I went through my 1st Eviction

I spent $1200 on legal fees, and lost 40 days rent. The rental was not pretty when they left, but I can't say it will cost more than $2000 to bring the rental back to the condition I need. 

The renter left at the end of the lease and never gave me the keys. They sub leased my property (on move out day) to a squatter, "unknown person".

I consider myself lucky. 

What really worries me is this 83 million eviction records. In the eviction database.
