Need help with tenant issue

[Zach Latham]

I have a property with two tenants on the contract. One tenant is not paying their half of the rent, therefore, leaving the other tenant to pay the full rent. My paying tenant wants the non paying tenant to move out, since she is not contributing to the rent anymore. However, the non paying tenant is not willing to cooperate. What is my best course of action to get this non paying tenant out of my rental?

Is the rent being paid on time?  Then do nothing.  This is her problem and not yours.  She should have gotten a better roommate.  

If you believe her story about the bad roommate and want to keep the good tenant, find out if the good tenant can qualify for the rent on her own.

In either case, evict them both and then sign a new lease either with only the good tenant, or the good tenant and her new roommate, or entirely different tenants.

Don't get involved with their drama.
