Evicted Tenant Filing Police Report?

Drew Smith
Posted

Tenant was evicted legally, filed for write of possession since tenant was still there, sheriffs office came out and removed the tenant. The property was completely full with all personal belonging. Vendor was scheduled a few days later to remove all items to property line. Called tenant and told them the day it was suppose to moved outside. Vendor said the tenant was there waiting on that day. A few days after the tenant called and said a lot of items we're missing and will be filing a police report and wants to know the names of all vendors who entered.

My questions are will the police really look into/ do anything about this since it was an eviction? Do we have to give the tenant the names of vendors or all people who we're at the unit giving estimates or doing the clean out? It's crazy that the tenant who owes thousands and got 90% of the items back (even after the sheriffs removed them) is complaining still and going to file a report.

Unfortunately, it's become more common for people to shirk their own responsibility, like paying rent, and then look to blame other folks for everything that happens to them.

Question: Why are you taking calls from an evicted ex-tenant? I would not engage with this ex-tenant.  Let them file what they will, and if there is an investigation at all, (doubtful IMHO) the authorities will request whatever information that's needed.  

Keep investing and moving forward!
