Does a landlord have to have a reason to kick a tenant out?

Not really: a landlord can reclaim their property at the end of a lease-- no material reason needed-- or give notice to a month-to-month tenant (or week-to-week, if applicable).


How many days of notification does a landlord have to give before raising the rent?

Yes. If the rent is on a written lease then the lease must expire, and the landlord must give at least 30-days notice before the lease expires. If the rent is on a month-to-month basis, then the landlord must give a 30-day notice before the next rent is due. If the rent is on a weekly basis then the notice must be given at least one week before the rent is due.


Can maintenance enter a tenants property without the tenant being home?

The terms of the lease typically include an access clause. It will specifiy what rights the landlord has to enter the property and what types of notice they need to provide. In most cases they will have the right to enter to do emergency repairs to preserve the property without any notice. Routine maintenance and inspections will normally give 24 hour notice, but there are no garantees.


If renter has to move from a rental property because of landlords fault who is responsible for moving costs?

If the lease is month to month, the landlord just has to give you a month notice and you are gone. If there is a lease that is still in effect, the landlord is responsible for costs that you incurred as a result of the breach of the lease.


What are the laws concerning someone who rents a home and is the landlord of the home allowed to come in at any time?

Laws will be different from country to country, and possibly even from state to state in the US. I think virtually everywhere in the US, a landlord does not have the right to enter a rented (up-to-date) property at any time. Your rent doesn't give you full ownership of the property, but it does give you certain rights. The privacy of your home is something you should be able to expect when you rent and are current. The landlord does own the property, however, and has the right to inspect the property after giving you adequate notice (and possibly under other circumstances according to the law). You'll have to check local/state laws.

Is it legal for landlord to enter property to fix your lights if you are at work without letting you know?

Under most state laws a landlord must give you adequate notice before he can enter your property for routine maintenance or inspection.

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.
