Lease termination Fail
Oct 15, I signed a lease with a tenant after screening her through transunion's smart move and calling all references.
The tenant paid prorated rent for October and a full months rent deposit.
Before November 1st came around the tenant lost her job and could not pay November's rent.
I signed a mutual lease termination with the tenant, letting her out of the lease, as long as she forfeited her deposit and moved out by the 1st of December.
It's now the 2nd and the tenant has not vacated per our agreement.
Since I have the signed lease termination, do I still have to evict to regain possession?
Oh yeah, and I have already leased the space to someone else.
