Tenants aren't paying rent, need advice.

No.17700957 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
I have 3 tenants living in my rental unit and they owe me almost $10,000 in rent at this point.

I'm starting to get super pissed off, because first they started being late, then very late, now they are two months behind. They've started to dodge text messages as well.

These aren't poor people, the unit is in a very HCOL area and these tenants all have careers. They're very nice people but the kid gloves must come off at this point. I'm not sure why they've stopped paying, but it doesn't matter anymore.

If they do not pay, I want to make sure that I inflict maximum damage on them even if it costs me even more money to do so. If I get a court ordered judgement, it will go on their credit report and drop their score by 150 points instantly, as well as remain on their credit report for 7 years (meaning they will unlikely be able to rent in nice areas again).

Please give me tips on what to do to tenants who aren't paying.
