Is it forceful eviction?
Greetings
I'm making this thread because I have a tenant that has moved out of the home and put everything on the street their-self but she doesn't want to give me the keys until the 15th. The home is empty and the lights and water are off. Can I go in and clean the home and show it or do i need to do a eviction process since she doesn't want to give me the keys right away ? Because if she is out of the home can I just change the locks. She hasn't paid for the past two months. I was trying to give her enough time to pay or move.
