Can I Take Action to Force a Tenant Out of My Property for Non-Payment?
The only legal eviction action you can take is to follow the steps outlined in the laws and regulations governing eviction where your property is located.
When you aren’t able to resolve a situation with a tenant, it can be very tempting to take action yourself. But trying to force a tenant out by turning of power, changing locks, or even removing their possessions can have serious consequences!
You could find yourself on the losing side of a lawsuit, and end up owing the tenant money. It’s much wiser to be patient, and follow the process of the law to evict a troublesome tenant.
