Kim The tenant filed bankruptcy on Jan 24. I filed a motion for relief of automatic stay. The tenants hearing was today but I didn't make it to bankruptcy court in time. I showed up late and the tenants lawyer stated he would send me a proposed consent order to state that the tenant must pay rent on time this month and going forward or the landlord can move forward with the eviction process. The tenant failed to pay rent today that was due by the end of the day. Would I be able to proceed with filing for eviction since the rent is now past due and since it's rent due post filing for bankruptcy?

Are you able to proceed with eviction if the following occurs? The tenant signs the lease and is living in the property, the tenant has a partner and two kids documented to be living with the tenant. The partner(girlfriend) files chapter 13 bankruptcy. Does that give this individual any right to stay in the property if she didn't sign a lease contract? The tenant has agreed to vacate the property but the individual who didn't sign doesn't agree to leave.

I am looking for a local agent that has experience in finding $40-90k single family homes, no major rehab. I'm not looking for turnkey programs. Any recommendations on agents to contact are appreciated.

Elizabeth Wilson Douglas Skipworth Thank you both for the information. I am unable to attend tonight's meeting but will do my best to join in next week for the morning meeting. Again, thank you both for the feedback and I look forward to meeting.
