Hi,
Send your tenant an Eviction Ramification Notice. If the cure time in your eviction notice expires and the tenant has not paid, you must be ready to go forward with a court eviction. If you are unfamiliar with the process of evicting a tenant, I highly recommend you use a lawyer who is experienced in landlord tenant eviction cases.

Hi,
There are various grounds available for evicting a tenant, rent law is a state based law and differs from state to state, contact some local lawyer to know about the actual legal position or,

See that rent is accumulated for more than six months then give notice and if does not pay rent within one month of your notice, file suit on the grounds of arrears of rent.

Hi,
In such situation, there are three stages to this process:- 1) The tenancy agreement should normally specify a notice period that you can give your tenants to vacate the property.
2) If the tenants remain in the property at the end of the notice period, you can apply to the courts for a possession order.
3) If you get the possession order granted and the tenant does not comply, you can then apply for an eviction warrant from the county court. The county court will then arrange to send in the bailiffs.
