It depends on what you have written in your lease. Since they are already two months late you just need to give them a written notice (signed and dated) stating that if they have not paid the rent owed to you in the x amount of days then they must quit the premises. A standard notice would be 30 days but since they have not paid for two months you could probably get away with a shorter period. Look over the lease you had them sign and be sure to act accordingly to what you agreed. If you do not have a section that covers this in your standard lease be sure to create an amendum for your next renters.
As for the fridge, you will need to have it fixed. Otherwise, if the renters take you to court they will use it against you and try to make you look like a slum lord. Believe me, the courts are more often on the side of the tenant than the landlord. My family and I have rented many properties.

Here in California, you can give them a "3 days to pay or quit" notice. If they don't pay in 3 days (all money due), then you can proceed with evicting them. Be prepared to take them to court. Also, be prepared for them to take you to court over the refrigerator not working (they just might try to label you as a slum lord). If the house you are renting to them came with a fridge, you do have to fix it. How long has it been broken?

get them a 30 day notice on paper and stamped . then they will have 30 days to move.

Oh boy, sounds like your in for a rough ride. There are different laws for landlord/tenants depending on where you live.

Where I live you should have legally served them with a late rent notice twice, and hit them with the third, then sheriff's office can seal their apartment and confiscate goods in lieu of rent. But because you haven't done that, they now can complain to landlord/tenant association that they are not paying their rent as fridge does not work. Legally they can do this and a ruling will be made on how much they should be paying because they are so inconvenienced--human rights etc. ( This can take forever)! What else needs fixing? I know someone that eventually had to sell their property because they were loosing so much money as the tenants never paid their rent. (As apparently was their right ruled by landlord/tenant board)
BEWARE; there are people out there that are extremely dishonest, know the system, and bend it to their every whim.

Find out your rights--and theirs.. Now, before it's too late

Evict them. Check the laws where you live but you need to give them formal written notice to pay the rent of leave (how much notice varies). If the time for the notice runs out and they still haven't paid then file for eviction at the courthouse. After you get the eviction you'll have to meet with the sheriff and you move all their stuff to the curb.

You really should've started this sooner, like a week or so after they were late - you'll likely never see another penny from them so by waiting you lost an extra 1.5 months rent. oh well, better late than never.

Also,if the refridge is really not working yhou need to fix it, even though you are evicting them - thats the law.

Another landlord that has no business, being one......go buy a book called Tenants Rights for your state. This will explain both sides to you, and where you stand, and eliminate the guessing...........the best $15 investment either side can make.........

Do you have a lease with them? Here you can post a letter on the inside of their door saying you will lock them out and you have to give them a couple of days to pay and then you lock them out. You have to let them in for clothes, perishable food, and medicine. And they can call and call and you must go. Then I post the eviction notice. They have so long and then the sheriff will come put their stuff out on the roadside. Check your local laws and find out what you have to do and don't forget to call the police for advice. If they are working, file a small claims against them for lost rent, late fees,anything your lease says you can charge them for reletting and accelerate the lease. You will at least ruin their credit and it will go down when other apartments run credit checks. They are deadbeats. You need to find out what the laws are in your state and community and then get rid of them as fast as you can and then sue them for damages. For your next renter's get the lease from h*ll to cover you. I have the right-by the lease-to hire someone to pack up all of their possession and store them. If they do not pay all rent and monies due, I have the right to sell their stuff. A good lease covers everything that can happen so that the tenant knows what you will do if they don't, and what they can do if you don't and everything in between. Lots of luck & get nasty. They deserve it. Are you sure they didn't break the fridge on purpose or were careless or . . .send them a bill for it if you can make it look good. And send letters from now on return receipt so that you can document whatever steps you take. If you hand them a letter, ask them to sign a copy and date it. Make that case against them. They sound like professional deadbeats and will know all the tricks so go talk to several different managers at different apartment complexes. Hopefully, they will help you out with ideas. They have heard it all and have great solutions.


*so in luv with dl*
Tell them to bud out you have your own life dont they get that if they think you r harrasing them just stop renting the place and let them deal with all the problems
