Understanding Eviction and the Rights of Evictees
Evictee is a term used in the context of real estate, particularly in the United States. It refers to a tenant who has been legally evicted from a rental property by a court order or through a formal eviction process.
When a landlord seeks to evict a tenant, they typically need to provide notice to the tenant and give them an opportunity to correct any violations of the lease or rental agreement. If the tenant does not respond or refuses to leave the property, the landlord can file an eviction lawsuit with the court. If the court rules in favor of the landlord, the tenant will be ordered to vacate the property by a certain date.
Once the tenant has been formally evicted, they are considered an evictee and may need to find alternative housing. In some cases, evictees may be eligible for financial assistance or other resources to help them transition to a new living situation.
