Not getting the rent check is the worst part of being a landlord. You go through the effort of fixing up your property, posting for rent ads online, interviewing tenants, signing a lease, moving a tenant in and now it's time to get paid, but the deadbeat tenant stiffs you. What do you do now? You've got to evict that deadbeat tenant. The thing is, evictions take a long time and they are going to cost you even more money on court costs and attorney fees.
