personal property

Are you being evicted? Did your landlord say you must leave? If so, there are things you should know. Landlords are not above the law. In order to evict someone, they must follow the law.

What is an Order of Restitution? 

If you were evicted or your landlord claims you abandoned your rental unit, it may be difficult to get back any property you left behind. The landlord may even be able to charge moving and storage fees.

If you will be away from your rental unit for a long period of time, it is a good idea to tell your landlord. If you do not tell the landlord, they may assume you moved and abandoned the unit. Anything left in the unit could then be considered abandoned as well. Getting back any personal property you left behind may be difficult.
