A Tenant Doesn't Want To Move Out After His House Rent Expires by Darlingme(f): 7:50pm On Jan 09 |
Have you ever had an experience of a tenant who has refused to evict a house even after the rent expiration? Despite all the notifications and reminders? Someone you told a year before and you kept on reminding him. What's the best option for such a tenant who is threatened you the house owner that he is free to stay for another period of 6 month after his rent expiration, claiming he is yet to find another house to move to. according to Nigeria law. He has stayed for free for three months already. What would you advise? 4 Likes

Darlingme: It's NOT illegal to renovate your own house. Give him a notice IF you like. The reason he's DRAGGING your own house with you is because he expects you to act like a REASONABLE person. Don't! 46 Likes 5 Shares |

Why are people so wicked? If he's passing through some problems he should speak up, I think you should look for the church he's attending and talk to his pastor. If it didn't work, inform the police. What nonsense! 5 Likes |

The only way to deal with such tenants is to frustrate them until they leave. It's usually a war of attrition because if you don't, they would continue to stay even beyond the 6 months notice. Bear in mind that their continuous presence is costing you money especially when they choose to be stubborn. - Cut power. - Change gate locks arbitrarily and don't give them the key. - Send notices of rent due every 2 weeks. Never acknowledge the 6 month grace period. - Disconnect water - Remove the roof 30 Likes 2 Shares |

This is very easy thing to do in Nigeria. Just engage someone to represent the stubborn Tenant in court and obtained ejection court order from the judge and present to him court sherriff with police instantly stubborn tenant properties will be fling out of your house then you have your peace.

Tell your lawyer to serve a notice to quit to the tenant. If he fails to pack out after the expiration of the notice, the bailiff will be sent to come and pack his properties. If he is owing you, his properties will be kept in court till he finishes paying you. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Building a house for rent is most often the product of a dull and empty mind. It makes no sense tying down money that can be put into business with very quick potential for returns into building house for rent. Yes it is a safe investment but the singular purpose of investment is to generate returns not to park capital idly. 11 Likes |
