I’m not sure what other options may be open to you. I would say whatever route you choose to go down, having a lawyer to guide you through it would be the best help for you. I wouldn’t want to go through the eviction process myself without a lawyer’s advice, God forbid you miss crossing a t or dotting an i and it resets you back to square one. And it sounds like you’re dealing with someone who would take full advantage of any missteps you may make. I feel bad for you and wish I could come up with some kind of silver bullet that would resolve the situation for you.

He’s grown accustomed to living off from you and is in denial about that gravy train coming to an end. That’s my guess anyway. His motivation doesn’t really matter to you, except where it comes to motivating him to vacate.

Sorry you are in this situation. Just my two cents...I wouldn't look at a cash for keys situation as a bribe, more like you paying for your own piece of mind.

Well if he doesn't respond to the Notice to Quit then you can file the eviction paperwork with the courts. After you serve the notice he might be more willing to discuss things like an adult. It may be better to wait until he gets the notice to work out some sort of agreement? This is where hiring a lawyer would be crucial.

Again sorry you're in this situation. If I was in your shoes I would be seeing red at this point. Don't stoop to his level though. If you do something like move his stuff it can really mess up the eviction process. I'd be more worried about a judge ruling against me than a civil suit.

No problem. Sometimes people really just suck and will take advantage of whatever they can.

Good luck seeking out a lawyer tomorrow and with getting him out. You'll have your home back soon!
