Jenny Scott When should I file eviction?
3 January 2012 | 15 replies
Professional tenants are great talkers.They stay at one place and pay first month then get a few months free.Then leave and put first months down again with another landlord.They pay 3 to 4 months out of a year this way.What needs to happen is there are 2 offices.One in Roswell and one in downtown Atlanta.You can file in the Roswell office for eviction.Before filing you need to give the 3 day notice tacked on the door and mailed demanding the rent in full or face eviction.The cost to file evictio nwill be around 80 something dollars.70 something if just one tenant on the lease but we always file a secondary (and all others) for ten bucks more.This covers ANYONE in the property at the time of eviction.So you will go file in Roswell office and then the tenant will get in the mail and have 7 days to respond.If the tenant does not respond you will get a default eviction from the judge.You will not get a judgement in this case and must file in small claims court against the tenant to recover damages.After you have the eviction order you pay 20 bucks and file a writ.The order will go down to the sheriffs office and they will schedule a time for the tenant to be out.The process can take 2 to 5 weeks depending on how many writs Fulton county has to serve for that month.It pays to use the eviction companies and pay the 120 bucks for the service.They have 8 to 9 people and get in and out fast.The sheriffs office knows this and gives those cases earlier scheduling priority versus and a landlord doing it with a few helpers taking an hour to evict a tenant.If the tenant does file an answer in court you will get a court date.Make sure you are there ON TIME.If the tenant shows up late the judge is already ready to throw the book at them.If YOU the landlord show up late you are in for a world of hurt.The judge sees it as if you don't show up to get the eviction order for your own property WHY should the judge care??

But there is always a motivating factor for them when they actually do take my offer: foreclosure, divorce, probate that kind of thing.I've had no success in buying when the owner lives in another neighborhood and has no motivation.One hoarder I moved required 7 double storage lockers and a lot of truck trips for my helper.

You have a part-time awesome helper (12.00 an hour) and another part-time (8.00) that can basically clean up, caulk, mud, tape, prime and paint (this guy spends 90% of his time on another house unless you need him as a third person).
