Evicting tenants due on 1st for breach of lease. Texted me they were moving on 7th then gave 4 different dates. Their friend told me they now live in another house but they left a lot of stuff and a week after the last move out date are still taking their time moving it out while leaving all utilitues on I'm paying. They wont answer phone and I dont know if they are finished or when I can go back in. If gone or almost gone like to avoid eviction costs but afraid to go in.

Post 24 hour notice of inspection on door. Take a picture of note on door.

24 hours later go in side. If less than $500 worth of stuff you can trash it and consider them gone.

I never ever put utilities in my name. I don't by a property that doesn't have separate meters .

I would very all this with your local Magistrate that handles evictions.
