Real estate how can you handle a bad tenant?

[Wiserr]

we all know that when one build house for it he has to give it out for tenant which will be settling (paying him) on their desirable agreement either monthly or even yearly, we all know the qualities of good tenant include taking care of the house, pays his rent at the right time, follow the rules and regulation of the house, he's not troublesome and sees the house as if he's the owner of the house. are the major qualities of a good tenant, on the other hand disobedient and bad tenant tends to so the opposite, I think to be on the safer side and to avoid collision with your tenants,you should give them a written document of terms and conditions that they should follow to the letter.
You know paying the rent on time ain't a thing if the house is not kept in good condition .so for the tenants who finds it hard or if he cannot be able to change from been bad tenant in order to keep the house in good condition should i think the best advice here is for him to relocate that is he should automatically leave
so what and how can one handle bad and disobedient tenant?

There are laws guiding tenants and landlords in my country and those laws are meant to be respected if violated either the landlord or tenant will pay dearly. Hence when dealing with a bad tenant it is always good to see what the law says before taking any action, whatever actions you may decide to take against the tenant must be a legal action, hence you might end up regretting it and you maybe the one paying for damages even in your own house.

I have seen somany cases like that. I remember when I was still an undergraduate we had this group of three guys that took an apartment together and they were living together. Although it was one of them that paid for the place and signed the tenancy agreement form. But the guy went to bring two of his friends and they were all staying together. So it got to the time when his rent elapsed and he needed to renew the payment so he landlord came looking up for him and he had not been around . The land got frustrated and broke his door and moved his things out forcefully, at the end the land had to pay for what he didn't buy when they got to court.

Inasmuch as Real estate investment is lucrative and a goldmine, there are still a lot of challenges which can make one to run at a loss and this could be dealing with a bad tenant. In my Country, there are rules and guidelines, binding tenants and landowners and to a greater extent, these rules tend to favour the tenants and in some cases, this gives the tenants the leverage to misbehave especially those without guilt and conscience. This is also the more reason some landlords never get in contact with their tenants and till they live and pack out of the house, some tenants never get to know the real owner of the property because they only have access to physical contact with the Lawyer. This is now the new trend where landlords employ the services of legal authorities to act as a bridge between them and the tenants to avoid problems and unnecessary compromise and this is because, the law is the only common language which a lot of people understand. Tenants would be more cautious and prompt to pay their rents as at when due when dealing with lawyers then they would if they had direct contact with the landlord who has no legal backing. The best way to handle tenants either bad or good is to employ the services of a lawyer to be in charge and you pay him and have peace of mind.

I think one of the best ways in handling a bad tenant is by not relating physically with your tenants from the onset. In real estate business, there are some risks associated that can make you run into losses if not handled properly or professionally. It is mostly advised that landlords should have less physical rapport with their tenants because too much familiarity usually brings lackadaisical behavior from the tenants. When you purchase a land and build on it for the purpose of renting it out to tenants either for shop or house rents, it is best to involve a professional third-party which is a lawyer. The lawyer will be the link between the landlord and the tenants and in this way, you will not have any sort of interaction with them except through the lawyer and this will reduce the level of bad or misleading tenants. One problem that causes bad tenants too is in a situation where the landlord shares or lives within the same property with his tenants, it will definitely bring about some deviant behavior from the tenants because of the frequent rapport. In handling bad tenants, you need to put yardstick and measures in place from the onset because the laws of tenancy is always more favorable to the tenants than landlords.

To avoid having a bad tenants in the first place it is good to leave your property with the lawyers they should be the ones to hand over the property to any tenant.

A lot of tenants respect the law more than when an apartment is rented out by a landlord so they will start from the outset to respect every terms and conditions that will be given to them because they know the law will take a full effect on them if they go against the terms and conditions that have been laid down for them.

Secondly, it in good to assess a tenant in all ramifications before agreeing to give such a tenant your property you need to be sure that the tenants will be able to pay his or her rent as when due. it won't be a bad idea if a landlord reminds a tenant of his rent due few weeks before it's expiration.

When you have a bad tenant, it’s important to know how to handle the situation. If you don’t, your rental property could get labeled as a “problem unit” and the landlord may be forced to take legal action.

The first thing you should do is contact your local law enforcement department and let them know about the issue. This will help them determine if there is a crime involved and if so, who might be responsible for it.

The next step is to contact your insurance company and file an insurance claim for any damage that may have occurred due to the bad tenant. Make sure that you keep all receipts and records of what was done and when so that you can prove that this person caused damage to your property. If you can prove this, then it will make it easier for your insurance company to reimburse you for any costs associated with fixing up the damage caused by their negligence or lack of care.

You should also notify your building inspector about what happened so that he or she can conduct an inspection on the property when it comes time for renewal of permits or licenses which may need to be renewed soon after this incident occurs (such as a building permit). Your inspector will then write up an inspection report with his findings. All these listed can be done when the tenant appears not reasonable.
