If i have * unauthorized guest but i evict two of them and let the other2 stay
Sure, I can help. In which location is the property located? This is important as eviction laws can vary by jurisdiction.
Michigan
Under Michigan law, unauthorized guests can be considered trespassers. You can evict them by:
- Giving a notice to quit
- Starting an eviction lawsuit if they don't move out
- Getting a court order
Do you need guidance on any of these steps?
Do i have to evict all tenants that are unauthorized occupants or can i just evict some
In Michigan, it's your decision as a landlord. You can evict only some unauthorized occupants while allowing others to stay. However, consider potential legal complications, such as claims of discrimination.
