Quote from @Gamal Harding: Anduril Industries' Expansion to Columbus: A Transformative Move for Real Estate InvestorsAnduril Industries, a prominent defense technology company based in Costa Mesa, California, has announced plans to establish a new manufacturing facility in Pickaway County, near Rickenbacker International Airport.

Lock-out, should they continue to not come even, would be typically less than 14-days.Unless the tenant comes even with the rent (which would result in dismissal of the non-payment of the case), there is generally limited defense to this process.

In my experience, most tenants will disappear when they receive the court summons because they have no defense.

Chris if one reads the thread were OP posted about 38 k reno on a apartment unit and others asked questions etc etc.. the OP got quite defensive and rude frankly..

-When a tenant moved out, the management company refunded their security deposit but failed to account for damage, such as holes in walls and outlets ripped off the walls, leaving me with repair bills and also tenants moving in without the repairs being done.Stuff like this that is consistent and when I ask questions they are defensive, when I ask for more quotes for high ticket items they are defensive. 

The best defense against rats entering your property is to seal off all entry points (holes, cracks in walls), remove food sources (dirty dishes, food left in trash cans), and water sources (like leaks). 

Much of it based on defense spending that will likely increase as assets are moved from Colorado to Alabama to include the Space Command HQ.

Although certain defenses do exist including, insofar as is relevant here, unreasonable hardship, " 'the court's discretion to grant or deny specific performance of a contract for the sale of realty is not unlimited; unless the court finds that granting a decree of specific performance would be a drastic or harsh remedy, or work injustice, the court must direct specific performance' " (id., quoting 91 NY Jur 2d, Real Property Sales and Exchanges § 204).

Tenants thought the space was theirs (and in their defense, they were kinda right), but boundaries are crucial.

A HUD complaint can cost thousands in defense, even if you are found innocent.
