Self managed property. Nuisance tenants. Many complaints from neighbours.
Tenant signed lease agreement stating that 2 people were living in the property. There was actually 4. When landlord found out they issued a 'breach of agreement' and gave them 7 days to vacate the property.
They assure landlord that they will be vacating, they stop paying rent.
Day to vacate arrives, no preparations to move made. Vacation day +1, tenants still in property. landlord tries to call, phone switched off. tenants playing dead and keeping very quiet to not arouse suspicion.
landlord visits property. tenants answer door, claim that they cannot afford to hire removalists until vacaction day +4....rent still unpaid. The interesting thing is that they removalists didn't help them move in.
If the tenants still remain in the property after they've been told to shove off, what recourse do landlord's have (this is under the WA RTA by the way)
