Thanks Thomas,

Can I collect the full amount of the rent from the tenant if SEC 8 will stop payment for failing re-inspection?  i don't want to make repairs right now since the tenant will destroy something again by the end of February.

Marcia,

Thank you for your reply.  Per inspector report the tenant's responsibility just replace the light bulbs.  There are a lot of holes in the walls and per her report it says "fail" and I spoke to her and she said that this is LL's responsibility to fix that. Her letter stated that it is our discretion whether or not to allow the tenant to perform repairs to the unit for items listed on the inspection report as "tenant-caused damages" and she strongly recommend it be clearly established through an addendum to the existing lease if I will allow repair work to be performed by the family.  No"tenant-caused damages" on the report at all. I just don't know what is the right step at this time.  Can I evict the tenant for damages to the property?

Hello BP,

I have a SEC 8 tenant that resides in the unit for 6 years.  This unit failed inspection this year due to tenant's damages to the property.  Tenant said that she doesn't have money to repair. The lease will be expired by the end of February of 2018.  i want to make all repairs and then send 60 day notice that I won't renew a contract and then put it for sale.  I just realized that I don't have a tenancy addendum to the lease with the tenant.  What should I do now? Would it be impacted on my 60 day notice about non-renewal a contract?

Thank you in advance,

Thank you.

Thank you so much.  Will do a certified statement of security deposit and rent recovery service as well.

I am selling the property to the tenant and the closing was scheduled to 8/15.  Should I collect half rent or the whole month rent in case the closing won't happened?

Thank you guys for your advice.

The tenant left and didn't pay last month rent, no address left.  There some damages to the property.

Do I have to send itemized statement, showing that she owes money to me to the  address of my property?

i am not going to take her to court to spend money knowing that she doesn't have anything  to payme back.

The tenant left 2 months earlier than the lease will expire. I called, emailed, texted and no response.  Went to check on the property and neighbors told me that they moved out a week ago.  A lot of stuff was left in the backyard and there is something in the house by looking  through the window.  Can I get into the house or do I have to file eviction in order to get rid of their stuff in the house? What are the laws in GA?

Thank you in advance for the help
