Tree fell on rental - tenants don't want to move out
A tree fell on one of my rental properties yesterday (one story home). The tree has caused extensive damage; beams are coming down through the ceiling, the AC is leaking, duct work is coming through the ceiling, roof is damaged, etc. The home is 2,300 square feet and has an addition on the back that was not touched. The renters do not want to move out because they don't have anywhere to go. I am not comfortable with them staying in the home, even if they stay in the addition part of the home and don't go in the damaged part. I hate to force them out, but don't want anyone's lives to be in danger. What should I do?
