We have a 1 year Lease/Rental agreement that started 2/01/21 thru 01/3122 that has very concise and specific default provisions.
Renter has advised they will be abandoning our rental on or before 09/01/21, thus
defaulting on the following 4 months rental. This amounts to significant dollars.
I contacted Sumter County Sheriff Dept. they can't do anything without a court order.
Have now contacted 2 attorney firms close to TV, left voicemail asking if they handle
this type of case. Asked to reply either way, thus far no reply from either.
I am not going to just sit in a corner on this, letting the Renter get away with this.
Now in WI but will be flying to TV 09/02/21. Thanks in advance for any help on this.
I don’t see the purpose in wasting money on a lawyer. Maybe something came up and the renter has no alternative. Or maybe just changed their mind. Either way it happens. Forget about it and move on. You don’t want to be labeled as a bad landlord. It’ll get around fast on social media. And as others have said you might end up better off with new renters.
