sorry) has this whole thing about family and pets in the photo with you too, to soften it up.  

Think of all the things that could go wrong and see if the lease addresses them: unauthorized pets or tenants, early termination, security deposit, lease violations, late rent, eviction, lawn maintenance, parking, etc.5.

She also has people not on the lease living there and a cat (no pets were authorized).

Also, be specific on pets (e.g. no pets, pet charges or size limits) and number of cars allowed. 

@Andy Rousch A lot of tenants think a large yard is a huge plus, especially if they have pets or children.

I have read all the rules within the RSO, but still seems unfair.Thats why I am looking for a creative alternative.The only thing that seems in my favor is no lease and tenants brought in pets with no notice@Jerry Murphy I thought lawyers were provided by the city for low income tenants?

(Backstory - I bought the house from my Dad's Estate - he recently passed away - They are bad tenants, and have a long history of paying the rent late and/or not in full, and they are in breach of this current lease with two dogs and other pets in the unit - They were put on notice about the pets too - so I'm the recipient of slews of horrid texts.I'm hoping they will go on their own - they really need more space - 6 people in a two bedroom - but the reality is I will likely have to go through the eviction process.

The property is no pets.
