Forum / General Property Management / eviction

Our tenant is way behind on their rent. they have been promising to pay but have not made any payment for over a month. We found out that he no longer has his job. We gave them a three day eviction notice, can we change the locks after three days if they decide not to leave?

RE: eviction

I think the first step here is to see what it says in the lease. I have tenants who have leases where changing the locks after a certain time was written right in the document. It is another reason to make sure that you have a lease document that is up to date and reflects what you need a s a landlord!
