What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? TEXAS
Hello -
So I have gotten myself into a situation that I am not quite sure how to handle. I needed to move out of my apartment and move to a new city for work. So I decided to sublease my Apartment to someone else. She moved in on August 15th and paid pro-rated rent for that month. Agreed to pay $850 rent at the beginning of each month. So far she has not paid anything, she just keeps claiming she is "working on it". I originally told her to pay or be out of there by the 7th. When she didn't I decided to extend it and told her she has 5 days and must pay the rent by Sunday the 12th at 5pm or have all of her items out of there.
I made her sign a contract between us that states that she would be paying rent on the 1st of every month. The contract did not mention anything about evictions. My question is what can I do if she does not pay by the 12th? Should I contact the police - would they remove her? Can I start throwing her stuff out or what? Just need this woman gone.
Thanks for any help!
