I have a tenant who rents a room in my house, he is the ONLY tenant, I live in the house , we never signed an agreement, Is my tenant deemed a tenant at will ? I gave him 30 days notice to vacate the room If this tenant is the only tenant in my house, may I have him removed as a trespasser at the end of the notice period if he refused to move out ? Or do I have to go through legal proceedings to evict him?
If he did not pay rent, you can also give him a 3 day notice to pay or quit. But if you do that and he pays, then you can't evict for at least 30 days. If you have given him 30 days notice and he does not move, you will have to file an unlawful detainer lawsuit. The police will not remove him unless you have a court order. See the link below for more information.
you serve him with a proper three day notice and if not paid at the end of the three day period you bring an eviction action. you can also serve him with either a 30 day or 60 day notice depending how long he has been a tenant. hire a local landlord attorney to assist you.
