Can landlord sell house that is being rented?

No. A lease is a legally binding contract that runs with a property, regardless of who owns the property. Unless there was a provision in the lease that specifically gave the landlord the right to break the lease upon sale of the property, you can compel the landlord and the new owner of the property to honor your lease. If you find that either the previous or new owner of the property is refusing to honor your lease, contact a landlord-tenant law attorney. A listing is available in your local phone book.

Does the landlord have to replace carpet if my apartment smells like cat URINE?

If the carpet originally smelled like that before you moved in, the landlord would have to do something about that. If it began smelling like cat urine after you moved in, I believe you would have to take care of that. Check your contract with the landlord.

The landlord is required to make reasonable attempts to notify the former tenant that he must remove his possessions. How long the landlord must wait before he disposes of the items depends on how much time the tenant has paid rent for. The time also depends on the jurisdiction.

Should the landlord replace toilet seat before a new tenant in new York?

Not necessarily: it depends on the condition of the toilet seat. If the landlord wants to attract a new tenant to rent his property to, it would be best for him to replace the toilet seat if it's not in good shape, because one of the worst detractors of tenants is a broken toilet seat.


Does landlord have to replace pet stained carpet before you move in?

This depends on your local housing codes. This would seem like a cosmetic issue and would be in the landlords best interest to do so, but he may not be lawfully required. He can rent the apartment in any condition as long as it meets the definition of "habitable" and meets local house and building codes. You have a few options, either don't rent the place or reach an agreement in writing with the landlord about the carpets. You may try an agreement such as "I will have the carpets professionally cleaned and whatever that cost is, you deduct it from next months rent." Finally, should you sign a leasehold for the apartment, you should note in the initial walk-through, the condition of the carpet and takes photos of it. This protects your personal interests should the landlord attempt to blame you for the damage to the carpets (and incidents such as this have happened in many jurisdictions).


Can you sue a landlord for mold if the landlord didnt know it ws their?

No, generally not. You have to a required to alert your landlord to a problem and give them time to fix it before you can sue them for it. Now if you can prove that they were a ware of the problem then you might have a case but if not then the courts will most likely side with the landlord and you will be the one stuck paying court bills. There may be local laws or circumstances regarding this issue that I'm not aware of. If so your best bet is to do some research.
