Good advice from the others. Definitely check local ordinances. There are rules against junk cars in the areas where I own property.

I have a clause in my lease regarding non-operative vehicles being prohibited. I even reserve the right to remove non-operative vehicles that are at the premises, but I've never actually had to resort to that. Of course your tenant's heap of junk may actually work, so not sure whether that would help you.

I also obtain vehicle info on my rental app, so that may be the way to go next time. I request the number of vehicles, make, model, color, year, license plate # (and state). The app. even asks whether the vehicle is insured and requests insurance agency along with policy #. Probably sounds like overkill, but in my state (IL) the law requires that vehicles be insured if they are on the road. I figure that if someone is too lax to get insurance for their cars, then I don't want their sorry butt living in one of my properties. Good luck.
