Can a landlord hold your property until he receives payment?
It depends, did you sign a contract saying that if the landlord did not receive payment in _ amount of time, the landlord may hold personal property until payment is received If you did not (which no logical person would do, unless they did not like and or enjoy their personal property) then it is against the law that they take it, unless you HAND it over to them or allow them to take it, if they took (also known as stole) any personal property without your permission, you can take your landlord to court, and justice will most likely will be paid, but to be positively far, the landlord can give a certain amount of time for you to pack your things if you did not pay, so things do even out, but this is not a legal case unless you either handed or gave permission for your landlord to take/touch your personal property...

Can the landlord hold property after eviction due to balance of rent due?
In most jurisdictions, yes. A landlord can hold personal effects and in many cases sell them to recoup money owed. When a landlord holds personal effects or sell them to recoup money owed, this is called 'conversion' and landlord is liable to the tenant for the 'reasonable value' of the property regardless of what they were sold for .... you got it, now the judge becomes the trier of fact on what was 'reasonable value.' The better practice is to store the property ... in California after 15 days... and let the tenant or prior owner pay the storage fee to regain possession of the personal effects.

Can the landlord hold property due to balance of rent due?
Generally, no. The possession of someone else's property for a debt is a "pledge" or "security agreement" that goes well beyond the mere obligation to pay rent. In other words, the tenant must AGREE to allow the landlord to have a security interest in the tenant's property. However, if the landlord has accrued moving and storage fees for the tenant's property, the landlord often has an automatic "lien" on the property for payment of those expenses, but not the overdue rent. When the landlord perfects the lien, holds a public auction and sells the tenant's property, the landlord can usually only keep the amount of profit (if any) that covers the expenses, unless there is also a court order that the tenant owes other rent, penalties, fees, interest, costs, etc.

When can a manager of an apartment complex change the locks?
In Canada if there has been several break-ins in the complex then the landlord has the right to change ALL locks, but the tenants must be notified and given a new key. The only other reason would be if the tenant has not paid their rent, then the landlord can change the lock on that particular apartment with the contents still in it until the tenant pays the rent. In the US a landlord cannot use self-help to hold the renter's personal property for rent due, unless it was so stated in the rental agreement. Before a landlord can seize property and lock a delinquent tenant out of the residence they must use due process of law, receive a Writ of Possession and serve the delinquent tenant with the writ. If the tenant does not recover his or her belongings within the specified time limit, the landlord can consider them abandoned and dispose of them in whatever manner chosen. If the landlord wishes to remove the property from the residence before the set time expires he must secure those items in a storage area.

Time: 3 days Then the landlord must file the paperwork with the Clerk's Office: < 1 day Sheriff's deputy serves the eviction summons: This takes one day or two You have then FIVE days to answer the Summons, and the answer must accompany a money order or cash in the amount of the rent, in person at the Clerk's Office. If you don't have the money, the Judge doesn't want to hear from you. He can rule a Judgment for the Landlord by default. Time: about three days Then the Landlord must obtain a write of possession.
