What to do when a tenant abandons property at rental house?
February 23rd, 2009
kimmer asked:
We have a rental home in Illinois and our tenant of 2 months had left to go see his father on the east coast for 3 - 4 days. That has been nearly 3 weeks ago. He will not return our calls to the only number we have available so we can find out what his intentions are. Our dilema is we don’t know what to do with his personal belongings (clothing, small appliances etc.) that he left behind. The house was partially furnished when he moved in so he didn’t have to furnish many big items. We want to be as fair as we can and not violate any laws. His rent is now overdue as well. And to complicate things even more the rental house he was staying in is being bought out under eminent domain by the State and now they are ready to negotiate. He was aware of this signing the lease which is why we have him on a month to month tenancy. I appreciate any information you can offer.

Contact a lawyer and ask questions about legal procedures that you can take. If he is late on his rent anyway send him a notice. If he does not respond with in proper timing then you can remove his belongings legally. He might not have any intentions on comming back to jthe property. Or just give it another week or two like you said it’s been 3 weeks. But, still send him a notice.
