Tenant is doing drugs in apartment
One of my tenants admits to doing drugs in the apartment, and states that he has no problem with it. He agrees to pay for a broken window and carpet replacement due to wax burn marks on the carpet. Should I evict him immediately, or should I wait for payment?
His lease expires in June, and since I inherited him from the previous owner, there is no clause about drug usage I the apartments. What legal grounds do I have?
Thank you so much for any advice!
