How do you take on your Landlord?

Get a copy of the local landlord/tenant laws and regulations and find any that you believe the landlord is violating. Your attorney can advise you where to go from there.

Check with your local housing authority there. They usually will have a list of properties available for rent from landlord to take section 8 vouchers. If you're looking for public housing, still you need to check with the local housing authority.


How much is a 2 bedroom section 8 voucher worth?

It's a little complicated. The rules for section 8 set a limit to the rent that can be charged by the landlord. This depends on where the apartment is and what is provided in the way of appliances and utilities. Note. In general, if you find a three bedroom unit whose rent is within the limit for a 2 bedroom, the section 8 people won't allow you to take it. If this happens to you, ask the landlord to rent it to you as a 2-bedroom, 2-living room unit. Strangely enough, this is quite legal. Provided you find a home that is within the limit, the housing authority will "means test" you to decide how much you can afford to pay yourself; they will then pay the difference directly to the landlord. You then pay what they didn't. Warning. Take great care to pay your portion. If you don't you will lose your voucher.

Can landlord demand full rent payment before Section 8 helps in the same month?

The landlord can demand rent when it is due. Depending on the jurisdiction, they may not be able to take legal action until after 3 days but it is due when the lease says it is due. If Section 8 has not promised to pay on the due date you have in mind, it's the tenant's responsibility.

If you live in a rental house who pays the plumber bill - you or the landlord?

AnswerMost rental questions can be answered by talking with your landlord. I've been in both situations. As a renter, I want the landlord to take care of everything. As a landlord, I want my renter to take some responsibility.I think a clogged drain is up to the renter to get fixed. A leaky pipe is more a landlord duty. However, if you want something more concrete, I suggest you come to an agreement with your landlord. You'll take care of any repairs that cost less than $50 and the landlord will be responsible for the bigger jobs.Max
