The laws regarding the renting of a storage locker is not the same as residential landlord laws. In a residential setting a landlord may not change any locks whatsoever, without proper eviction procedures followed. If you have a storage locker that is part of the property you are renting from a residential landlord it is subject to that same rule. If your landlord also owns a storage facility from which you are also renting a storage locker, and you owe him rent for your residential property, he may not change the locks of the storage locker as long as you are current on your storage locker rent. If the rent of the residential property includes the rent of the storage locker as part of the rent altogether, he may not change the locks of the locker, whether the locker is located on the property or a separate facility. If you are renting a storage locker, whether the owner of that facility is also your residential landlord. then you are subject to the regulations regarding the rent of a storage locker. If you are behind on that rent the owner may charge you late fees and then may place one of his own locks on your storage locker to lock you out of your locker until all fees and rent are kept current. After a certain time the facility owner may seize your locker and auction off any contents therein.

Can a landlord redecorate and fix the house for selling while the current tenants are still renting and living there?

Yes, a landlord can redecorate and fix the house for selling while the current tenants are still renting and living there, as long as it does not disrupt the tenant's right to quiet enjoyment and does not violate any terms specified in the lease agreement. The landlord should communicate with the tenants in advance about any planned renovations or repairs and try to schedule them at a convenient time for the tenants.


The rental property was sold while i was living there. the new landlord gave me 30 days notice to get out. i am currently out of the house. the previous landlord told me i have to pay him for damages.?

No, the new owner bought the property as is, with any damages. Since you were still a tenant when he bought it the new owner is the only one who might have an issue with damages.


What can a Landlord charge you from you security deposit?

Not while he's holding the security deposit and the tenant is still living on the property. If your landlord finds that the tenant has damaged the home of landlord can give him the opportunity to fix it, sue the tenant for such damage - even if the tenant is still living on the property - or begin the eviction proceedings for violating the terms of the lease with the proper notice asking the tenant to vacate the premises. If the tenant moves out because of the violation, the landlord may keep all or part of the security deposit he is holding.


Can a landlord evict someone living on their property when they haven't signed a lease?

I am presuming we have three components here: a landlord, a tenant, and a subtenant. The landlord in this case is presumably renting to a tenant, while the tenant is presumably renting to a subtenant. I presume that tenant has a lease while the subtenant doesn't. The tenant becomes the landlord for the subtenant. Since there is no lease (in most states subletting does not involve a lease) in this case, the tenant who is the subtenant landlord can evict the subtenant. While the main landlord can evict the tenant -which automatically evicts the subtenant -only the tenant can evict the subtenant. But the main landlord can evict all by evicting the tenant.


How can I move out early but still fulfill my rental agreement by continuing to pay rent?

To move out early but still fulfill your rental agreement, you can find a new tenant to take over your lease or sublet the property with your landlord's approval. This way, you can continue to pay rent while living elsewhere.


If your rent is paid up to date and you receive a eviction notice do you still pay rent to the landlord or do you hold it?

As long as you're in the apartment your rent is still due. If the landlord is evicting you for any other reason except non-payment of rent you still must pay while the case is still pending. If it's for non-payment your court's clerk's office should tell you if you should pay the landlord or the Clerk's Registry.
