Purchasing First deal, tenant supposed to be evicted
I'm purchasing my first deal, it a duplex and the owners say it will be delivered empty. One side is a family member that is moving out but the other side is a hold over tenant that the current owners started to evict march of 2020 but then COVID happened and they have been stuck with this non paying tenant that has been working the whole time. They were adamant that the tenant will be evicted on Sept 15 and the sheriff well carry out the eviction within 24 hours.
I'm hoping that the new governors plan to extend the eviction moratorium does not affect my deal. I hope they don't extend the moratorium either because you know they won't let it expire in January either, whose going to let landlord evict all those people in the middle of winter.
