• Tenant not vacating

Hi,
We have a tenant who has been living in our property. Unfortunately the rental agreement was not renewed for many years. Now there was a mutual discussion and request to ask them to move. This communication has been done many months ago but the tenant is not moving, also has not been paying bills. Please advise how to issue a legal notice considering that we do not have a new rental agreement. We would not want to make one either since we are asking the tenant to vacate.

In case of no registered lease deed, lease is subject to termination by giving 15 days eviction notice. If not vacated, file eviction suit.

Hi,

In case of stay without rent agreement, the stay in your property may be termed as unauthorised occupation and you may file Police complaint for it. It will be better option to get property vacated.

Looks like you have done everything from your side to vacate him from schedule property but still he reluctant to leave. I advise you to send legal notice from advocate but still if he do not vacate then you must file a suit for eviction and claim losses and compensation.

  1. You have to file a Rent and eviction suit against the tenant. 
  2. It's not mandatory for you to first serve a legal notice upon the Tennant. However, you may choose to serve it, hopping it has the desired effect and you get saved of the trouble of filing the suit in court. 
  3. I'm prepared to file the suit as your advice, and; if you desire, to first serve the legal notice upon them. 
  4. So .

Hello, 

If there is no rent agreement then the same will be considered to be a month to month tenancy. 

Send him a legal notice for eviction and if he does not evict the property after that also then file a suit for eviction in the court of law. 

Let me know if you need an advocate for the same in Bangalore.

Dear Sir,

Nothing to bother. The primary tenancy in writing was orally renewed as such now they are on oral tenancy, it is recognized by Courts.

======================================================================================

TENANCY ORAL RECOGNISED BY THE SC

 

Thus, for five years the tenant shall enjoy immunity from being evicted from the premises," the court said. The court realized that in most landlord-tenant disputes, there were no written contracts and the tenants took advantage of the situation because of the slow process of rent control laws and the judicial process involved in eviction.

If the tenant refuses to vacate after the expiry of the lease then you may move to court and obtain an order of eviction against him. Non-payment of rent is also a ground on which the lease can be brought to a premature end by the landlord by moving to court and filing a case for eviction.

Dear sir. 

You just have to send a written notice to your tenants that due to non payment of rent and bills you are violating the terms and conditions which was fixed between you and tenant due to which you are serving a notice of one month to vacate the premises with all your belongings and pay the balance amount also.

1. There is no need to serve a notice to him.

2. You can directly file a petition for eviction of tenant before the Rent Controller on the ground that you require the premises for your bona fide personal use and default in rent.

You can straightaway issue a legal notice to vacate the premises immediately for the reasons you rely upon. You can issue the legal notice through an advocate also 

You may discuss with an advocate in the local and proceed.
