What is a Self-Help Eviction and Is It Legal?
A self-help eviction refers to any steps taken by a landlord to evict a tenant independent of the legally permissible methods.
Our recent webinar, hosted by Krista, TurboTenant’s Senior Content Marketing Writer, dove into the most crucial legal updates for landlords in 2023. We were joined by Samantha Yadav, our Landlord Experience Specialist, and Jeanne from our legal team, who provided invaluable insights into the latest legislative changes affecting rental property management.
The session began with an overview of the importance of staying informed about legal changes in the rental industry, emphasizing laws that have recently been enacted across various states. We highlighted the significance of understanding laws not only in your own state but also in others, as they can indirectly impact your rental business.
Key Takeaways:
Throughout the webinar, we engaged with attendees through polls and Q&A sessions, addressing specific concerns and providing guidance on navigating these legal changes. We also shared resources for further research, including how to access state-specific landlord-tenant laws and the importance of direct communication with tenants to ensure compliance and foster positive landlord-tenant relationships.
For those unable to attend, a recording of the session along with the presentation deck will be sent out within two business days. We encourage all landlords to review these materials to stay informed and compliant with the latest legal requirements in rental property management.
