As far as I know, no state requires this disclosure. Many states have case law which holds that a landlord or seller is specifically not required to make such a disclosure.

If you filed chapter 13 six months ago and you have been offered a job in another state will you be able to rent an apartment?

How can you avoid getting in trouble with your landlord if you've lost the extra keys to your apartment?

Make another set of keys. Or just tell them that you accidently lost your extra set. * It might be wise to consider the issue of security, regardless of how remote the possiblity might be of someone being able to use them. The best option would be to tell the landlord what has happened and pay for the locks to be changed and the extra set of new keys.

If your landlord sells your house can the new landlord raise your rent?

The new owner must abide by whatever agreement is in force. If there is a lease he cannot change any of the terms except by mutual agreement. If you are month-to-month he can only do this after giving you a proper written notice and anywhere from 30-90 days warning in advance, this allows you to either pay the new rental agreement, or look for another place to live. If this was not done, i'd recommend talking to a lawyer.

Can you get evicted from an illegal apartment in nc?

Additional info I have been living in this apartment for 1 year in November and there is no lease. The "apartment" does not seem like an apartment from the outside, it looks like a tool shed. If a guest who has never seen it were to walk up to it, they would have no idea it is an apartment. The landlord built it himself, originally so his son could smoke pot there. Oh yea, landlord is a retired cop. Anyways, the apartment has no windows and no fire extinguisher and no smoke detectors. The kitchen and bathroom are all in one room. The only thing that separates the toilet from kitchen is a curtain. I recently lost my job and will not be able to pay rent until I find another job. I have never been late or behind on rent. Can the landlord evict me?

Is a landlord allowed to discuss a person delinquent rent payments with the renter's parent?

Actually, there are no specific rules which prohibit anyone from talking to another person about delinquent rents, whether it be the tenant's parents, another landlord or potential landlord, or even the tenant's doctor. However, most apartment complexes and professional landlords have a strict policy against disclosing information about specific tenants without their permission, with the exception of law enforcement officers.

What if landlord rents apartment while old tenant still there?

Depending on where you live your landlord may have to give you a certain number of days notice before you are required to leave the premises (unless you are putting yourself or someone else in danger). Until then, you are not the old tenant, but the current tenant and your rented property can not be handed over to another party.
