My question involves an eviction in the state of: new york. I rent from a management company and have a lease in my name for my appt. last year a friend was having problems where she was living and asked me if I could put her up for a few weeks whilst she looks for a new appt. I agreed. At first she would give me small amounts of money every week or so as a form of rent. Rent cable and electric averages about $1500 a month. So $70-$80 every now and then really doesn't help out at all. Electric bill doubled after she moved in .
I have repeatedly told her to move and have heard every reply in the book. But somehow she somehow can't find an appt. it's now over a year later and I haven't had a penny in months. Last payment was $50 which went on the laundry card. Which she then used to launder mine and her clothes
She now has mail coming to my appt. what is the best way to get her out. Her sister lives near and I have told her to move back in with her. Which she refuses to do as she allegedly doesn't get on with sisters husband. I told her tonite that if she doesn't start moving her stuff out then I am going to start taking her stuff to her sisters and leaving it with her. Am I allowed to do this.
I am at my wits end
She is living practically rent free and 80% of the stuff in appt is hers
