing them out once the quit notice has elapsed.

Although this is a good suggestion but cannot be entirely effective sometimes as the legal system in the country is porous now and with a little bribe one can get away with things like that.

Things like this are supposed to be known to property owners, but it seems there are some of the who are still ignorant and this makes them run into losses always.

This is quite common and it's unfortunate too but that why it's better to enter an agreement prior that if you fail to meet up this and this would happen so they know already

The thing is that I have a very soft heart and if I happened to become a landlord later in life I don't think that I will be that harsh on my tenant because I cannot hurt a fly and the only way to which I think I can be able to solve the problem of defaulting tenants is by making sure that the tenant that are coming to rent my house I responsible people in the society.

The best thing to do as a landlord when you have a default in tenant is to let him off your apartment because he will be a big challenge to you every time it comes to payment of rent.

I completely agree with you but I do not allow my tenants to get to a stage where by the only option that I will have is to throw them out of my house rather what I do is to ensure that I only admit good and well-behaved tenant into my house.

My parents have an estate where people Lodge in and are expected to remit some money yearly, but so many of the tenants are not willing to pay even after constant reminder. What is the best way to handle such individuals?

I think the best way to handle this kind of a situation,is to get a good lawyer that would serve them quick notice so with that they will all be willing to pay or move out of the house I guess.

Handling a defaulting tenant might be difficult at times but you need to thread with caution, some of the tenants just loves owing money and not paying , thats why you need a good lawyer.

If they are overstaying in your property then they are to pay for the extra time they have stayed and I think the best way for you to handle such people is to arrest them with the police,with this they will understand that you are doing business and you are not there to tolerate nonsense.

Dealing with defaulting tenants, that fails to pay house rent on time, or take responsibilities assigned to him or her isn't new. That's why we hand them.over to attorney to deal with them when they default.

Its very difficult to handle such tenant because some are facing such individual them don't like paying their rent when the time come, but the best way is to take them to Court.

Yes, with a good lawyer who knows his job, it is really easy to deal with such tenants and they would release every penny they owe you.

If your tenants are not meeting your demands and are disobeying the rules and regulation of the compound and you have warned them before and they refused then you should probably give them a quit notice.

I learned that the property owner needs to serve a quit notice a month or two beforehand so that the tenant do not come up with excuses like it's too urgent.

Hmm... They will have to get a good lawyer who is a very good lawyer and they can report there matter to court because if care is not take they will keep living in the estate without paying.
