Warning for Landlords and Tenants: Eviction in 19 Days Without Legal Action
The issue of eviction and enforcement proceedings in rental disputes was brought to light in a recent case in Şişli. A tenant who had been living in a house for many years refused to vacate the property despite signing an eviction notice. The landlord, faced with this situation, took legal action to initiate eviction and enforcement proceedings.
According to the landlord’s lawyer, Gizem Gonce, the tenant had declared that he would not leave the house and was not paying rent regularly. Despite the eviction notice being served promptly, the tenant remained adamant about staying in the property.
As a result, enforcement proceedings requesting eviction and seizure were started on August 2, 2024. The tenant was served with a notice of eviction on August 10, 2024, but did not object within the specified 7-day period. Subsequently, the enforcement proceedings were finalized, leading to the seizure of the tenant’s assets.
Finally, on August 20, 2024, exactly 10 days after the notification, the tenant vacated the house. The entire process was described as fast and cost-effective, with no need for mediation. It was emphasized that eviction cases can be resolved swiftly, without incurring significant expenses and with minimal involvement from the parties involved.
The case serves as a reminder that eviction undertakings should be taken seriously, and enforcement proceedings must be carried out promptly to ensure a timely resolution. In situations where tenants refuse to comply with eviction notices, landlords have the right to take legal action to protect their rights and regain possession of their properties.
