Eviction - Tenant Forged Documents
Hey everyone -
Found out today my tenant faked their bank statements and employment. It was poor screening on my part (I used Zillow's rental manager, but didn't realize the income section wasn't verified). I'm in the process of filing an eviction, but I'm curious if there are larger legal implications here with them forging official documents like bank statements and lying about employment. I know after the eviction is approved they have another 5 days to vacate the property, but I'm concerned they'll trash the place after the judgement, and curious to see if I can get them out same day as the court hearing
