What do when tenants do not pay the rents - Spain

​One feared situation by property owners are tenants who do not pay rents neither are they willing to leave the apartment. What to do in this kind of situation? 

Firstly, one could try to negotiate and send a payment requirement. If the tenant is willing to pay, one could try (depending on if one has trust in the tenant) sign a payment plan in which the tenant has to pay the rents in a certain period. If the tenant does not pay in the given time he will also need to lend the keys back and is informed that the owner will take legal actions collecting the credit and to force the possible eviction. 

A common way to collect the unpaid rents is with a special type of process called “proceso monitorio” in which the eviction could be forced within the same court proceeding.
