Hi all, I have been in the process of trying to purchase a first home for the last 8 months without luck.

I have to do that with the water bill at two of my rentals as the water company will only allow the owner to pay the bill.If it is a condition of the lease, you can also give them notice that they are in violation of the lease and start an eviction process.
