Dear OP,

Do not allow people who have never been where you want to go tell you not to go there.

Do not allow people who have never done what you want to do tell you that it cannot be done.

Do not allow broke people tell you that you cannot be rich.

90% of the people who give you advice on here have never been in such a situation

They have never been successful at what they are talking about.

Do not allow people who are tenants and yet to pay their own rent advice you

Stop taking advice from fakes, failures and frauds.

Please, HELP

Tenant A

He left with a balance of 50k with the control box of the pre-pair meter and imagine he (lawyer) went to collect the key of the apartment from the tenant and his telling me it's a bad debt, I should leave him for God. He doesn't even know where he relocated to, I was even the one that went to meet some of the boys in the area and bought few drinks for then and they told me where he relocated too

Tenant B
Had 6 months left on his tenancy agreement we took him to court, the court ruled in our favor for the tenant to pay 245k, he packed out without paying a DIME. Prior to this time, he (lawyer) assured me that the tenant will pay, saying that if doesn't pay the tenant property will be used to offset the debt owed.

In summary, =N=295,000 gone to bad debt.

Tenant C
has been owing since last year and I have a lawyer handling my property

Tenant D
Finally, I decided going forward due diligence MUST be carried out, he didn't do as instructed with Tenant D, he didn't visit his former house or his current office.

My mom is currently ill and I need money

Please, how do I handle it?

I think all these tenants ganged up against you to deal with you

You and your mum should check if you guys were tough on them

What do you mean by tough? Most tenants make house owner tough or hardened.

Real estate business is headache in Nigeria without a good lawyer not "charge & bail" lawyers or those that have not been to a court room.

Some business lessons I learnt from a house owner:

-Assemble the right team/ person to manage the house.

-Fire faster than you hire. If he doesn't fit in, let him go immediately. A trial is enough.

-Roll up your sleeves and enter the market. Know the prices or better still, get the tenants yourself.

- Pay them impromptu visit to ensure they are adhering to the signed agreement e.g the number of persons to live in the house

-Don't drag with your tenants for rent. Kill it at the early stages, If they are not a good rent paying tenants, stop it immediately.

Good morning

There is nothing you can about the bad debt, next time when letting out your property make sure the tenant information section contain the tenant details about place of work, position, guarantor at place of work. if a tenant is not ready to give you such details please don't let out your property. work on the information given, ensure it real. let your lawyer prepare a sound tenancy agreement with them in case of breach of agreement, their work place is the first point of contact.
Are you aware of the privacy law in Nigeria?

Some will give you false information

How many bad debts would you leave, you see as a landlord you need to be firm with your lawyer and tenant, don't take nonesense.

As regards, your mum, you need to go meet that tenant and let him know your mom has a son.

@ topic FIRE him, get another competent lawyer, he just collecting legal fees FREE without doing his job.
