    Rental neglect and unsanitary conditions

    Sorry, I don't believe your story. For one thing, you never mention that the neighbors were complaining about the sewage smell if it was that strong. Nor the ants. Once you started to complain about illness, without doctor backup or emergency room visits, than it never happen. The only thing...

    Ex-roommates were Evicted, Renter wants Money from Me

    You may have sent an letter stating you were going to vacate, but did they acknowledge this? If not, than you can still be held liable for the place. Just because you did this does not mean you can just walk away. And you ask can roommates stay under the old contract? Yes, nothing has...

    Army Judge, Give them some grounds if you know them, don't just wave it in the air. I hate when people do these things like that.

As far as the ants, spray it first and than it problem continue and they are coming in the house, than they are not keeping the house clean or trying to control the ants which in turn can cause damage to your...

    Need sound advice

    Need answers for my son. He will not take my opinion on what is wrong about how he thinks on renting a place. Would appreciate everyone to answer. Even thou I am a LL myself, he stills feels that some things are wrong. 1) He feels that he shouldn't have to pay rent to his aunt, his LL...

    Petition

    You have to break something in the lease. Must be a good tenant to get all that attention. I hate to have to live there or be the LL. Always someone making it bad for everyone else.

    Billed for repair and amount added to rent the following month

    If you cannot prove who cracked the window, than the LL blames you. You live there you take responsibility. He should have added that amount to your rent, not take it off. But you need to see what your lease says. If it says that repairs not paid for will be treated as rent, than if you sign...

    Why can't I get my "Security Deposit" back?

    But remember, that the deposit is used for damages to the property.

    Landlord overcharged for repairs and took unreasonable amount from the deposit

    Basically, you have no case. What is clean to you is not clean to me. A typical charge to clean a two bedroom apartment is about $135.00. Blinds can vary in price depending on size. The window sounds cheap. To replace a window would run around a $100.00, depending on size. If you do not...

    Going to District Court

    Another thing, do not raise hands during the other party speaking. Be careful not to wear to much make-up. Keep appearance subtle. Keep eyes on the judge, keep hands at side or on the table folded. Do not fold arms or place on hips. Do not make faces when party lies. Have your paperwork in...

    Security Deposit California

    I also get ink from that place..they only deliver it like regular mail. You can not prove he took it. It is nothing like a certified register mail where you have to sign for it. But lets say you did. You still can't prove he sign for it. Anyone could sign the name on the package. Use a...

    Question on mold removal

    Another tenant that believes mold can be dangerous to their child health. You were aware that the houses, as you stated, "sits on a hill side with water seeping is not a surprise." So if you have it up your sleeve to sue because you have mold, dangerous to child health, it won't hold up. You...

    security deposit

    I had a feeling you were not a LL. Some of your advice, like nail holes are not damages, are incorrect. Also, giving tenants reason that LL would rent to them if they bring a suit against them, if it had merit. Plus a few other things that is just seen from a tenant view. I agree that if...
