Finding the perfect tenant
Let's be
clear, getting the perfect tenant or tenants is not an easy task. But of course
they exist and can be achieved. This is the first of the tips to avoid an encounter
with a delinquent tenant, is not to have it.
Ok, it is
clear that it is evident, but nowadays it is not so easy to find tenants not
already perfect, but normal , especially considering that the default figures
have grown in recent years.
If you do not
know how to get the perfect tenant , in this article we tell you how you can
search for it. Of course, we already anticipate that one of the keys to finding
this treasure is not so much knowing how to do it, but looking for it in the
right place.
Talking people understand, or not ...
One of the
ways that landlords have to ensure default on a tenant is the bond. In the
event that one or two months have passed without paying the monthly fee, we can
use this money in an emergency.
However,
once a few months have passed and in the event of a default situation during
this time, a defaulter can be declared "officially", at least for our
part.
Before
reaching this situation, it is normal and civil to speak with the tenants .
What do you need to know to kick out a
delinquent tenant?
If by chance
the tenant tells us that he is going through an unusual situation, such as he
has lost his job, that he has had a bad economic situation, we have two
options.
The first is
to wait a month to see if the situation clears and evolves positively, or the
second option is to take legal action if we do not see progress in one or two
months.
That is, we
can wait to see what happens or we can take the situation by the horns. It
depends on you. Of course, do not wait too long, since an eviction process can
take anywhere from 6 months to a year.
Obviously,
there are tenants who go through the lining the notices, the notifications and
that although we talk to them and say yes, yes, yes, what they really mean is
no, no, and no payment.
Given this,
all we can do is resolve the situation by filing an eviction lawsuit. In other
words, take the legal route to solve it.
