[quote=Anonymous]Pretty rare that a pro se landlord dots all the is and crosses all the ts that are necessary to properly evict a tenant in DC. Do you have a BBL? Are you registered with RAD? Are those numbers on your lease and your court paperwork? Was the notice to quit served properly? Was it provided in both English and Spanish (regardless of whether the tenant speaks Spanish)? Your initial hearing is February, but that's just the hearing where mediation will be scheduled. If the tenant requests a jury trial, you're looking at the end of 2024 til you get your day in court, and evictions cannot be scheduled when there's rain in the forecast or particularly cold weather. The tenant could get a new round of ERAP and you'll be back in the same place to repeat next year. The people saying to offer cash for keys (cold hard cash, only after the tenant is OUT and you've changed all the locks) are speaking the truth. It's the easiest way.[/quote]
