QUESTIONS

  • If the Landlord issues a 10 day non-compliance letter, and the tenant has already sent a letter stating they are breaking the lease and leaving one month early, can the Landlord still hold tenant responsible for the last month of rent, if tenant cannot remedy the non-compliance issues in 10 days and has to move out?
  • I understand there is a 48-hr required notice for showing a property occupied with tenants. If the tenant agrees says it is ok, is it ok to ask for an earlier showing, as long as I inform them that they are not obligated to allow it that early? Or would they still have legal recourse if they agree and is shown with less than 48 hr notice?
  • I received a letter from the HOA and the property management company that the window screens need to be replaced or repaired. The screens are in the same condition as move in, less sun damage. My lease does not specify that they are my responsibility. Please advise.
  • I am non custodial parent. I have come to realize that my ex wife is putting my children's mental and emotional well being at harm. is there anything i can do to get them back? She allows her abusive boyfriend around my kids, on various occasions they have witnessed serious domestic violence in one occasion her boyfriend was arrested and she did an order of protection for her and protected persons included my children, within a week she dismissed the order of protection, and allows him to be around my kids. They are still dating. i have police reports, is there possibility to get them back?

  • I am noticably disabled and live in a crime free.multi housing complex. There are several tenants who have either used a sharpie to change the expiration on their placards, have expired placards, or who simply park in the few disabled spots available. I have made the manager aware of these continual incidents, and was told that if they had any kind of placard or plate;(regardless of it's status), that the apartment management had no recourse. Is this accurate? If not, what can I do to see that this ADA accomadation is enforced properly?
  • Can you get fired if you are on FMLA?
