Urgent, Need Help!!
Hi here is a big lesson learned myself: my tenant has been paying rent on time so I didn't pay close attention. Until last month, we deposited the check and after a month, we got the bank statement saying the check is bounced! So I contacted them and they're saying they can't pay the current month rent either. So there goes my over $2000 rent!
Now we've served the 3 day notice yesterday and will wait till next thursday to evict them. My question is:
1. during this time, can I start marketing the house? or do I have to wait till next thursday?
2. How do we go about collecting their back payment? Do we need to get their work phone no. correct before they leave? what if they don't give it to me? how do we garnish their wages?
Thanks!
Can they give you partial payment now? I would ask for a work phone number. Maybe follow them to work one day and see where they work if you don't know. You might be able to put a lien on their car if they own one. I would check with the court house to see what your options are.
Good Luck!
