⚖️🏛️ Last step before court — 📝🚪filing a Summary Ejectment at the courthouse

Today I’m taking my last Summary Ejectment serve to the county courthouse. This is the final step to officially get a court date and move forward with an eviction case against a tenant who hasn’t paid their rent.

Once filed, the process plays out in three possible ways:

💵 The tenant pays their delinquent account in full and stays in the home.

🚚 The tenant vacates voluntarily before the hearing.

🚔 If they refuse to leave and don’t pay, we take it to court. If the magistrate rules in our favor, we then file for a Writ of Possession, where the police forcibly remove the tenant and we lock them out of the property.

💡 Why this step matters:

Without filing at the courthouse, there’s no court date and no legal grounds for eviction.

It protects the homeowner’s rights while ensuring tenants are given their legal opportunity to respond.

It keeps everything in line with North Carolina law — professional, documented, and enforceable.

This is where all the notices, deadlines, and paperwork lead. Filing the ejectment gets us in front of the judge and one step closer to resolving the case.

Another day, another property to protect, another homeowner represented the right way.

Let’s Get to Work! Let’s Go! 💪
