Unless you had an agreement with the landlord to that effect, no. If you repainted it because you just wanted a different color, then it's not likely.

In California what can a previous or current landlord disclose with a potential landlord when contacted as a reference?

I am no lawyer but... I expect the answer is: anything that is relevant to your application to rent at the new place. So, for example, they can ask if you were noisy or did drugs, etc. They should not ask your religion or national origin, etc.


How do you rent a house with option to buy?

A Rent to Buy or Rent to Own scheme can be quite creative and there is more than one way of doing it. Basically it is what it says: You rent and have the option, not the obligation, to buy the house in a specified time frame at a predetermined price. A perfect way to secure your spot on the housing ladder if you are not able to get a mortgage at the moment. Most often you will deal directly with the Seller/Landlord as these are more creative ways of buying/selling a house. For this service you should expect to lay in some getting started money, it can legally not be called deposit, that often is non refundable. This is for the Landlord to know you are not just renting and are serious about buying the place. This should come of the buying price in the end, so not to worry. Then most will ask for a monthly top-up, this might go off the buying price but that really depends on the deal. So normally you should expect to pay a bit more then renting but for that you can live in the house if you own it since somewhere down the line you will. And what if you decide not to buy? well it is just an option not an obligation. But you will loose the money you have invested in it so far.


What is the average cost of renting a condo?

When you rent a condominium, the owner may be interested in at least covering the cost of their monthly loan payment and their monthly assessment payment. If the unit is furnished, expect to pay a premium. As well, the owner will price the rental amount on the local market.


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.

Can your landlord have you pay for painting before you mve out?

If you received permission to paint the property from the landlord, you're obligated to return the apartment in the same condition as it was given to you. That means the paint on the walls too. So yes, even if you received permission to paint, you're still obligated to return it to as close as possible to the original wall color.If, however, you did not paint the premises at all and the landlord is demanding you pay for repainting for the next tenants enjoyment, that may be a huge no. The landlord cannot expect tenants to repaint after the duration of their tenancy. Minor paint damage (areas of peeling, knicks in the paint, nail holes, etc) are typically defined as ordinary wear and tare. As such, they're exempt from damage claims.

Tenant/Landlord Rights on the Lease Agreement?

A lease agreement is an agreement between a landlord (property owner) and the tenant (resident). It is a legally binding agreement that allows either party to sue in court if the lease agreement is broken. A lease agreement is signed prior to a tenant taking residency in the dwelling (building).Tenants RightsTenants have rights under the lease agreement and can expect certain things from the landlord. The first thing tenants should expect from the landlord is a safe place to live. The landlord must keep the home in good repair. If there are issues in the residence that pose a health risk to the tenants, the landlord must repair it..The landlord cannot enter the home unless he or she has been given express permission to do so by you. If the landlord takes such action, he or she opens him or herself up to a lawsuit. The tenant has a right to privacy.The tenant can expect the landlord to return the security deposit placed when the lease was signed. The landlord can keep a portion of the security deposit if repairs are necessary due to damage done by the tenant. The landlord may be able to keep the full security deposit if the tenant owes rent. The security deposit must be returned to the tenant within a certain amount of time, generally 60 to 90 days.Landlord's RightsThe landlord has the right to expect rent on time each month. They have the right to expect the correct amount of rent due, not just a portion. If the landlord does not receive rent on time, he or she can sue the tenant in court for payment as well as eviction.The landlord has the right to expect tenants to take care of the property. The tenant is allowed a certain amount of room with normal wear and tear, but huge holes in the walls or stains on the carpet are looked on as a problem. The landlord can use the security deposit to make these types of repairs after the tenant moves out.The tenant/landlord relationship can be a good one as long as both parties adhere to the laws and the lease agreement. Both sides have options if the other side does not adhere to the lease or laws. Not all landlords wish to have a lease agreement in writing. It is important to have the agreement for the protection of everyone involved.


Can a tenant change the locks without consent and without giving the landlord a key in tucson Arizona?

There's no law that prevents it. Some leases have a provision prohibiting changing the locks, but don't expect a judge to enforce it. The prudent landlord would not want a key, since he shouldn't be entering without the tenant's permission anyway, and, preferably, with the tenant there. If he doesn't have a key, the tenant cannot accuse him of unlawful entry. So, yes.

How often is New York state landlord required to paint the apartment?

Depends on the state you live in. In Wisconsin, the landlord MUST repaint any unit between tenants. The short answer is: he (or she) is NOT required to paint an apartment. Generally, whether a landlord paints an apartment depends entirely on the conditions of the rental market at the time and location. If it's a landlord's market, don't expect the landlord to paint, even if the place is a mess. The responsibility and cost of painting will be on the renter. Renters should get the landlord's permission in writing before painting, however. In a renter's market, landlords may offer to paint the place before you move in. If you've been living there a while and your lease is ending, the landlord may be willing to paint your unit if he doesn't want to lose you as a tenant. But I certainly wouldn't expect an apartment to be pointed more frequently than once every five years or so. Any tenant of mine that required his unit to be painted more often than that is not one I'd want to keep.


Does a landlord have to fix air conditioning in Arizona?

I don't know Arizona laws specifically but ... I expect the law will say if the property had working air conditioning when you signed the lease and moved in, then it is the obligation of the landlord to maintain it in working condition.
