Property Managers & Contested Eviction
Accidents happen and sometimes you become a landlord when you did not mean to. Some accidental landlords deal with their new position by hiring a property management company. That is fine. Let the property management company handle the repairs, collect the rent, deal with the details of keeping the property rented. The property management company can file tenant eviction paperwork as long as the eviction is uncontested and for possession only.
Property managers and contested evictions do not mix effectively. A property manager may show up to represent an owner, but unless he is the owner’s attorney, he does not have a legal say in what goes on (in which case his cause may not get very far).
Tenant eviction is a summary process, meaning it takes a shorter time than a normal lawsuit; however, if the tenant raises a legal defense, then either the property owner has to represent himself or herself in court, or be represented by legal counsel.
