What to do if tenant left before the physical eviction?
Hi,
I am wondering what happens if the tenant left the property before the eviction actual taking place?
For example, if the writ of possession has been filed and the sheriff office said they would come out on Friday. But on Monday, it seems the tenant already left and property is empty. What are the things I can do?
A: enter the property, re-key and get ready to rent again.
B: call sheriff told them the tenant already left, no need to come out. Because if they come out, I have to hire a crew to stand-by or move out stuff.
C: Still have to hire a crew, wait the sheriff officer come out on Friday and can not re-key the property until the officer say "ok, now it is yours."
Of course in my lease, it has the abandonment definition section.
Thanks.
