I can't spell. I meant elyria municipal.. All my houses so far are in Elyria all on the east side near the newer Jimmy Johns, Super Walmart, Chestnut Commons area.  It is definitely a mecca for renting over that ways. If I actually marketed the houses I would probably get 15-20 every day trying to rent. I get 5-8 calling now and that's overwhelming as it is since I don't have infinite free time. I see you are in the Elyria area as well!

I'm assuming based on what the other landlords said they will be there during move out day so not sure how that will go or the idea of abandoned property. I'm guessing they will take it all.  Can u get them for littering if they leave their stuff on my front yard??  It was the only screening I have done with my cell phone and didn't realize I could scroll down as they had a bunch of court appearances but none to crazy serious. Then when I got curious I checked online a few months later after a few strange occurrences and latest and low and behold found 2 evictions within the last year.. I realized quickly I screwed up..

Hopefully they take it all but who knows there are always weird things I read happening on here and other sites..  Still just blows my mind that not only can a tenant stay in one's house and not be forced immediately from the home.. I mean don't worry about the landlord that is losing money and could potentially lose their investment because of some I'll intentioned tenant.... O and let's make sure the landlord has to put more money out to help the person stealing from them move...

What a POS human being. Some things never cease to amaze me and the fact that the laws aren't better after decades of this is crazy..  Someone who does not pay rent is stealing and should be treated as such without delay.... I'm sure he would be pissed if his clients (if he has any) refused to pay him after he did work for them. Landlord ing is a business and he's refusing to pay after providing him with a service.... What a shame.......  I am an investor in Ohio I hope I never get one that bad......

I have tenants in one of my homes that have been evicted buy I know now based on 2 prior evictions and talking to their landlords of the past the tenants are not going to move until moving day.  I'm sure because they have no where to go and I have t9 hire the labor to move their cap out, which is stupid.

Just curious as to anyone experiences with these situations as I have been lucky to not have evicted anyone yet since I started way back when.  Any pitfalls or problems or potential problems I need to look for?  Obviously the bailiff will be there who is a police officer/former police officer who also says he's known the evicted tenant since they were young lol. I'm not sure if that can wrk against me.  Also I am in Ohio do I have to treat their stuff in any certain way I mean if I have their clothes in my hands do I have to be delicate or can I just throw them (I know it's vindictive but they owe me ($3000+) and why am I moving them out(rhetorical question).. Anyone had any conflicts ie tenant saying do this or do that I mean I'm not listening to a tenant who has been screwing g me over for months tell me how to handle his/her stuff that they should have moved months ago...

Thanks!

I can tell you 5k on 10 properties isn't going to get you much of a position or return.....

I'm in the process of removing mine. Ive had several tenants actually have the gull to say rent isn't even really due til the 3rd because they get a 3 day grace period. I actually have to explain to them that it's for a moment you forget or working overtime, insert crazy happening here and couldn't get it in the mail. It instantly tells me over and over again I made a bad choice renting to them.

what's worse. Waiting for a tenant who can pay for rent and fees or giving a tenant who can't afford fees and more than likely rent a house
