HOw would this be perjury? But can OP charge rent? |
OP cannot charge rent before she owns the property. |
Rent?!?! Seriously. Why doesn’t OP pay up first. |

OP is in MD. Go file the papers today. Your soonest court date will be 6 weeks from now, and by then you'll probalby own it. In the meantime, the tenants will get a notice from the Sheriff about the court date, and that may at least help them see you're serious.
Then, each month rent is missed, file a new case with the court. They all take so logn that you'll have a few at various stages of the process. If the tenant pays nothing, you're looking at 12 weeks to get the sheriff to evict (after court judgement and opportunity to pay.. total is about 12 weeks). If they pay fro the month owed in _that case_, it stops it and on to the next month and the next case. Once you get 3 cases in your favor in 12 months, you can proceed to eviction without a new case. Expect 4-6 weeks from teh time you have the order to when the Sheriff can actually show up. Professional deadbeat tenants know this and work the system. |
OP a lot of this is terrible advice. If it is a real issue get a lawyer. |
When you file to evict you have to assert ownership of the property which OP does not have.. "1. I, (name, address, and phone #)_____________________________________________________________________, swear or affirm, under penalties of perjury, that I have knowledge of the facts set forth in this Complaint and that I am: Plaintiff, or Plaintiff’s attorney, or Plaintiff’s agent authorized to make this verification and my relationship to Plaintiff is (explain, and if Plaintiff is a corporation, include your title)_____________________________________________________________________. 2. Plaintiff is the Landlord or Owner, or has been appointed Personal Representative of the Estate in case no. _______ and is authorized to take possession of the property, or is not the Landlord, Owner, or Personal Representative but has the right to demand possession because (explain)__________________________________________________________. " https://www.dccourts.gov/sites/default/files/pdf-forms/Form1B_ComplaintForNoticeOrOtherGrounds.pdf By the second question, OP would have perjured themselves |
The OP is going to have to fill out paperwork in a court of law stating that they are the owner -- and in every single court house in America, at the very bottom of that statement, they'll have to sign in the line that states that what they wrote is the truth, under penalty of law, and then it will lists what the penalties are for perjury... and you want the OP to just... take a chance in doing that? How ethical of you. |
| If you are willing to offer them cash to vacate, you can get them out. Pony up a few grand and they will go. |

Just file multiple cases in different courts—they don’t talk to each other. Hell, spell the defendants’ names wrong. If you keep
