QUESTIONS

  • I moved into my house last year, and I just renewed my lease. I went to replace the batteries in my fire alarms and it says they needed to be replaced in 2015. I filed a work order with the landlord and they texted me to find out what was wrong bur never came to fix the problem. Is this a requirement for them to fix?
  • I signed a 7 month lease which was up on July 4th. I asked for an extra month after my lease expired and they said, no problem. I went in to pay this months rent and they ask me to pay almost $300 more for the extra month. I told them I was not told of an increase in rent and I don't have the extra money for this. Is this legal for them to raise the rent without any kind of notice? They also put a 5 day notice on my door.
