Tenant wants out what do I do?

Gui Touma
Posted

I have a tenant that’s been with me for 2 yrs now and just signed a 3 yr extension back in June.

This is a retail unit in ft wayne in. When he Signed the extension I assured him we will be fixing some things in the building (nothing in writing). The store front windows have some cracks in them told him I would replace them.

Now that the end of the year is coming he is complaining about not passing his inspection for his permit (tattoo shop) due to the windows letting contamination in lol he’s been passing the last two years and I’ve never received any copy of inspection saying things needed to be fixed and he refuses to send me any.

So yesterday he starts texting me to start finding a new tenant he’s moving out on the first he can’t stay in this building anymore and so on.

I have reassured him that I am still fixing the windows when the funds are available.

I’m not sure how to deal with him I self manage my properties never had someone say there just going to up and leave. What actions can I take? Or how should I solve this problem? Thanks in advance and sorry if this is drug out not the greatest writer.

@Gui Touma  You promised him you'd replace the glass in the windows.  Call and get a quote and then find the money to get it done.
