QUESTIONS

  • Does my landlord have a right to ask about proof of employment- even if I am paying my rent on time and in full each month? I have also paid all of the security, final month rent, and non refundable moneys when I moved in. He asked for proof of employment and bank account numbers on the application, I gave him my current which was out of state, now he is insisting on current employment and income amounts. He tells me that I am on a 6 month probation out of a 1yr lease upon proof of employment each month.
  • We rented from a complex in Phoenix with a 13 month lease. We gave a 30 day notice and broke our lease after 6 months for my wife to take a job in PA. The lease states that we are responsible for the entire amount due UNTIL the apt is rented. That amounts to $11,000! It is now in collections, so I called to see if the apt. has been rented yet. I was not told if it has been, but the mgr. said it does not matter because we are still responsible for ALL of the rent, since we did not pay it all when we moved out. . Can they charge us for rent on an apt that is being rented? If so--RIDICULOUS
  • We are senior citizens. A bank is offering us a home loan that we assumed was fixed interest-the rate dropped a fraction, even-then I happened to notice an unfamiliar phrase with a tiny checked box-'demand feature'. I looked it up: the bank can demand payment, calling the loan, at any time without giving a reason. It said that some states prohibit that practice. Is Arizona one? Calling the loan could destroy us and force the property into foreclosure.
  • Is there specific paper I need to move out of state after a divorce where I have received sole custody of the children
  • My daughter turned 18 a week ago and when I just renewed my lease, they made me put her on there? And ran a credit score? Is this right? If I'm late on a payment it goes on her credit too?? We have lived here for 4 years...
  • I have a big root right down middle of my drive,splitting blacktop in half and lifting it up.i did not plant the tree.is park responsible for root removal and fixing my drive?i have to straddle my car over it.
  • Can I get full custody and child support from kids dad. We moved here to Arizona 3 years ago and he hasn’t helped with anything but medical coverage. We had 50/50 but really needing his help raise his kids
  • I want to know if AHCCCS will cover a cataract surgery? I was told I need it in both eyes!
  • what are the financial limits in the food stamp program
  • My son asked to move his camper to my home. I adamantly told him NO. He knocked on my door 3 days ago and had moved it on my property while I was sleeping. He is not allowed on my property anyway due to his drug use. Now I have people in on out of his trailer buying dope. I don't know what to do to make him leave! Do I call the police or do I have to file an eviction notice on him? I am afraid of him as he has threatened both my life and to burn down my house if I didn't let him park it! I reported the threats to the police the week before when I told him no. Desperate
