Tenant Death - what are my rights?

[Adam Hurst]

I had a tenant die in my property from alcoholism. He had 11 months left on his lease. Am I entitled to the rent payments as long as the property is vacant? What should I know? What about damages and clean up? Looks like he had a rough last few months. He was a great tenant. One of the most respectful and honest.

Issues I see are getting in touch with the family or executor of the estate to collect.
