This Tenant Who’s Not A Tenant Needs to be Evicted!

[Kyle Baron]

Greetings fellow investors!

Entertain a thought and tell me what you think about a situation if you could please..... (Asking for a friend)

A friend of mine has the most destructive, irresponsible, and non-paying tenant that you could imagine. All of the bad stuff - Not abiding by any rules, smoking in the house, not paying rent, leaving totaled vehicles in the driveway for weeks on end, allowing pets to damage the property, incurring excessive utility bills without compensating for them, all of that good stuff. This person needs to be EVICTED,

But here’s the fun part,

This person is not legally a tenant, but just a sibling of my friend..... There was never any kind of lease signed.

What can be done? I’m trying to get creative - This would be a stretch (but an example of how far we’d be willing to go), but what if the owner of the house sold the house to me - Does changing ownership of a property allow for the new owner (Me) to require all residents (Person) to sign a new lease? Would I then have the option to sign them, or kick them out?

P.S.: The house is owned by Mom, and Friend is ‘running’ the household while Mom is away, and Person is Friend’s sibling - The horrendous ‘Tenant’

Thanks so much in advance! Helping other people is a huge part of why I decided to study & invest in Real Estate, if I can help my Friend it would mean a lot!
