How to do an Eviction
Hello Every,
I am currently in the process of buying a property and was told by the selling agent that the current tenant has violated their current lease by having pets and not putting down a deposit. They said they will start the process of giving them a 30 day notice but I would like to know the process of an eviction or if there are good eviction professions in the Dayton Ohio area that I could reach out to to help me out with this properly as this will be my first eviction.

Rather than manage the eviction yourself, you could consider making eviction a term of closing your deal. In other words, escrow doesn't close until the current owner has completed the eviction process and the tenant is gone. You just really don't want to take this on if you can avoid it because you will automatically be in the hole with not only a non-paying tenant but the out of pocket costs of the eviction, which can be substantial. I would never take on someone else's tenant problem. It's rarely worth it unless you are just getting some kind of phenomenal deal.
