Tenant moving in a criminal released from prison with her in a 2-flat without notifying me
I have a tenant I inherited when I bought this 2-Flat in July 2013 in Cook County, Illinois. She has 3 kids and has been a good tenant so far. Timely rent, no damage, no excessive complaints. Police called me today and notified that a person released from prison is moving in this property I own, on this Friday with my tenant. She did not notify me nor seek approval to move in this person with her. I donot want this person in my property. I signed a "No Tresspass" clause with the Village so they will have authority to arrest any tresspasser on this property. Tomorrow, I will be putting "No Tresspassing" signs on this property. It is a month to month lease. I am also planning to give her a written warning that she cannot move in anybody who is not on the lease with her. I would actually want this tenant out ASAP in order to avoid any more problems with her in future. This person was convicted of large amount of dangerous drugs and spent a few years in prison.
Any advise will be appreciated.
