Quote from @Richard F.:
Aloha,
You are on the right track, getting the attorney on it immediately. Do not relent. Do not accept ANY partial payment. If she contacts you, refer her to the Attorney, do not discuss anything regarding the rent. If she has maintenance issues (other than an actual emergency), tell her to submit them in writing per local LL/Tenant laws, then handle as necessary.
Most importantly, tighten up your screening process. This should never have happened so quickly.
I do not think she’s even moved in yet. She parked her car in the parking lot and it’s been there sitting for 10 days according to the cameras. I’ve written literally hundreds of leases in the past 12 years or so. This is my first eviction I have ever had to file with the court. I’ve sent several notices to quit, and they just leave. This one is just bazar.
Everything checked out, license, I’d check, bank statements, w2s, employment verification, etc. Not sure on what’s going on with this one.
