I hope you have some sort of written agreement that permits you to evict this woman. A seventy five year old woman should be in another type of facility. Her family has obviously found some very inexpensive care (your rent vs nursing home) and left you to deal with her exasperating personality.

Why would you want your home filled with unnecesary arguments?

I am sure there are many people looking for a place to stay that could pay your rent. Place an ad and see what response you get! It might make it easier to ask this woman to leave when you know you have someone ready to fill her spot.

Good luck!

Vic

If even your husband is against you, then, man, she can really put up a fight.

The old lady shouldn't be living there if there are other places for only the elderly. she should go there.

talk to your husband...i mean, why isn't he sticking up for you?

and also...help your first roomate clean up as well. even if it was you that messed up the place.

First, you and your husband need to present a united front to your tenants. This means that you and he need to sit down quietly somewhere and talk the situation over. Yes, you need income. That does not mean you need to put up with bad behavior.

If she continues to fight and argue, this probably isn't a good fit. If she has a lease, though, you will be stuck with her for the term of the lease. If it's a month to month tenancy, you can usually cancel, in writing, at the start of the month one month in advance. This means that you need to have her notice prepared by the beginning of next month. Check your local Landlord-Tenant Act for details.

The only way you can get rid of her more quickly is if she's breaking a written agreement or violating the terms of her lease, such as by not paying on time or by sneaking a pet into a no-pet building. Your local Landlord-Tenant Act will tell you what your rights and responsibilities are.

Under no circumstances should you just tell her to leave, or try to get rid of her in the middle of the month, or violate the Landlord-Tenant Act in any way. Even if you don't have a written lease or rental agreement, certain minimum standards are enforceable in court. If your finances are as bad as you say they are, the last thing you need is a lawsuit.

I agree with what that other person said. There are special apartment communities for seniors, and that is where she needs to be. Maybe she doesn't know how to relate to younger people. Telll her that you think that she is not happy there and would be happier living somewhere where she can have friends her own age, and help her find an apartment. Then, find another roommate who is younger. Maybe that other roommate can help. She may have a friend who needs a place. Good luck!

woah, that sounds terrible. i don't know much about renting out rooms, but i think that you should ask the second lady to find another apartment.
