How can I get my rent payment?

Rose Feng

Posted Jan 27 2015, 06:35

The lease signed for one year, and it is going to expire in March, 2. The tenants due is $$2745. The deposit is $2000. If the tenant did not pay the electric and water bill, me- the landlord is responsible for the due  with township ,which could be another $400. Also, if the tenant damaged my property or appliances, will be more loss. 

Acoording to PA law, If I file the eviction now, it takes 2 weeks for the hearing, and another 21 days for them to move out. so by the time , they already moved out. so I do not think eviction will work except there is eviction report will stay on their rental history. 

I have been a landlord for 5 years, and this is first time that I have to deal with. Please advise me what is the best that I can do to get my rent money. I already take photos of their cars, and I know where is the woman works.  There is co-signer , I know where she rented a house.

Thanks in advance!
