Hi everyone,
Well, this is the first time we have had to take a tenant to the tribunal. The property in question is currently being managed by a new PM. The old PM let too many issues slip and did not chase the rent properly. Anyway, the tenant is in arrears, and has not paid rent since 15 March.
The date set for the hearing is 4 May. The tenant from what I understand from the PM has been issued with a letter to vacate, and has been sent the date of the hearing. I will not be in attendance at the hearing, (the new PM will represent us), but I would like to hear from investors who have experienced this situation before. What I should expect?
Is it likely the tenant will be made to leave? Is it possible the judge will give her an opportunity to pay and complete her lease which expires in August?
Other possibilities?
We have insurance which covers rental default and damage, so am not too concerned.
Would love some advice,
Regards Jason.
