Question About Landlord/Tenant Transition On New Acquisition

[Tim Soto]

Hello All, I have a question about how you would approach the transitioning of tenants on a new acquisition. I just acquired a multifamily property, and was notified that a tenant has about four or five dogs living with them. The previous owner was hands off and had mismanaged the property, which is why there's no tenant accountability. I prefer not to allow pets, let alone more than one. Seeing as this is the first time I've been in this particular situation, I was wondering if anyone has experienced a tenant having more than the allowable number of pets, and if so, how you dealt with it. I would love to hear and appreciate your feedback and insights on this situation. Thanks!
