Eviction Problem Wisconsin

Christopher Bell
Posted

Hey everyone! I just got under contract buying my first investment property that I’m turning into an Airbnb in Wisconsin. The place was previously a rental the the landlord was trying to evict. The tenant was supposed to be out the day we saw it but ended up still being there a day later. We have a must deliver vacant clause in there but has anyone had to deal with this before? I’m concerned on how to handle this. I don’t want to back out of the deal but also don’t want the previous owner to make this my problem. I’m also ok with him paying carry costs until it’s figured out. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

I've had this issue many times too---cash for keys always seems to do the trick. Make sure who ever pays the tenant to move gets their W-9 too for tax time.
