However, just as much as the law protects a tenant&#8217;s rights, it also puts a great responsibility on their shoulders. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Every province in Pakistan has certain grounds and policies which enable a landlord to terminate a rental agreement. One thing shared by rental laws across the country is that no court allows the violation of tenancy laws and tenants have the legal right to file a petition against illegal eviction. So, this blog is written to give you a better understanding of the situations when a landlord can legally evict a tenant and terminate the rental lease.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Situations When a Landlord Can Rightfully Evict a Tenant<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There have been cases where a tenant\u2019s behaviour and personal choices have irritated landlords beyond measure. Knowing that a lodger doesn&#8217;t abide by a particular clause in the agreement or is involved in some downright illegal activities are some cases that make it mandatory for a landlord to evict them.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, having a different opinion on some issues, cooking something with a strange smell, or not inviting the landlord to a party and other similar reasons are not justified to evict someone. It takes patience to resolve such matters and acknowledging the fact that people can have dissimilar interests should be at the top of every landlord\u2019s mind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That being said, homeowners can only issue an eviction notice and terminate a rental lease when there are lawful reasons behind it. Without further ado, here&#8217;s a list of the situations when a landlord can rightfully evict a tenant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Violation\"><strong>Violation of Property Rules&nbsp;<\/strong><br><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/property-rule-book-281119-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"Do not break property laws\" class=\"wp-image-74754\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/property-rule-book-281119-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/property-rule-book-281119-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/property-rule-book-281119-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/property-rule-book-281119-640x400.jpg 640w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/property-rule-book-281119.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Read the owner&#8217;s property rule book properly before you sign the rental agreement!  <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>It goes without saying that when a tenant signs a rental lease, they agree to abide by the rules and regulations mentioned in the agreement for as long as they are using the property. So, if they breach the terms of the lease they have signed, landlords reserve the right to take proper action against them, including filing a case for eviction and terminating the rental agreement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ethically speaking, landlords are advised to issue a notice that asks the tenants to quit before signing an eviction \u2013 or they can knock on the court\u2019s door and seek justice. Some common causes of lease violation that count as situations when a landlord can rightfully evict a tenant are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Subletting<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>All adult tenants using the rental property should be registered as tenants, or the landlord should be aware of every individual using their property. Subletting is an act of using someone\u2019s property without their consent, and it is quite common to see tenants bringing other rent participants to share the rent charges. However, there&#8217;s no harm in doing so, but the landlord should agree to it. In cases where homeowners discover unregistered\/unlisted people living in the unit, they can file for lease termination.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Breaching Pet Policy<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Just like tenants are not allowed to bring a human being into the landlord&#8217;s property without their consent, they cannot bring in a pet \u2013 especially when the property owner has strict policies for bringing pets into their rental unit. If a tenant surprises the landlord with a pet in a no-pet policy, they shouldn\u2019t be surprised to receive an eviction notice at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Breaking Schedule<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>This rule applies to the properties that have enter\/exit schedules. Some homeowners do not give an extra pair of entrance keys to tenants and like to have that control in their hands. So, if the schedule is already mentioned in the lease agreement, tenants are obliged to obey it under any circumstances. They can, however, ask for a few exemptions and bring it to the landlord&#8217;s attention while mentioning those exclusions in the agreement.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tenants often think that their rental agreement will save the day \u2013 it is true in some cases where the agreement is thoroughly drafted. While in other cases, a rental lease often falls short by not providing enough evidence to reverse the termination. To avoid these <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/common-property-disputes-resolution.html\" target=\"_blank\">common causes of property disputes<\/a>, renters are advised to read the whole agreement carefully. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Illegal-Use-of-Property\"><strong>Illegal Use of Property <\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/landlord-tenant-law-28112019-c-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"Legal or illegal business are not allowed on residential units\" class=\"wp-image-74752\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/landlord-tenant-law-28112019-c-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/landlord-tenant-law-28112019-c-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/landlord-tenant-law-28112019-c-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/landlord-tenant-law-28112019-c-640x400.jpg 640w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/landlord-tenant-law-28112019-c.