My name is Krishnakumar an NRI working in UAE.I own an house in Trichur,Kerala and given it for rent since June 30 2008 for 11 months. Since I was not in station that time the rent agreement was prepared between the tenant and my sister and it's clearly mentioned in the agreement that on behalf of krishnakumar my sister is signining the agreement. I had given an authorisation letter in my sister name on 01 jun 2008 in an normal paper having all the rights to sign any rent areement.
Now I have the situation where the tenant is not paying the rent on time and we have 2 months outstanding. Further my brothers marriage is fixed for april 09 and my family want to move to my house before marraige. When we requested to vacate the tenant is very ignorant and behaving very badly. Even he is not bothered to pay the rent. He is threatening about his political contacts. Since I am away from the station, what would be the best option to vacate the tenat at the earliest. In the agreement it's clearly mentioned if two month rent is not paid tenant should vacate immediately. One more clause is that, at any stage during the agreement period for any reason, landlord has the right to request the tenant to vacate by giving one month notice. The agreement will expire on 30th May 2009.
Request your advice. Is there any special provision for the NRIs?
Thanks & Regards,
Krishnakumar
