My mother wants to kick out a tenant, how to stop her? (lemmygrad.ml)

So my mother is a landlord, and she wants to kick out a tenant that isn't paying rent.

I asked her if she was seriously going to kick someone out to the streets, and she said that the tenant has family and they could seek help from them.

My mother threatened the tenant saying that if they don't give back the key, she would go to the civil guard.

I need some ideas about what to tell my mother to try to stop her from putting someone on the streets. Any help is appreciated.

I understand that, I suppose it depends on your relationship to your family and how much you're beholden to them for your personal safety. Since I'm an adult and live independently from them, I would absolutely feel comfortable doing this. My sister has recently become a landlord, and if I hear her say something similar to OP's mother, or if it appears that she's mistreating them I have no qualms about explicitly stating she's in the wrong and openly moving against her.

If OP is in a more delicate situation wrt their relationship with their parents, then I think there's scope for quietly (or even anonymously) getting in touch with e.g. renter's unions and asking a member to reach out the tenant. Or maybe dropping some literature through the door of the property for the tenant to read.

I think you might be right.
