Columbus Ohio Eviction Notice

[Mitchell Krotz]

Hello All,

I have an issue for a friend. He took over a 2 rental properties that was already occupied.  One renter has been great, pays on time and has no problems.  The second he has been struggling to collect rent every month. The renter has paid late several times, and is now completely ignoring his phone call.  He is starting the eviction process and put the notice on the door.  I am trying to use his situation as a learning experience (along with helping him out gathering information). 

Has anyone had this situation in the certain location (Columbus Ohio) and knows the process.  Such as paper work, steps, can it be done online or does the paperwork and everything need to be handled in person... so on.

I am a rookie so please be kind! Any and all help will be appreciated!

THANKS!
