Legal issues with basement rental

[Michael Mcdonough]

I have renters who moved in 4 months ago. (They live in my basement apartment) they have broken many things in my contract and have now said they plan on leaving in a month. Our contract is a year long. They said if I show there place for future renters they will get authorities involved. I want to evict them and sue them for the many things they have broken in my contract but I have one concern. I’m not sure my place is for sure legally able to be rented out to 2 adults and 5kids! I need help on what to do and who I may need to talk to.

 Get an attorney involved. Based on your message it appears this is very stressful and something you are not experienced in. Let the tenants know going forward all communication should go through your attorney.

The other option is to get a property manager involved as well, but at this point i would go right to an attorney.
