Tenant out, girlfriend still in the house
Hi guys,
The lease with my tenant ended but he paid for an extra month (last month is may), he had a fight with his girlfriend (she's not on the lease), he moved out and she stayed. I asked tenant to make sure she leaves at the end of the month, of course he says 100%. My question is what happens if she decides she wants to squatter? Is he obligated to pay another month? or am I stuck trying to evict her?
Thanks!

The best thing to do is to talk to her. Don't put a 30 day notice or anything that will seem aggressive. Sit down and tell her, "look, your boyfriend signed the lease, and its ending at the end of this month, will you be able to renew the lease on your own, or will you be looking elsewhere to rent". Something subtle but to the point. So she knows you're serious.
