Q: We had just purchased a trailer. But seller won't leave. What can I do.
The seller was very motivated to sell and everything was good in the beginning. We have the title for the trailer and the land taxes already transferred to us. Now the problem is he is moving to another state with his soon to be wife. BUT with that said he keeps pushing the move out date. At first it was last Monday then it was today and then said Saturday and when I asked to get conformation again he said well idk well see I'll try. He won't give us the keys and I only have till the end of the month since I had told my landlord I am moving already And the seller is now pulling the well it don't matter legally I have 30 to 60 days to get out. We have messages stating all the times he has pushed the dates back. And these are all dates that he has set to start with. But I have to start moving and already called utilities to be changed Monday. But he won't leave now.
A: You will have to file an eviction case to get him out. An eviction can take a month or more. There is no way to speed up the court process. You can also claim the cost of finding alternate living space because he failed to leave. Use the Find a Lawyer tab to retain a local attorney to review the facts and advise you of your options.
