Charlotte - NC - Eviction - is there restriction?
One of my property tenant is not paying for several months now and property management folks saying that there is restriction on evictions, i.e. we can't do evictions, but it's been almost 9 months with no rent, i'm really under with my bills on this property.
When does this restriction will be taken off? Any ideas how I can get this tenant out or get some cash flow..please help!!

Jason is on point with his recommendation of the local apartment association. Right now landlords have limited options as it comes to evictions due to the ban. Has your pm reached out to the tenant to see what it would take for them to return possession of the property and just leave? I would rather have them move out and pay me back in installments under an agreement that nonpayment will result in you pursuing them in court for the full amount. I have done this before with tenants that never can catch up but care about their credit/eviction record. So far everyone paid back (even other family members submitted payment on their behalf to help). Most people will work with you if they understand you are hurting from their actions as well and will try to make it right.
If not you have to wait it out right now until the end of the ban.
