Just get an eviction company to come take the person's stuff out to the curb, and either change the locks yourself or have a locksmith do it as soon as they are out. 

Let them pay a locksmith to fix the door knob.

so we finally get possession of our duplex we won at auction. legally, the company we went through to get deed said, we cannot talk to anyone or enter the property until the 30 day eviction is up. so this Saturday is the day the we willl go over and get a locksmith to enter.my wife found out from neighbor there is a 20 year long tenant upstairs but the owner lived in lower unit.

The locksmith is coming Monday, I got a verbal from the bank to accept less than full amount on the lates and penalties and might be able to get this place nailed down by mid-March or so.

Forgot the kickback from the locksmith.

And if they don't have any keys to send, then you will need a locksmith - but permission of owner must be obtained ahead of time.

I had no keys so I nervously called a locksmith.

I would like to keep from having to pay a locksmith to come out and if I can find the keys, or use a bump key to get in cheap, it will be much less hassle for me.Thanks for the tips.

Hey guys, im looking to get started here in florida. currently i have done exactly 0 real estate deals.... haha -=X (i still rent) Currently im residing in Lake Mary, just north of Orlando, and im in the process of selling my locksmith business.

Do I have the right to enlist the help of a locksmith and enter the condo if they are not home or do not answer (the management office lost my copy of the key, long story)?
