On paper, a lease seems like an airtight, simple agreement. The lessee either pays the rent on time and keeps the property in good condition or leaves. And if the tenant refuses to leave, the lessor has the right to evict the occupant. Simple, right? Wrong.
Due to eviction laws and other tenant rights, getting rid of a tenant who no longer pays rent is a murky, nightmarish process. The following is a story where simple lease agreements turn into veritable horror stories for the landlord.
One angry landlord reported a story where he leased an apartment to a tenant that stopped paying rent almost immediately. When he went to check up on the property, he became suspicious that the tenant was also stealing appliances from the apartment.
He promptly called the police who arrived and questioned the tenant. The tenant accused the landlord of trespassing and even said that she did not recognize the landlord. The police sided with the tenant and the landlord had to watch from across the street as the tenant took off with the property’s washing machine.
