1st of all, do you guys are on any tenant agreement or not?

No worries. Tell them if they are not going to pay, their deposit will be forfeited, according to the our standard tenant agreement which I read last week. Meaning when they move out, their deposit couldn't get back also, due to during rental period, they didn't fulfill the term & condition. But usually late payment or didn't pay, owner are very flexible with it and do not want to threaten with deposit.

There is other way by telling them that if they don't really co-operate with you throughout the rental period, you won't renew their tenant agreement with them and this will bring problem for them and their business

If it is under your name for the electricity bill, why not? But I am unsure of this

After 2 months if still don't want to move, legal action can be taken. Moreover, you can log a police report saying illegal tenant?

ermm.. if wanna follow law, let's do it.

Give them an official letter to inform them to pay all outstanding rent within let's say 14 days. In the letter, tell them what will happen if they don't (for instance, cut water & electricity). So if they wanna sue u then, no choice cos you have properly inform them and given them sufficient notice.

On the other hand, you need any "numbers" of those ex- ah long whom still has a bunch of gangs to "execute on his instructions wink.gif???

What for need Ah-Long to involve? doh.gif
Are you crazy a not? If people life involved, you in trouble. If property damage involve, the landlord will be the 1 who suffer
