My tenant may be skipping town.

Libo L.
Posted

Hi, fellow landlords.

What options do I have if I sense my tenants are skipping town for "a good job" in another state without paying the current month's rent and with several more months left on the lease? 

I though I did the right things at the time of lease-signing, including credit and background check, and collecting deposit. 

How can I file claims to credit bureau and the popular rental sites such as Cozy and Zillow so my tenants' future job and tenancy prospect may be affected?  That might be enough to deter my tenants from skipping town if I could convincingly say to them that their prospects could be affected. 

Thanks,

Libo
