Exactly - I went through a tenant eviction last year and the tenant was being advised by the local Housing Authority to sit tight as the process takes so long and costs money that they felt I might not bother.
This was an easy way out for the Authority as while the people lived in my house they were homed and therefore the Authority had to do nothing for them. Once they were evicted then they were on the emergency homeless list with an onus on the Authority to find them somewhere. All the while there were plenty of other places the tenants could have gone to but they just made excuses and refused anywhere offered to them. The fact Govt Agencies encourage this type of behaviour is despicable because it has no regard for the property owner but then of course he is seen as the mega rich landlord with loads of properties to whom a few months with no rent is no big issue.
Thankfully my problem tenants have now gone and replaced with excellent ones.
