MUST-KNOW INFO FOR PROPERTY MANAGERS:

Maryland Eviction Laws

Evictions are awful - perhaps the worst task property managers must perform. If you're in the business long enough, you'll likely have to go through the eviction process at least once.

Here's a local example of a Maryland eviction: Frustration with troublesome tenants has prompted many landlords to install new locks, shut off utilities, and kick tenants' belongings to the curb. In 2012 alone, landlords locked more than 300 families out of their homes. These "self-help evictions" are illegal in Maryland - but as one Baltimore couple discovered, there are exceptions.
