To address a tenant holding over after their lease has expired, I start by reviewing the lease for any holdover provisions and penalties. The next step is to send a 146 notice via recorded delivery, clearly outlining the breach and required actions, while ensuring all communications are documented. If the tenant remains uncooperative, I consider taking legal action, which could involve initiating the CRAR process to recover outstanding rent, supported by the documented evidence of all previous steps.

La diferencia principal en el enfoque estriba en la relación con el inquilino durante todo el contrato. En el caso de producirse una renovación (aunque aun no se tengan cerrados todos los detalles) lo más eficiente es continuar con las mismas condiciones que las actuales. En el caso de que se tenga que marchar el inquilino, aplicar las penalizaciones pactadas en el contrato es la forma más correcta a nivel legal. Siempre que previamente, con la antelación que marque el propio contrato se le ha notificado al inquilino la fecha límite, las penalizaciones y las posibles consecuencias legales de su tardanza en abandonar el inmueble.

Comunicación directa: Habla con el inquilino para entender la causa del retraso. A veces, un simple diálogo puede resolver el problema. Sé firme pero comprensivo. Revisar el contrato: Consulta las cláusulas del contrato relacionadas con el incumplimiento. Evalúa las penalizaciones acordadas y los derechos que tienes como propietario. Acciones legales: Si el inquilino sigue sin cumplir, busca apoyo legal. Procedimientos de desalojo pueden ser necesarios, pero asegúrate de seguir los requisitos legales locales. Prevención futura: Considera reforzar las cláusulas de salida en futuros contratos para evitar retrasos en la desocupación.
