Problem tenant during COVID. how to evict?
Hi everyone,
Am looking for advice on how to deal with this situation
One unit in a 7 unit property outside the GTA
A single male in his 30s
-He got drunk, started calling and leaving texts cursing and berating the condition of the unit. This occurs almost every weekend.
-Unit was in great condition when he first rented it out.
-Owner and Property manager showed up, initially tenant would not let them in. some flooring was torn up, doors were broken, toilet broken, fridge was thrown off the balcony (there are young children in other ground units...), garbage and rotting food everywhere.
-tons of verbal abuse during this time, near assault until a neighbor intervened. This was all captured on film.
-Owner replaced the fridge.
This tenant had always been late on rent. Slipped a few months.
N4 forms were always submitted.
A payment plan was created and agreed upon.
Claimed covid, lost his job and said he couldnt pay. Tenant was following until he stopped paying.
City services sent a cheque for pay for 80% of balance.
Tenant hasn't been paying at all since.
What can be done in this situation? We've offered him a job with a painting company, he did not reply.
