I posted about a fire in the tenant kitchen.  So i got an estimate and presented it to the tenants. They refused to pay and want to do the repairs themselves.  A handy man gave me an itemized list plus labor equals $1380.00.  Do i enter the unit and go ahead with repairs then sue tenants or can i go to court and ask for eviction?  They haven't paid this month's rent yet...HOWEVER< they filed a complaint with the city inspector for a different reason...so i am worried about retaliation..YET< they are late on rent and they caused damage to the kitchen.  they admitted to starting the fire.  I am waiting for the fire department report....this is such a headache LOL
