Evicting a bad tenant sounds simple — until a small paperwork mistake costs you months of rent and thousands of dollars.
In this first episode of The Kick’em Out Quick© Podcast, we break down the 10 most common eviction mistakes landlords make and explain how seemingly minor procedural errors can derail your entire case.
You’ll learn why many eviction cases aren’t lost because tenants didn’t owe rent — they’re lost because landlords miss critical legal steps.
In this episode, we cover:
• Why waiting too long to start the eviction process can cost thousands
• The difference between eviction notices (and how using the wrong one can kill your case)
• Why improper service of notice leads to instant dismissal in court
• The hidden danger of accepting partial rent
• Why “self-help evictions” can backfire legally and financially
• The documentation judges expect to see in eviction court
• Common tenant defenses that catch landlords off guard
• Why DIY evictions often end up costing more than hiring an attorney
This episode is based on the insights of Duncan Strickland, Managing Director of Kick’em Out Quick®. Kickemoutquick.com has been helping property owners navigate the eviction process for over 20 years.
Whether you own one rental property or an entire portfolio, this episode will help you avoid the procedural mistakes that delay evictions and drain your revenue.
If you’re a landlord dealing with a non-paying tenant, this is a checklist you can’t afford to miss.
