Signing the lease and paying the security deposit are two separate issues. Furthermore, if you don't pay the security deposit then you could be in violation of the lease terms and be evicted if the landlord chooses. Normally you pay the security deposit before you and your landlord sign the lease, or work out a payment plan that you and your landlord agree to. If your landlord agreed to allow you to skip the security deposit then that part of the lease is waived and the rest of the lease stands.
If YOU, his legal spouse, signed the lease - then he cannot be evicted. If no one ever signed a valid lease, then you can all be evicted.
Chances are that the answer is yes. I mean if a lease is valid when it's done orally, and no one has a copy, then if you signed it that's it.
What payments are you referring to? It sounds as if the clause refers to the preliminary payments that are often secured PRIOR to allowing the tenant to move in and the lease actually going into effect (i.e.: security deposit - pet deposit - utility deposits - etc). If you've been living there and the payments you are referring to are your rental payments - too late - the lease is already in full effect.
Yes! The married couple is considered a "community" and are. . . . .both. . . . .liable for the rent and upholding the lease!
Valid. Valid. Valid if there is someone to enforce it like a family member, trust, heir or lawyer. Y-THINK-Y
Probably not. But, if this was an attempt by the signer to create a loophole for getting out of the lease later, a judge might hold the person to it.
If you signed, the lease is binding. You don't have to move in, but you do have to pay the rent. The landlord has an obligation to try to rent the place, but until he does, you have to pay.
No. To execute a valid contract it needs to be signed by all the owners.
If the landlord accepts your rent and you pay it, after the lease is signed, then it generall doesn't matter whether it's properly dated. If the lease was supposed to be for a specific period such as one year and the date was omitted, that could benefit either party depending on the circumstances.
No, there is no requirement to have a copy. If you want to enforce the contract, having a copy is important. And it should be a signed copy to take to court.
For the rental lease agreement to be valid in the United States court of law it has to be signed by the Landlord and Tenant.
Yes, it is possible. You would have to deposit your valid ID proof in the security counter.
