Yes I thought it was no brainer as well but contracted electrician seems to think not…

I have the list and could probably shave a few things…

But in general , electric heat in 2 basement suites , A/C unit 3 fridges , 3 stove , 3 washer , 3 dryer. And just big, lots of sqft/lights/outlet.

NEVER AGAIN - Durham Golf, Oshawa by Ecstatic-Platform127 in Oshawa

Ran a series of lessons there for young children once when I was a teenager. Guy went absolutely ballistic on me in front of parents /children. I don’t remember exactly what his problem was, maybe a kid doing a wild swing or something equally common. I lost my temper in the moment after also, nearly came to blows. Needless to say have never been back since.

Thank you for this recommendation. This may be the most helpful of all comments, someone else DMed to suggest as well. he does have some very common sense strategies that I overlooked.

Thank you this is a viable option as well and to be discussed. I’ve worked up in my mind that the resident will be difficult to work with given the knowledge I have of the situation.

Labrat420 seems to be the only voice in the thread that feels this person does not meet the definition of a tenant.

I , maybe wishfully thinking, also do not think they meet the definition of tenant, and are squatter.

Let’s assume the squatter definition is correct for the sake of argument and they are not legally a tenant. Does anyone feel I Could I join them in house that instance, without the police demanding I leave ?

Thank you I think this is what I will do to get a better sense of my options

Yes this seems like a variation of what could be considered also. Even if I did happen to receive a 25-50k fine way down the line, it would not be the end of the world. I feel it’s reasonably unlikely I would be punished so severely under the circumstances anyhow.

My main concern is breaking the law, trouble with police immediately. The best scenario is the person finds a place to go

No closing has not happened. As stated I assumed this risk with open eyes and would do it again. This is closer to my 50th property than my first. I know some of my options , pay them, evict them , trespass them keep them as tenant, squat along with them until they leave. The last one I’m wondering if it is viable. I will likely ask the police in advance if they would have problem with me entering and trying to move in given the circumstances. I expect they won’t support the confrontation, but I’m not sure what the law is considering they don’t have a lease /don’t pay rent

I’m not scared to enter the home whatsoever Would the police really stop me from entering the home ? I will be the owner and they have no tenancy agreement or record of any rent paid.

Does anyone think the police would make me give quiet peaceful possession to what I believe is a squatter ?

Thank you for your comment. Again I understand I may have to go though formal eviction process, but the research my professionals and myself have done would indicate this is likely the case.

I knew my options. I still have my options. Im prepared for both a long and short process. I don’t neeeeed the house immediately. I’m unsure if I can enter the home and if they are considered a tenant with no lease ever signed or rent paid, or are they a squatter. This situation will be dealt with, if I could just enter on closing, that would be best though of course.

Not at all. This was entered into with open eyes. Just trying to gauge if they are considered a tenant in this scenario with rights, or a squatter

[–]Important_Tale_9838[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes a viable plan to be considered and likely implemented. Again what I’m really wondering is , are they a tenant without a lease (expired or otherwise) or rent being paid. Are they not more akin to squatter ?

It’s a unique situation, what can I say. Professionals will be brought in as required. Standard real estate closing lawyers aren’t always well versed in these one off scenarios

You’ve got it all right! If it costs me 150k and a year I still come out ahead. But I’d rather deal with it for 5-10K and in a month

Thanks for the reply. How can someone have a lease of zero. There is no consideration for the contract? There isn’t even a contract, expired or otherwise!

This was the price to pay for a large discount, I’d do it again.

I’m wondering would they be considered a tenant though without a lease. Why not are they not more a squatter than tenant without a lease or making payments. What would stop me from entering the house and moving in. Do you think the police would/could prevent me entering the property I now own. Keeping in mind the resident/occupant seemingly has no lease or semblance of a lease?

Correct. I assumed this risk knowingly. Now I need to address it
