Gas shut off When tenant doesn't pay gas, how long usually take CNG shut off gas? My tenant called me and stove/heat is not working anymore. I called plumber and my plumber says it is due to gas was shut off. I closed this multi unit Apr 1 so it has been more than 5months. I think my tenant was paying but she forget to pay for 1-2months? I told my tenant gas is still tenant responsibility. She says she never paid Gas when the previous owner managed. Electric/Gas is still tenant responsibility on my contract. And other tenant is also saying same thing that it is tenant responsibility. I will ask tenant to pay the service call for plumber that i paid ($125).

Hello

I have 3 Units Multi Home in CT. Currently my PM is manage the units BUT I had feeling that PM was not the person whom I can work long term (She is kind of keep talking and not listening..bad communication, no email/picture for any repair she did..etc..)

Now one of my tenant called that my PM discriminated the tenants (they want to report court etc... for discrimination ) I told tenant that sorry for hearing that I will work with tenant directly from now on if there is issue so told them text/call me directly and I will take care of the current issue (bath room/pest control) 

I was not aware of the issue until today. I told my PM that I want to terminate the PM contract but PM just called me that actually tenant is threatening killing PM family (My pm says tenant sent threatening text messages at night) 

At this moment, I am not sure what really happened between PM and Tenant but I sent email to PM that I want to terminate the contract. (I was going to change PM anyway due to bad management style/ bad communication etc..)

And I will ask each tenant that contact me directly from now on if there is any issue. I will try to do self manage for while and see how its goes.

I am out of state investor and if there is the legal issue (court issue) between PM and Tenant (tenant and PM says they will report police or court), what I need to prepare ? I really didn't expect such thing happen in my MF units but appreciate if anyone can advise.

Thanks

Thanks All for quick help!!

Hello

My offer was accepted for 6 units MF home in CT. This home looks good for cash flow. I am about to start process. One question is among 6 unit, one unit is being eviction process. I asked my agent that i want to confirm if seller can finish eviction process before close but still pending from seller side. In CT, how long will take eviction process, I guess it may take 3-6 months? Any general advice for this situation? Should I add this condition on contract that eviction process must complete by closing? There are multiple offers and I would like to close this deal if possible. 

Thanks all for your advice.

Hello, I closed MF (3units) home in Hartford. I have 2 tenants (1 and 3 floor, 2nd floor is vacant) who already been living the units and PM is working on with tenants to get new lease signing. My question is how long usually it will take to get done the paper work with section 8 department in Hartford. Anyone had similar experience? And another existing tenant is the domestic violence house help program. Any idea how long usually it will take to paper work done?1FL: Section 8 tenant 3:FL: Domestic violence house help program
