QUESTIONS

  • I started renting out a room in 9/2018. I received rent until middle of October and have been waiting for payments until then. In March I received $ 250 out of $ 450. I already served this tenant with a 5 day non pay but could not follow up with the eviction notice because I got sick. I am mostly wheelchair bound on top of that. Now this tenant has moved several pieces of furniture into the garage without my permission, blocking access to parts of the garage. What can I do and what can I do with those furniture? Please, I just want my peace back. I need help.
  • My roomate and I signed a 12 month lease. 3 months into she is leaving and wants me to sign her off the lease leaving me the only one responsible. Do I have to sign her off? I can't afford the place by myself.
  • Please describe what the courts look at for "best Interest for the child". Do they take into account what the child(ren) want?
  • My lease is up April 10. It requires 60 day notice. If I go to month to month, am I still required to give 60 days notice for move out, or is 30 days sufficient since I will no longer be under the lease?
  • I recently moved out and the landlord never gave me my deposit back. I left the home in good condition the only thing he wrote on the disposition report that the carpet was dirty. Ever since we moved in we told him the carpet needed to be replace because it was worn out and you could see previous stains he never did anything about it. Now he wants to subtract that from the deposit which i think is unfair. What can I do?
  • Is there any provisions that afford the landlord from renting to felons?
