Advice on evicting a Section 8 tenant

Peter Chu

Posted

I have a section 8 tenant for the last 5 years.  Each year she get worse.  This year when the annual inspection came, I told her I will not fix all those things to pass, this year her boys got older and wrecked most of the house.  I gave her a 30 day notice to vacate.

That was 3 months ago.  During that time frame, she has not gotten the RFTA or found a new place to move to.  SHRA stop paying as of 10/01/14.  She also broke most of the time.  She just sleeping most of the time I go visit, and she always changing cell #.  How do I get her motivated to move?  What time frame does she have after the contract expires?

I was told by an attorney that because I did not fix those thing that were on my side for the annual inspection, that I may not be able to evict her?  It was my fault that she is no longer in contract?  Should I start the eviction process? cash for keys?

Any advice to a solution would be greatly appreciated!
