If you have a real problem tenant who is damaging your property or may be threatening you or other tenants residing in the same property you do not have to go through the 14 day eviction process. You can immediately serve them a 24 hour eviction notice.
If they don’t vacate within the 24 hour period you can complete the old process of going through the courts, or the much speedier process of using the RTDRS. Just make sure you make them aware you issued a 24 hour eviction so you receive a speedier hearing due to the severity of the issue!

I UNDERSTAND U HAVE VERY INFORMATIVE PROCEDURE – BUT DO YOU PERSONALLY HANDLE THE EVICTION? IF YOU DO – WHAT ARE YOUR CHARGES?
THANKS

Hi Rita,
I don’t personally do the evictions for people, but I do consult for people who need guidance. If you require someone to take it all the way through from filing to the courts, there are several companies available to help you.
In Calgary, I have dealt with Foster and Co quite successfully there number is 403-259-0029. If you are in Edmonton or Northern Alberta, you can talk to Associated Eviction at 780-455-1101.
These services start at approximately $800 and depending on how difficult the eviction or how long it drags out it can be quite a bit more.
If you want to do the eviction yourself, I provide a guide with a detailed walk through of the entire process. The guide walks you through all the steps of an eviction and “demystifies” the process. It’s available for $37.95 and you can find more information about it here, http://www.albertaeviction.com/eviction-guide/. With the purchase I’ll also provide email support for any questions you have.
If you need a little more guidance, I also charge $100 per hour for consultations about evictions and although I am not a lawyer, I can help provide strategies and answers to the majority of the questions out there.
Or if you have simple questions, leave them on this site and I typically respond within 24 to 48 hours and the questions often help other landlords (or tenants) with similar problems.
Regards,
Bill
