If your rental lease is up then you arent really evicting a tenant as much as you are notifying them that you will not be renewing the lease. You need to give at least 30 to 60 days notice to be fair to the tenant.

If the lease is now month-to-month or a periodic tenancy then it can be terminated for any reason, although I would still recommend 30 days notice to avoid any problems.

Go to your local courthouse and obtain an eviction packet, normally available at no charge. Follow the procedures outlined therein. Filing fees and sheriff's fees vary from county to county.

Can a landlord evict someone living on their property when they haven't signed a lease?

I am presuming we have three components here: a landlord, a tenant, and a subtenant. The landlord in this case is presumably renting to a tenant, while the tenant is presumably renting to a subtenant. I presume that tenant has a lease while the subtenant doesn't. The tenant becomes the landlord for the subtenant. Since there is no lease (in most states subletting does not involve a lease) in this case, the tenant who is the subtenant landlord can evict the subtenant. While the main landlord can evict the tenant -which automatically evicts the subtenant -only the tenant can evict the subtenant. But the main landlord can evict all by evicting the tenant.

Can a landlord evict a non tenant from rental property after a year of living at the property?

Yes, the landlord can evict a non-tenant from the property just as they could the tenant. You must follow the same eviction procedures as you would with a tenant.On a side note, a court may agree that the non-tenant was in fact a tenant-after the fact because of the duration in which they lived on the property. Such situations are similar to families with children. You have the adults on the lease, but the children are residing there without being on the lease.


Can you start leasing your condominium then have to evict a tenant because bylaws have changed?

A change in the by-laws of an association should have no effect on a current tenant. A change in the CC&Rs, such as an amendment that applies a rental cap to the community, may change an owner's ability to rent or lease in future. Any current tenant should be protected by the lease agreement and/or the amendment, so that no change in governing documents should force an owner to evict a tenant.

Can a landlord evict one tenant not the other?

He could, but it depends on the wording of the lease. Normally there is only one tenant on a lease: the rest of the legal occupants are considered part of the household. A landlord can kick out the one tenant and create a new lease for another occupant, making him the tenant.
