You can evict a tenant when the tenant breaks the lease or rental contract by not paying rent or lease payments. You can also evict a tenant who breaks a lease by breaking rules listed on the lease.

∙ 11y agoThis depends on what you mean by a threat to you. If your tenant threatens you in any way, they are committing a crime. For this, in addition to police remedies, you may be able to evict the tenant on the basis of violating the terms of the lease, which most often has a term that includes that the tenant must not break any laws that pose a threat to the property or the neighbor. As the landlord, you are technically considered part of the property, under which that clause would apply.

∙ 11y agoYes, a landlord can threaten to evict you for any reason. Whether he can evict you is another issue. Basically, if you are not abiding by the terms agreed thereto on the lease then you can be evicted. However, you cannot be evicted for retaliatory reasons, such as because you asserted your rights as a tenant or because you contacted certain agencies to complain that your landlord is not complying with their rules, for example, Code Enforcement.

Can a public housing authority evict a disabled tenant?
Whether a tenant is disabled does not have a bearing on whether he can be evicted. If a PHA has the right to evict a tenant then it can evict such person regardless of disability.

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.

How can you ask non tenant to move out?
If the person has the legal right to live there on a month-to-month basis, he is a tenant. But we are presuming that you, the landlord, didn't rent the unit out to this person: perhaps your tenant did, known as subleasing. If you, the landlord, allowed this, then you have to have your tenant evict the sub-tenant. If you didn't allow this, then you have to enforce the terms of the lease, and make your tenant correct this problem immediately or you can evict him, which automatically forces the sub-tenant out.
