what to do with tenant stuff

[Joel NA]

Hello all,

I just took over management of a property that has a deadbeat tenant in it. Lease ends in a couple of weeks. No rent for 3 months-- we're hoping that she moves out peacefully (she's wacko) and we can move on. If she doesn't, what are our options concerning stuff she leaves in the home?

Also, is it legal to keep deposit if she's three months behind?

I've been trying to get a hold of the sherriff's deputy that I've met through my dealings with this person just to make sure I'm doing everything legally. We haven't evicted because I just took over lease is almost up.

Thanks...