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Illegal use of the rental property is against landlord-tenant law <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides unlawful uses of the property, any use that isn&#8217;t spelt out in the landlord-tenant law or in the rental agreement can lead homeowners to issue an eviction notice and terminate the rental lease. No landlord appreciates having their property involved in illegal activities, and if they find out about any such activities, they can rightfully evict the tenant. So, it doesn\u2019t matter if the property is being used for some purpose that the landlord isn\u2019t aware of or whether the property is being used for unlawful activities, they have the right to file for eviction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A residential unit is only zoned for residential purposes, and any activity beyond it will not be tolerated. If a tenant decides to use the property for commercial purposes, they are using it illegally and unlawfully. A small example here is of a tenant who decides to run a catering business or a salon on a residential property. Doing so not only breaches the rental lease but also makes the resident accountable for breaking zoning laws.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Property-Damage\"><strong>Major Concerns &amp; Property Damage <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/property-damage-28112019-b-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"Take care of landlord's personal property as your own\" class=\"wp-image-74757\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/property-damage-28112019-b-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/property-damage-28112019-b-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/property-damage-28112019-b-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/property-damage-28112019-b-640x400.jpg 640w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/property-damage-28112019-b.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>No landlord will be happy to see their precious belongings floating in overflowing water <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If a property is prone to life-threatening situations or is in a flood zone, the safety concerns arising must be resolved. However, it cannot be done with people living\/using the unit, and a landlord has the right to evict a tenant or terminate the lease in this case. In such situations, property owners are abiding by the law to provide a &#8220;notice to quit&#8221; to tenants. Please note the notification should be issued at least three months prior to the eviction date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, if a tenant does not take care of the rental property, this can also result in eviction. Let&#8217;s say a tenant has the habit of forgetting to turn off faucets and leaving the house without double-checking. This forgetful habit can result in severe damage, and it might take a toll on the property owner&#8217;s pocket. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tenants can, however, offer to pay for the loss or fix it themselves. Ensuring cleanliness and keeping the property in good condition, ideally in the same condition as it was while being handed over, is one of the major <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/responsibilities-good-tenant.html\" target=\"_blank\">responsibilities of a tenant<\/a>. Failure to do so can result in the termination of the rental contract.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Disputes\"><strong>Disputes over Rent Charges&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><br><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/rent-charges-28112019-d-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"Do not delay rent charges \" class=\"wp-image-74758\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/rent-charges-28112019-d-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/rent-charges-28112019-d-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/rent-charges-28112019-d-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/rent-charges-28112019-d-640x400.jpg 640w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/rent-charges-28112019-d.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Pay your rent on time to avoid eviction! <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Disagreement over rent charges can occur in two situations: firstly, when the tenants have a habit of paying late, and secondly, they refuse to pay the legal rent increase. To begin with, it is a landlord\u2019s right to receive monthly rent on time, and they can terminate a lease over unacceptable delays in receiving rent. Furthermore, in most provinces of Pakistan, landlords have the legal freedom to increase rent by a certain percentage annually. So, if the rent increment percentage was mentioned in the rental lease and tenants have signed it, landlords can rightfully evict them on their refusal to pay the revised rent.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, renters often take undue advantage of soft behaviour, and they go with the attitude of \u201clittle mistakes won\u2019t matter\u201d since the entire process hinges on a proper eviction notice being served to the tenants explaining the lease termination. Obviously, no landlord is going to mention a petty scenario such as, \u201cfor wasting water,\u201d \u201cfor breaking my flower pot,\u201d or \u201cfor not cleaning the apartment often\u201d \u2013 tenants, however, should be aware of the fact that no property owner would be excited to hand their piece of property to someone who is not going to treat it as their own.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This brings us to the end of our blog on situations when a landlord can legally evict a tenant.
