Eviction from rental property

Hello Folks,

I need to evict a tenant for not paying rent for 4 months. I am looking for advice from someone who have gone though eviction.  I have been managing property myself. 

Should I hire a lawyer or find a property management company to handle eviction. 

Any suggestion is much appreciated. 


Thanks.

    Would hire an eviction attorney yesterday.

    If you're a DIY landlord and haven't started the process yet after 4 months, you are way behind the curve already. Cannot afford any mistakes on the procedural stuff of evictions.

    Would contact a PM but not for the eviction. For when the house is vacated, cleaned up, and rent ready. Have them on standby to step in and get the process going to rent it properly.
