I know its mean to say that people who do their own contracts get what they deserve, but you must know that if you are paying a couple hundred thousand dollars for something it just might have been worth spending $600 on a lawyer to do a proper contract for you.

Despite this, I have tried to be patient and haven't initiated any eviction proceedings, even though Hawaii Tenant Law allows me to issue a "notice to pay rent" after just 5 days of delinquency.I've heard that if you're having issues with a military tenant, you can contact their commanding officer to help resolve the problem.
