Next time I'll have everyone over the age of 18 fill out an application. Thanks

If a lease was signed and afterward we found that one of the tenants signed with an assumed name, is the lease valid? Thank you

I believe you meant to say 'if they're lifestyle choices aren't an issue why bring it up'. Nevertheless, I guess I would never have even thought about it if both were obviously female, but since the one person is using one name and identity with the one landlord the comment was something about...

I know it's too late, but just so I'll know. One prospective tenant came filled out the app. She was the most qualified, so she said she wanted her partner to look at it. They came back, and the woman liked the house and so they signed the lease. I really don't care about people's...

They gave money to "hold" the rental, if they didn't follow through the money would not be refunded. If they didn't back out it would go toward what was owed in rent or security deposit. Had had a bad situation with someone backing out after putting down a security deposit. A long story, but...

The agreement was we asked for a non-refundable deposit (if they backed out before moving in). Otherwise, the payment would go toward their rent & security deposit. The amount was less than we requested, as they were having a cash flow problem. They are suppose to pay the rest $350 after...

The partial payment was non refundable for us to "hold" the rental to protect ourselves if they backed out.. The total to be paid by the Oct. 1, 2009 date. We'd asked for the security deposit of $700, but there was a cash flow problem.

Actually they won't move in until Oct. 1, 2009

Tenants signed lease & gave partial payment of security deposit. They will move in Oct. 1, 2009. Can I require that they pay the entire amount now rather than waiting until October 1, 2009 when the rent is due? Thank you

Even though they want the cable for the internet and not for the tv? Thank you

There is a cable TV hook up already. The tenants who haven't moved in yet also want a satellite hookup for their tv. They'll use the Cable for their internet. Do I have to allow this or can I tell them that since there is already a hook up in the house I don't want any more wires coming into...

The tub has walls (window) on two sides and wall with cupboard on the third. As to the payment they haven't actually paid any rent yet, just signed the lease and placed a partial payment down on the security deposit. The rest will be paid after the First of Sept. Could I require the payment...

I'm the landlord signed lease with a tenant (couple) who won't move in until Oct. 1. Since they were the best at the time we allowed since they had to give 30 days notice. Our mistake we should have waited to see if someone better came along. Live and learn. Question: The bathroom hasn't a...

UPDATE: After e-mailing the renter again that the rent didn't include the lawn service (see other thread) and there would be no change in that situation. I heard nothing for almost a day. Then Saturday she calls to say they wanted their deposit back ("oh, I thought we didn't have a lease...

After the renter signed the lease & before we had all the problems & discussion (disagreement) about whether lawn service was included in the rental she asked if she could store a few things in the garage before the rental period. Up to that point she was professional. Now... the situation...
