Need to do anything legal to enter property tenant vacated?
The wife, my tenant, left in a semi with the kids and all the furniture to another state. She left the non-working husband at my property. He is agreeing to leave in about a week or so with his desk and 4 boxes, which is all he has now. I told him as soon as he's out I will stop eviction proceedings. I don't care about the rent money at this point, just want to get him out of there. When he's gone should I just take over the property or have all of us sign a form saying we're legally done with this arrangement? What form would this be if I have to do that? It's hard to get in touch with either of them so even signing a form will be a pretty big effort. I'm inclined to just take over the property and do none of that but don't want any of them coming back and saying I locked them out or something to that effect. I don't think they'll do that but you never know.
