Post: tenant not paying rent first month

Posted by kb on 9/17/07

We purchased a new home in GA and just got a tenant from a
property management company. The first month's rent was due
and the check bounced. It does not appear that the tenant
will pay the rent or ever intended to do so. Rather than
going through a long eviction process I plan to change the
locks and put their furniture in storage. I realize this is
not the correct procedure but what they are doing is a
criminal act. There are no children involved. Your
thoughts please...
Thanks!
