Thanks everyone

This info is super helpful. 

Home is less than 12 years old, is in a duplex and owned in a Corp.

I will reach out to eviction attorney and keep everyone posted.

Hello All

I have a tenant since June 2021.  Since June 2022 they are on month-month lease.  The tenant has been late on rent for a few months. I want to serve them a 60-day notice to move-out.

One of my real-estate friends is telling me that the tenant is entitled for 1 month free rent. Is that true?

Quick Update

I took the tenant to Small Claims Court --- the tenant opted for Court Approved Arbitration.

Interestingly, In front of the Arbitrator,  the tenant admitted that they were at fault and was willing to repay the damages but in multiple monthly installments.

I agreed to the plan and so far the tenant has been paying the installments on time.

Appreciate everybody's help here

Appreciate prompt response and thanks for the great advice. 

I'll document everything and File a Small Claims Lawsuit with his Employer's Address.

Home: 3BR, 2Bath; Built in 2018.

Tenant staying for 3+ years. I served 60 day notice to terminate lease. Last day of lease 5/31. Vacated on 6/1 late evening.

Thrashed the home --- Walls with crayons, broken dishwasher, Shower Handles, Fridge Handles, Really Messed up Floor, Clogged Kitchen sink etc.

Labor, Material and Cleaning Expenses far exceed Security Deposit. 

I don't have Tenant's forwarding address but know his place of work.

What are my options?

Regards
