QUESTIONS

  • We recently moved out of our rental due to purchasing a home. Our rent was paid through July 31st. We noticed yesterday new renters were moving into our rental house . (June 27th)Real Property Management is refusing to give us our deposit back and is stating we still owe them July's rent. Which I have receipts of payment. Is our only action to go to Small Claims Court ?
  • My sister in law came to stay with us from CA because we didn't want her to be homeless....we allowed her to stay here so that she could have time to get a job and find a place for herself. She is not on the lease and doesn't pay rent nor has there ever been rent spoken of because this was supposed to be temporary. She did have her mail forwarded to herself her. Since moving in we have found out she is actively using street drugs and is not making efforts to help herself and has become increasingly hostile and verbally abusive. Can she still be removed as a guest...the police said no. Help.

She took him to a therpist who recommened he be medicated, and she wants him medicated as well. I do not support this, but she said I do not have a say in the situation.
