And I have issued Steve an official warning notice.

I noticed you're a Real Estate Consultant.

Is there a clause in your lease that specifies a particular notice period for vacating the premises?

@Amby BhagtaniIf you are to go after them, I would get an attorney to send a termination notice and thus make sure you follow your agreementThe other question I have: When you mention they left for Europe - is it permanently or temporarily?

If someone has language on a situation like this in their standard lease terms I'd be interested to see what it says.Did she give a notice to vacate? 

Notice of the time of hearing on the application shall be given to the surviving spouse and heirs, if the decedent died intestate, and to the surviving spouse and devisees or legatees having an interest in the contract, if the decedent died testate.

This can be noticed if the lender ever sells to another servicer as well . 

Start the lawful notice/eviction process as soon as you can.

I've definitely noticed sellers asking more than what it is actually worth when compared to another property in the neighborhood that has been rehabbed better.

The below average tenant (late more than once, a little hard on the unit, or too much tenant drama) pay above market rent in hopes they give notice and move out.
