Rented a property to a relative not paying rent
04-May-2023 (In Landlord/Tenant Law)
I do have 1700 sq. ft. office in Pune. I rented that to one relative in November 2014, without any Legal Agreement. He gave me check dated 01 May 2015. We mutually decided to pay 45000/ month as rent. But he didn't paid me rent for month of March, April and May. Now he is in US and trying to avoid me or my calls. He is accepting to pay me in whatsapp chat communication. what should i do? follow up with Check Dishonor or file Trust Breach case? Thank you.
First issue legal notice terminating his lease and tenancy and also instruct him to pay the arrears of rent. If he fails to respond to your legal notice then file a suit for eviction.
