    Do I have a case against faux landlords?

    You benefited from living at the property and where and how your rent money was disbursed is immaterial. The original property owner may have a cause of action against the faux landlord/property managers, but not you

    threat of lawsuit by landlord

    NO, it is not PROTECTED - and since you have no first hand knowledge, why did you publish FALSE information about the complex? Remove your post ASAP and look up libel and slander.

    Borrow from friends/family, 401K, IRAs, credit cards, etc. or ask the builder to take a 5 year second mortgage at minimum interest so that you can re-finance in 2 or 3 years and pay it off.

    California-Unlawful Detainer Judgement

    Is it possible for them to summon me through mail as a valid way of being served? (If it was mailed to my old address I did not recieve it.) Or do they need to physically serve me? If you are talking about the original UD, they substitute served you at the property if you did not ADVISE the...

    Small Claims against Landlord

    He wants his "day in court" and since the original judgement was in Small Claims, he can have the case heard AGAIN in front of a judge or jury. Your parents need to be prepared to present their case again and use an attorney if possible.

    Utility fee added in addition to monthly rent

    Write a nice letter to your landlord and advise him/her that since the new lease has been signed that their attempt to gain an additional $20 per person is not lawful (don't say illegal) and that you will not be paying it. If you do have children in the unit with you and BF, if your landlord...

    2nd Judgement by same company

    I'm going to suggest the second suit is for the INTEREST accrued since the first judgement. Depending on your other debts, you may find a consultation/discussion with a bankruptcy attorney is in order once the foreclosure is complete as they may well be a deficiency amount you owe if the home...

    Tenant committed fraud on the rental application

    Hopefully you have an eviction service or knowledgable L-T attorney handling your eviction. You need to be paying your bills - mortgage, insurance, etc even if you are NOT getting income from the property in order to save your credit. That said, ask your attorney if you can file a Small...

    Tenants did not pay water bills who is responsible?

    You are responsible and it is unfortunate that your local water/utility company will not go after the tenants and expect a landlord/property owner to pay it. If the house is in foreclosure, you may want to have a consultation with a bankruptcy attorney about your option for declaring...

    Privacy Invasion? Contract Contrary to Law?

    Since we signed this contract, does it mean they can just come in whenever they want without contacting us or getting our consent? What about our privacy? Can people create contracts that allow them to do unlawful things? YES - you did not answer the door in a timely manner and you agreed...

    Getting Security Deposit Back

    You owe the rent if you stayed into the next month and you actually owe for the ENTIRE of the next month depending on your state's statutes. You should have had your exit walk-through with your LANDLORD not your FAMILY. He may well have pictures as well as other evidence as to the...

    How to take my name off lease?

    Your landlord has to agree to letting you out of the lease and you should get that agreement in writing....your landlord does not have to remove you from the lease and may insist that you fine a replacement tenant before being released of any obligation,

    Property Manager/Credit Check?

    9/11 changed a lot including the fact that users of credit data can't provide that information to a third party - even if the report was done for the benefit of your renting the property. The credit bureaus want to control who has access to that information to the point of performing site...

    Landlord attacked me

    Unless your landlord is CONVICTED of a crime against you, it is your word v his word. You need to bring in a roommate or find alternative tenants to take your place....free rent is probably not in the cards since you are obviously responsible for your landlord having to pay thousands in...

    landlord entered apartment without permission

    Providing NOTICE is all most L-T regulations require...you should have had your dog at the "pet salon" if you knew the apt was being shown on Monday....you need to call and APOLOGIZE to your landlord about YOUR misunderstanding and that had you known, you would have been home to take care of the...
