Eviction Pricing02 May
We base our pricing on three phases.
- First phase – Review lease, determine best action for your resident(s), send PROPER notice, negotiate with resident(s)
- Second phase – File eviction in person at the correct JP court house.
- Third phase – Attend court for owner
There is actually a fourth phase that other companies and individuals are familiar with, but we have been fortunate enough in twenty plus years of evictions to have NEVER had to do it.
The fourth phase is called a writ of possession. Once a person attends court and wins for the owner a resident is given “x” amount of days to vacate the premises depending on the judge’s view of The Texas Property Code. I’ve witnessed some judges saying five days and others say seven. Bottom line it’s in the judges hands. Once that time frame has passed the constable then issues a 24 hour notice and YOU are responsible for paying for movers to have the items removed from the property.
Ask yourself this. Do you want to have to go through this phase. Some constables require that you provide a locksmith, four movers and you must have all these people their when the constable shows up. Keep in mind that the writ of possession is an additional charge that the court charges you. Paying for the eviction court cost DOES not include the writ of possession. THAT’s EXTRA as well as the movers, the locksmith etc.
