Worcester Wed Sep 12: Meet the Sheriffs, Tenant Selection and Service

Part I

Who would you call if you had to give a tenant an eviction notice? One option would be to call the Worcester County Sheriff. We'll be talking about civil process (meaning, eviction notices) and all that this entails. We'll hear stories of evictions they've managed, learn why we should hire professionals instead of doing it ourselves, and then learn how to do it ourselves anyway if we want. Make the acquaintance before you need to hire them. This is a rare opportunity to learn from experienced county officials. This presentation will be given by Captain Amy Cross, Deputy Sarah Kontaxi, Deputy Tiphanie Gelinas, Deputy Kevin Derry and Deputy Steven Trottier.

Part II

How do you pick the right tenants, avoid the wrong tenants (not the same thing), and make them happy so they stick around? Norm Gadoury of Gadoury Homes LLC will share with us his approach to tenants and how it yields his business unusually low turnover. Purchase your ticket in just a few clicks! 

Have you seen our Leave Stuff, Take Stuff Table?

Market your business, pick up handouts, give away an old doorknob. Everything goes on our first-come, first-served display table at all our events. Please bring business cards, brochures, coupons. And feel free to pick up your own uncollected marketing materials at the end. Everything not claimed end-of-night may be chucked.
