Where does an eviction begin?
Now that you know how AutoEvict will benefit you, it is essential to understand how the eviction process works. Here is an overview of what to expect. For a full understanding and step-by-step explanation, feel free to read more on Understand Evictions.
When a tenant is in breach of the lease agreement, for example, by not paying their rent or failing to maintain the rental property, you (the property owner) may put the tenant on terms by sending them a Letter of Demand.
If the tenant fails to adhere to the LOD, you will need to jump through a few legal hoops to evict the problematic tenant. First off, you need to get a court order that officially says it’s time for the problematic tenants to pack their bags and leave. To get that order, property owners have to follow the rules laid out in the Prevention of Illegal Eviction and Unlawful Occupation of Land Act, 1998 (Act No. 19 of 1998). This law is tied to Section 26 of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, Act 108 of 1996, which basically says the court has to take into account the personal circumstances of those illegal occupants. They want to make sure the court’s decision is not just fair but also reasonable.
Now, here’s the kicker. Eviction applications can get pretty technical, so in most cases, you’re going to want a lawyer to handle the nitty-gritty stuff. That’s where AutoEvict comes in. We’ve got the backing of one of South Africa’s most trusted law firms when it comes to evictions. With AutoEvict, you can generate all the paperwork you need for an eviction order in a user-friendly, step-by-step process. It’s like having a legal expert by your side, making sure everything is done right.
Please keep in mind that the AutoEvict process focuses only on residential evictions and is limited to the Magistrates Courts, where you will personally attend to Court and to the office of the Sheriffs to obtain the eviction order you need. But don’t fear, we have exceptional lawyers on stand-by, should you require additional assistance.
