I live in Wisconsin. I Moved into this upper apartment Last December on the 7th. It's an upper and lower section of a house and I live in the upper. When we started renting it was only a verbal lease between my roommate, myself, and the landlord.
Soon after awhile, I grew tired of his childish ways. He obviously wasn't ready to live independently despite his age of 20. I am 21 and am more responsible than him by far. I went with the landlord's son who has been my friend for five years who favors me over him tenfold and got a lease printed out and had his dad, himself, and I sign it. Now that my roommate was not on the lease I felt more secure living here. I even built a lock on my door.
Now the questions I would like answered are as follows:
1. Can I chose to kick him out at any time considering we lived on the verbal lease for about two months until I had the written lease figured out?
1.1. or do I have to wait until rent paying day comes? or what day?
(My issue is because he has been harassing me everyday for getting a written lease behind his back. I'm sorry I had to do that but I couldn't trust sharing the apartment with him anymor. The constant people coming over, The lame excuses for his messes, the lack of effort he puts in to make the place look appealing was all very distasteful compared to standard home conditions.)
2.Is there any reason why the landlord would be involved?
3.Can I physically force him out of the house without getting into trouble?
3.1. If he gets kicked out by me and does something irrational like break the door and the police come over, would I be at fault for any wrong doing?
Thanks for taking the time reading this. I appreciate any help I can get.
