Question

Help answer this question below.

I rented a room to a friend of a friend with no contract and I now would like this person to leave due to lack of payment and poor care of the house. Can I just tell the person to leave?

    That's considered a month to month tenancy and you have to give them 30 days notice.

    You have to give a full months notice.

    That is a month from the normal rent time.

    Of course you can. Explain why, and hopefully your friend will leave without any problems. If your friend doesn't leave, you would have to go to court to "evict" your friend, just as a landlord of an apt. building would. It's a lengthly procedure though. I wish you luck.

    Yes, you can. However, if the person refuses, you will then have to pursue legal resources. This has happened enough that there is a standard way to handle it. Just type the name of your state, plus "how to evict a roommate" in the google or yahoo.
