You'll probably find, in your documentation, that the owner has rights that include "putting you out" but that these rights are not effectived immediately upon your missing a payment. The law will protect you for an indeterminate amount of time while you attempt to settle your account one way or the other - you cannot simply be dismissed and have that be the end of it. If you don't have copies of your documents, then you must obtain them in order to make sense of what you are responsible to do, as well as what specific rights you have. Each case, depending on location, is going to be different, and that's one of the reasons I specify the need for an attorney to work with you. I understand that finances might make it difficult to retain an attorney, but you can check with your state's Legal Aid to see if you can obtain free representation. If you cannot find that reference, call the Bar Association in your area, and they can send you to the right place. _________________ George M.

You will find all the terms and conditions mentioned in your contract. You should check it out in order to find out when the owner can ask you to leave the property. If you're unable to understand the terms and conditions of the contract, then it will be better to contact an attorney and take his opinion in this regard. Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

If you fail to pay rent or move out within the 3-5 day period on the notice, then the landlord has the right to file for eviction. You being a "leasee" have possession rights to the property. That is why the landlord must get a court order to have a sheriff evict you. The court order is called a unlawful detainer, or eviction notice. You have a set amount of time to respond to the unlawful detainer. In short, no the owner cannot just pick you up and throw you out, there are legal requirements to follow. _________________ Chris Gummerson Bay Valley Mortgage Group bayvalleymortgage.com 714-367-5125
