"Recovery of Real Property" ??? by Gina (Pennsylvania) on October 23, 2014 @12:19

My landlord posted a 30 day QUIT notice to my rental home.
I moved out on the 28th day and have not been back.
My neighbors tell me there is a notice posted to the door for a "Recovery of Real Property". And some kind of hearing to take place.
As stated, I am out of the property and have gone elsewhere.
What is going on? He evicted me, I left, now what is happening?

Your landlord did not evict you. He ordered you to Pay or Quit the lease. Did you return the keys? If not, you are still in possession and the landlord is evicting you. It is too late not to stop the eviction unless you want to return the key, pay the rent, pay the eviction filing fees along with the lawyer and make sure your deposit covers the mess you left behind. Can you do all that? If not you will be evicted and it will permanently stain your civil and credit record. Good luck finding a place to rent after that.

the landlord is gaining legal "possession" of the property through the courts, so you don't come back later and claim he did something wrong. Were you in communication with the landlord regarding your moving?

Gina, you can contact a local tenant association and they can advise you on your rights. You may be able to file against your landlord to recover your added exspense.
