How do I evict a friend?

I know I need to write an eviction notice, blah blah but I have know idea what to say. His rent is month to month so I’m not worried about the legal ramifications, I just don’t know what to tell him.

I have known this person for many years then last year just after moving into our still unfinished house. He asked to be our land mate living in his tiny home. We really needed the help financially. So far it has not really been much of a help because in many ways he is burden as much as he helps. On top of this, our relationship in general has become strained as our energy’s do not mesh well.

Anyhoo. My sister is now in need of a space to live and will help alleviate the financial hardships while also being willing to help with other family matters.

So it’s time to say goodbye. I have been looking at templates on the internet in regards to what to say and none seem to fit the criteria for asking him to leave nor the time we would like to allow him to find a new space. (We were going to give him 4 to 6 months.) Oh and he doesn’t pay his rent constantly. He needs to be asked to or he pays on a random day not agreed upon. This is exacerbates my aggravation because his rent is way under market value in our area. So for a grown man to not be able to fork over 300 bucks in a timely manner isn’t worth my time, to harass him.

Until this time I didn’t feel like a landlord per say. I refer to him as my land mate not tenant. Now trying to word the eviction really making me feel like a complete dick.

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...

Question With Tricon "Pending ID".....

My wife and i, along with 2 other peopl applied to rent a house, and our application says "Approved, Pending ID". Anyone else know what that means? Do we pretty much have the place or are we missing something? submitted by /u/Itskrueger [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1orixqj/question_with_tricon_pending_id/

Making offers on houses not listed for sale.

I want to buy a home for retirement. I am looking at lots of options, mostly focusing on the locations that appeal to me. I see lots of Zillow estimates of homes that look like great deals to me. Are these estimates accurate, even though similar houses in the same area that are for sale are usually priced much higher? If so, is it realistic for me to try to make offers to owners that do not have their homes listed? Would a realtor even consider helping me do this? Or, do these values indicate that the houses listed for sale are overpriced, and I should just lowball until someone accepts? Are houses today tending to sell far below list prices, or ??? submitted by /u/chewybrian [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1o4mcon/making_offers_on_houses_not_listed_for_sale/
