NRPM holds the security deposit and accounts for it on your owner statement. Upon move out, we deduct all costs that are considered "beyond normal wear and tear" from the security deposit.

If rent is not received on or before the 5th of the month, we mail a three day letter to vacate notifying the tenant that payment must be made promptly.

For an uncontested eviction, the process from beginning to end will usually take about 30 days. The court costs are paid initially by the owner and charged back to the tenant. NRPM does not charge any fees for their eviction services unless it proceeds past the normal Justice of the Peace Court. You pay only court costs and attorney fees if required.
