The eviction process in Missouri, commonly takes 6 to 8 weeks, including the time for judgements and getting the constable lock out to occur. We begin the eviction process on or about the 5th of the month by using a local Real Estate Attorney. When the prescribed time has expired and the tenants have still not met their obligations we facilitate the filing of the appropriate paperwork (Affidavit of Complaint, Order for Summary Eviction, Instructions to the Constable etc.) with the Court and Constables office.

Being a landlord is a 'business'. With any business or investment there comes with it a certain amount of risk. The most realistic answer to the question is that you "can't be sure" of anything. However, you can take the necessary steps to reduce your risk by using a property manager that has a comprehensive screening process, executes a solid lease agreement and checks on the tenant periodically. A relatively small percentage of people cause major amounts of damage to a property. There is also a small percentage of tenants that will go out of their way to improve the property. Most people fall in the middle. There are no guarantees in this business. Your best protection is to be financially prepared in the event of a vacancy, damage and/or major repair and to maintain adequate landlord insurance and two months reserves at all times.

We will attempt to collect a debt for 30 days after the end of tenancy. If no agreement is reached the file will be sent to a collection agency. Our office does not pursue it further after that and it is always recommended that you pursue legal advice from a licensed attorney.

Your property will rent faster and demand a higher rent value if it is clean and in good condition. This means the interior and exterior should be free of all personal effects, well maintained and clean. Carpets must be professionally cleaned prior to a tenant accepting possession. Flooring and walls in good repair. The house must be in habitable condition in accordance with Missouri Revised Statutes and all essential services operating in good condition.

If you are not currently involved with a licensed management firm we can start immediately. Call today to set up an appointment. When we begin advertising, the property must be ready for an approved applicant to take possession.
