If your landlord accidentally charges you a lower rent do you have to payback the difference?
Generally speaking, no. Your landlord may charge you whatever amount of rent he wants. If you are in good faith paying your rent on time, it is presumed that is your rent amount. Your landlord cannot turn around and ask you for more money simply because he thinks he's made a mistake in what he's been charging you. If he says you owe him back money you can refuse to pay but your landlord will likely evict you. However, you can fight the eviction proceedings. If what you're saying is true the judge will find in favor of you and will dismiss the case.

not in any state. To get repairs, the tenant needs to give the LL 30 days to make any repairs.
