How
You Can Fix Urgent Landlord
Complaints Easily and Quickly PART 1
If
you are a landlord or property manager, it's only a matter of time you
have to face landlord complaints and problems caused by your tenants.
Whether it's a simple problem that can be solved with a 5 minute phone
call or total chaos that require court action, we will show you the
quickest and easiet way to settle them.
Your
Tenant is Forever Late When it Comes to Paying the Rent
This
is definitely one of the common type of landlord complaints but the
good news is that there are effective ways to work around it.
For the occassional offender, you should mail him a late rent notice to
remind him that the rent is overdue. If nothing happens, follow up with
a phone call and chase him for the rent.
To deal with tenants who simply refuse to pay up on time every month,
you will have to resort to the tough approach. Impose late
rent
charges and make sure he pays it no matter what new excuses he cooks
up.
You
can also take proactive steps to prevent late rent payments in the
first place. Before the rent is due every month, give them a reminder
call in advance and arrange a meeting place so that you can personally
collect the rent.

Your
Tenant Refuses or Simply Cannot Afford to Pay You Rent
Now
we have a bigger headache - No rent means no income for you. If you
have tried every possible means and there is just no way for you to
squeeze the rent money from your tenant, then it's time for you to take
action to chase him away while reclaiming the rent.
Before you
can evict anyone, you are required by law to give your tenant a written notice to quit.
This notice gives him a last chance to fork out up the rent or face
eviction.
If
the time limit granted in the notice to quit expires and you are still
don't get the rent, then it's time to get a unlawful detainer against
the tenant. This will set up a court date for your eviction lawsuit.
Tenants who refuse
to pay up can be a nightmare. Be sure to keep proper records of their
payments and if possible proof of the existing condition of your
property. This will empower you with solid evidence in court in case
they try to damage your property on purpose or file counter claims.
Your
Tenant is Being a Complete Nightmare to Their Neighbours
Some
tenants have nasty habits like blasting music late at night or getting
into frequent squabbles. If left unchecked, they may end
up harassing their neighbours or other tenants living on your property.
As always, you should try calling your tenant first and request that
they cut down on their noise levels especially at night.
If
this fails, it is then recommended that you ask the neighbours and
other tenants who are facing the problems to contact the police
directly and file a report. If they refuse to contact the police, you
should at least ask them to give you a written record of their
complaints.
This way you will have your evidence and
witnesses handy if you are ever forced to file a lawsuit to evict these
troublesome tenants from your property.
