Tenant changing locks

[Karen Jackson]

Hey BP

I have a tenant that took it upon herself to changes the locks to my property. She’s been unresponsive, I’ve called, texted, mailed went up to the property and still unresponsive. She is in violation of her lease by doing this which I’ve told her before. Her lease is up in October and I will be giving her a 30day notice.

What can or should I do in the interim?

This is taking place in the stare of CT.

I would send her a certified letter saying you are doing an inspection and give her 24 hours notice. Then I would show up with a locksmith and change the locks. Your lease should have some language about that .
