We’re almost back on track! Rent court’s timeline for scheduling cases now only takes one month from the date filed - making it easier for us to evict tenants for non-payment of rent.

Cash for Keys Program

Cash for Keys is an agreement between an owner and a tenant for a renter to move out on an agreed-upon date in exchange for $500* cash.

If you have a tenant who stopped paying rent or is a nuisance due to incessant maintenance requests, you might want to consider offering Cash for Keys Program to get them to leave.
