Unwelcomed visitors
 
Long story short, do I have the right to ask a guest to leave my properly if another member of my family invited them in? In this case, assume I am the legal owner of the property.
Would my brother inviting him into the house change anything?
If he doesn't want to leave, can I call the police for trespassing? or can he say he was an invited guest?

Long story:
My brother invited this "friend" into the house and he (the "friend) had been bumming off the place for the past week.
Today I found out he (the friend) somehow got access to the passcode to enter the house. (I use a passcode door lock for the front door. Different members of the house has a different passcode.)
I also notice he (the friend) asked someone to come over and did something on the side of the house. Some kind of trade.
He was invited in by my brother.
I deemed that he has over stayed his welcome and wants him to leave.
I just asked my brother to ask him to leave by end of the day.
If he refuses to leave, and I call the police, can he say that he was invited in by my brother and continue bumming?
If I am the legal owner of the property, what steps can I take to make sure he guy leaves?

And if it matters, I copied down the license plate of the car that came by to do the "trade".

Lots of vague comments and it sounds like it delves deep into the RTA which is a civil issue.

You need to explain the living situation better, as it sounds like there are multiple people living there. If your brother is living there as a tenant/resident, he is allowed to invite guests over.

Before you take legal action, the real issue is with your brother.

Step 1 is to change the code.

is your brother anywhere on the deed to the house? If yes you have a problem
If no, you have all the right to say who and who doesnt come to your house

You need to tell your brother to smarten the fuck up.

If your brother pays rent to you, but does not have a separate bathroom and kitchen for his portion of the house, then it wouldn't fall under the RTA. Sometimes you just have to force someone to leave.

And what part of the Lower Mainland do you live in? Does it rhyme with "curry"? :troll:

Bath Tussue 03-24-2015 03:28 PM

Pass code was changed the moment I found out the guy has it.

My brother is not on the deed of the house.

My whole family lives in the house. My brother is not renting a room. So this shouldn't be an RTA issue.
The parents are on vacation, that's why only my brother and I.

As for my brother, he will be given a very stern talk.

I don't live in Surrey.

sho_bc, the situation is like this:
- Family home
- Parents on vacation
- Brother invites "friends" over for a few days because "friend" has some issue with his place.
- A few days became more than a week.
- Today I noticed "friend" has the passcode to enter the house. I asked my brother and he said he didn't give out the code. That the "friend" saw him punching in the code and remembered it. I changed the code the moment I found out about it.
- I noticed the "friend" does something shady beside the house today, so I decided enough is enough.
- I asked my brother to ask the "friend" to leave by end of day.
- I am considering my options if the guy refuse to leave.


And this is the story I was given on why the "friend" has to stay over:
- pest infestation.
- looking for a new place to move to.

Call your parents and tell them what's happenibg. The threat of parents coming home and being furious should help get that friend out

fliptuner 03-24-2015 04:36 PM

"You've worn out your welcome, time to go."

You and your brother aren't his dada.

Just my opinion, but you sound like you are scared of your brother or something. Like a pussy. Right from the get go, you see sketchy things, first reaction should be, tell the individual to leave and get lost. Your home is not a hotel.

That person could be using your home to deal drugs or anything sketchy, and you could be on the hook if something goes sour.

T4RAWR 03-24-2015 05:24 PM

tell him to get the fuck out.

T4RAWR 03-24-2015 05:24 PM

and dont come back

I don't like to cause a scene. If the situation can be resolved peacefully, I will take that route first.
As a guest of my brother, I will give my brother the courtesy of asking his guest to leave. If my brother doesn't cooperate, that's when I confront the guy. If that doesn't work, that's when I call the cops. And that is why I created this thread. I wanted to know if in the worse case scenario where the guy won't leave, if there is anything I can legally do to make sure he is out.


In this case, my brother cooperated right away and asked his "friend" to leave, and he is gone within 2 hours. (The "trade" on the side of the house.) Problem solved for now.
Thanks for the suggestions given. Next time, I know what I can do.

sho_bc 03-24-2015 06:41 PM

What is this "trade on the side of [your] house" you keep talking about? If you saw a drug deal, call it a drug deal. You make it sound like buddy is doing unwanted/no-permit construction.

Bath Tussue 03-24-2015 07:04 PM

I don't know if it is a drug deal. I was told "he left his cellphone somewhere and he was getting it back". I find it suspicious that they have to return a cellphone on the side of the house. But I don't want to accuse drug deal because I have no proof nor do I see what they exchanged.

If you think the police should look into it, I have the make model and license plate of the car.

Hopefully it's just something minor like cell phone return as you mentioned above. If it's drugs and whomever your brother friend is "dealing" with, might think your home is drug trade location, going to be lots of trouble....:pokerface:
