Eviction

Eviction is the process of forcing a tenant or homeowner to move out of a property, usually for failure to pay rent, mortgage or property taxes,(the latter two resulting from foreclosure) or for breaking the rules the landlord, homeowners association or municipality has enacted upon said property. Eviction can take a long time and sometimes is only done as a last resort.
