Hi @Dan Baldini, the attorney' office with whom I pursued the case collect fee for each email or phone call. Hence I decided not to go with them. If there is a much easier or cheaper way to collect the dues I am for it.

thanks.

Hello,

              I was able to finally evict my tenant. To all those stress I had to go through during this process the only consoling factor is the judgment amount I got through the Justice of the Peace Court. What is the advice of the members in the forum on how to collect the dues from the tenants? In case someone has been successful please share the methodology that is legally approved.

thanks,

Ananth

 Due to the holidays the time to appeal has been extended and there are 2 more working days left. So just waiting.

What is the best I can offer as cash?

Hello, if the landlord has an eviction judgment in his favor what is the best advice you can give to the landlord in case the tenant appeals.

1. Hold on to it and wait for the appeal judgment

2. Do negotiation with the tenant

If it is item 2, what are the do’s and don’ts

For some reason the update I added to the previous post did not appear in the thread. I could not edit the previous post. My bad. Instead of Murphy's law, I had written Murthy's law. The idea of my thread is to share my experience and check if I can get advice and emotional support from like minded individuals but unfortunately the post was not properly understood and only people who are either PMCs or associated with one have answered. I do understand the advantage of having a PMC to run the property but we need to focus on what I have and need to do on the current scenario and not future. BTW I regret having posted the initial question.

Thanks for everyone who responded. Okay coming back to my subject of the post, “Murthy’s law prevailed”. I am closing this thread now and will start a new thread later. 

Hi Everyone, the last one month has been the most stressful in my life as I have to deal with a problematic tenant. These people were not on time when it comes to paying rent and have several thousand dollars due including last month's rent.
Fortunately for me their lease was ending soon and I have already notified them through a letter sent through USPS and later through FedEx. They were not happy with it and would never respond to my texts and voice calls. 
I was told through a text message they would not pay the dues and said it is going to go to their new place and that they are going to move out on a day that is 3 days from now . I was happy at least they are going and wrote off their dues. The lease is ending in a couple of days and when we texted them about the time of their move out, a blunt reply "End of the day" came through. When asked if we can stop by between 6 and 6:30 p.m. the answer was they would not done with moving by then. So we relaxed a bit and asked if we can come over by 10 p.m. and the answer was, "IDK when we will be done". Just imagine the frustration we would have gone through. We were still trying to be calm and composed as we did not want to ruffle the feathers. To end the conversation we asked a question about where the tenant would leave the key when they are done. There was no response and we followed up again this morning and asked if they found a secure place to leave the key or else we offered to send them a lock box. However, until I write this there has been no response. I am thinking of stopping by the property on that day the tenant promised to move and see for myself if the move is happening. If I do not see them moving is it appropriate for me to knock at the door? In the event the tenant starts moving my plan is to just wait on the curbside and when done would like to go up to them and ask for the key. I thought about another situation wherein the tenant moves out much earlier than they promised and take the key along with them. Would it be appropriate for me to rekey or is it illegal?  I request this forum to advise how to proceed. 

As initially mentioned I am too much stressed out and already lost a few pounds weight.

Thanks
