Thanks again for the input. 

Maybe I should have gave more info. I lived here for 15 years my self. There been tenants that have live here for 20 plus years. It's a nice place to live. It's just management is slow. Repairs are very slow. The owners have had problems with passed tenants going into the basement and sabotage pipes or any thing else they can do. Just to get back at the owners from them not paying rent. There's renters I have talked too. and I ask why they haven't paid. and they tell me. They are waiting for the landlord to come so they can pay. Well I send the landlord over to collect and here to find out that wanted to pay $75. and the owe $3000. The landlord files for a eviction. 

Not ever time the landlord can file for evictions. It's just it cost too much. and when people don't pay their rent. He doesn't make make. 4 years ago he rented an apartment next to mine to find out that the tenants (all of them) were wanted by the police. and one was wanted to by the US Marshals. Think about it. To do all the back ground checks and Police checks and so on just costs a lot of money. 

I was hoping that some one mite have better ideas on how to do this checks and so on. With out them costing money. Or some kind of court procedure that wouldn't cost him some any thing to file evictions.

Thank you every one for your input

I'm trying to come up with some ideas for my landlord sense he's older than I am. I just don't think he knows what to do. any way. My land lord rents apartments out to a lot of people who pay the 1st months rent and the deposit. and then live in the apartment for months until "Joel" (Land Lord) gets eviction notices from court and gets them removed. In the mean time Joel loses $1000 or dollars in rent. My question is. Because of this. Can he, Joel. go after family members for the balance. Is there an easy way to get his money for the rent that these people screwed him on. He does take this off his taxes. But he doesn't make money. right now there's 32 apartments and there's only 6 people living here. 

The idea is that he does what repairs he can. With out that money he loses on renters. I lot of the repairs can't or don't get done. 

Does any one have any idea's on what I could do to help Joel get the money from renters to just don't pay there rent. What can we do to get real people that will pay rent and stay.
