That in itself ought to give a person reason for pause, because just because one set of laws says ok, that doesn't mean you can't be punished under another set of laws (think about the drug laws on the state and federal levels for example).There are two exemptions for which New Jersey allows a broker to perform an appraisal (BPO).

(The tenant was only about 3 months from the end of his lease.)I will say that I was feeling pretty smug about getting off so easy, so the rental gods decided to punish me for my hubris.

The Sheriff is only involved with the writ of restitution and lock-out, after the court has ruled in our favor for unlawful detainer.  

Do you think that the legal owner of the building should be punished forever because her brother is angry that he didn't get deeded the property instead of her? 

There are also other instances of shady activity I've seen from him that cause me to judge his intentions, so I'm now naturally on guard.I included "with notice" just to clarify if anyone had questions of whether he showed up in an unlawful manner.

As an owner, I do understand it the owner statement is later than normal, but not to have some set of accounting in a month here in VA is illegal, and is punishable by board action.I have a new owner that came to me July 1, and has a 12 unit apartment building and said my property manager is not doing anything to help me or my building.  

Just google "Wiring neutral to ground" and read to your heart's content about why this is a bad, dangerous, unlawful thing to do. 2) Yes.Seriously, people - feigning ignorance on such a major topic is beyond weak.

Turned out that they just wanted to warn me about what I was doing but I got off lucky...This crime is punishable up to 5 years and a fine of 5000.

One more wrinkle...I was all geared to evict on the sub tenancy issue (my lease only allows it with written permission...but then I would go for a whole new lease)I find out the county has a professional mediator whole job it is to keep unlawful detainer suits out of the courtroom.

In my 28 years of Land Lording, I have never had to evict a tenant (although did secure 2 Unlawful Detainers on tenants during that time but they moved before the Court dates) and never received a bad check (some of that is luck).
