I am the landlord of a house. My brother just got some financial problem, so I decided to let him move in to my house because he can't affort his rent. Then I asked my tanent to move out within 1 or 2 monthes, but he refused to move out. I told him my reason that my brother needs a place to live other than the street. He said "That's not my business, I don't care. You don't have the authority to ask me to move out." Is that real? I really need help on this, my brother needs help. What should I do to make the tanent agree to move???

If you dont have a written contract stating the lenth of time in which he has to live there ,you can ask him to move at any time.The best thing to do is to go to the sheriffs department and let them know all the particulars of your sition and ask them to serve him with an eviction notice..most states allow them anywhere between 30 to 90 days to move but if they dont move by then the sheriffs deparment will force them to move out or go to jail. I had to resort to this once and it worked out great. Good Luck to you and your brother i hope this works for you

As long as you don't have a lease which hasn't expired, you can evict him by merely serving him with a notice to vacate the premises....depending on the state, you have to give 30-60 days notice. You do not need a reason to evict this individual.
After doing this, you might try to negotiate with the tenant that if he can move out quickly and doesn't damage the property, you will give him his entire security deposit back....however, make sure the premises aren't damaged (check the plumbing, roof, etc.).
Or, you can pay your tenant a little money to vacate.
Also, you need to make sure that your house isn't under rent control, otherwise you may have to pay the tenant a move-out fee.

I would check your local and state laws regarding eviction. You have to be careful when kicking someone out. Especially if you all have a lease or some type of agreement.

IN some cities in NY and Calif,
tenants have extra protection.
They have a lease by construct of
city law. Until they violate their
lease, they cannot be "kicked out."
Check with city housing.

YES you do have the authority to ask him to move. it is your house. Did you call the police ???. Did this tenent sign a lease???. if so is the lease up ??? do they pay their rent on time ???. if they are behind on their rent you can get an order to make them move, if they destroy or don't keep your house clean you can make them move ,call the police and have them go with you.contact your lawyer and see what he says. or you could call the police and ask them.

i won't communicate on the legality of your difficulty, besides the undeniable fact that, i'd desire to remark from the owner component of issues. You state which you probably did no longer "lie" yet you withheld which you had a provider animal for the time of the utility technique. To me, it somewhat is cheating, and jointly as the understanding "lie" makes it sound such as you probably did something terrible, the reality is, you withheld substantial education that the condominium agent mandatory. From my component of the fence (landlord), withholding that education is rude and deceptive and that i can comprehend their hostility in the direction of you. in case you knew that previous approval replaced into mandatory, you will desire to have been imminent way till now the hire signing. With that suggested, wait it out. they'd approve your utility. in the event that they do no longer, you are able to document a criticism with HUD, or document a lawsuit, or any of the different cures human beings have thrown out, besides the undeniable fact that it won't get you the townhouse you like any time quickly. i think of the subsequent step is to maintain your hands crossed, desire the hostility blows over, and you get to sign. meanwhile, seek for yet another assets and be up-front from the get-go.

You can't just throw your tenants out. They have a lease, right? They are paying their rent, right? They haven't broken the lease in any way, right?
Your brother is going to have to sleep on your couch. Sorry.

If your tenant has a signed contract, and your tenant has paid you a deposit, and your tenant has done nothing wrong, then you need to honor that. The definition of this is simple - a contract and deposit is a promise you gave them to live in your rental property barring any undue damages or problems caused by your tenant.

Lease or no lease all you have to do is give a 30 day notice.

you need to serve him with a notice to vacate, check your counties housing authority for the correct amount of time. if he still does not move out by the deadline, you can send him to the attorney for an eviction process. good luck!
