There are some agencies that help in this manner, but you will have to prove need and, perhaps get on a waiting list. It is better for you to plan how you will earn the money and save to pay the deposit. This is a useful skill to have.

How can you get out of paying rent if you can't afford it?

Is your home in great order and shape? Is your landlord fulfiling his end of the agreement? If you can say YES to either or both questions you might be able to break the lease by means of constructive eviction. If the answers are NO, then you can't break out of a lease, or if you do, you suffer the consequences: your landlord can keep the security deposit and you may be liable for the rent of the unit for each month it's vacant during the time of your lease or until the unit is rented out.

Can your landlord require as a condition of renting an apartment to you a security deposit the first month's rent and the last month's rent?

The answer below is pretty much correct. It is important to understand that there is rent and security. The deposit is to cover losses and protect the landowner against you if you have bad credit or if you demolish the apartment. The owner must deposit this in a separate security account that carries interest payments on your money. Only if it is included in the wording of the lease that was signed. If there is no clause requiring last month's rent. Then the request by the landlord is unenforceable. : Better if you are going to review your contract because that is the only way to know if the things that your landlord's doing are legal. There are times that they are allowed to ask for last months deposit because they need to be assured that even though you will be evicted or move out without ending the lease and you choose not to pay your last monthly rental fee at least they have your last month deposit.


What is rent to own home contracts?

A rent to own contract is an agreement between a home seller and a home buyer to transfer the ownership of the home over a period of time. Normally the buyer puts down an non-refundable deposit that is used as a portion of the down payment and makes monthly payments for one, two or three years in order to obtain financing. The buyer then prepares to obtain the appropriate financing before the end of the contract term. If the buyer is unable to do so, the deposit is fortified to the seller. These contracts help those with challenged credit get into a home without the need for a traditional loan. Please check out this blog http://renttoowndeals4u.com/blog.htm. They have great articles on the process and the pitfalls.


How do you write a 30 day notice to break a lease?

Release from Your Lease If you have to move before the end of your lease term, you and your landlord must agree to release you from your lease. If you end your lease properly, in accordance with the provisions of your lease, the landlord will remove your name from the lease or will void your lease and would enter into a new lease agreement with the new tenant. This will end your liability for future rent or damages. The landlord will return your security deposit to you, and will collect a new security deposit from the new tenant. This is the safest and clearest arrangement for you.

Where to find a copy of the law that states the deposit can be used for the last months rent if your evicted?

Your state laws should have a section about "landlord and tenant" or the like. There are also many self-help books available about landlord/tenant laws. In Massachusetts, for example, the law defines both a security deposit and a damage deposit and ONLY the security deposit can be applied to delinquent rent, and the damage deposit remains the property of the tenant until the landlord proves damage to the premises and the costs to repair them.


Why your ex-Landland hasn't responded to my calls and letter after my lease expired and you moved out of his property 212 months ago He hasn't return your security deposit Please help?

212 months is a long time to be demanding the return of the security deposit, so the statute of limitations of your state may have already expired. Assuming it hasn't, you have the right to sue you for landlord for the recovery of the security deposit. In most states the landlord must return your security deposit within 30 days of your vacation from the premises or automatically forfeit it, unless within the same period of time he submits to you an itemized bill for any damages that incurred beyond normal wear and tear.


In the State of Maryland how much time does a landlord have to return a deposit after the tenants vacate?

In the State of Maryland, a landlord has 45 days from the date a residential tenant vacates the premises to return any security deposit, minus any deductions for damage. Within 30 days of the date the tenant vacates, the landlord must notify the tenant in writing of any damage deductions being taken from the security deposit. If a landlord fails to return any portion of the security deposit rightly owed to the tenant, the tenant can sue the landlord for up to three times the amount of the security deposit that was wrongly withheld, plus attorney fees. Maryland has many online legal self-help resources on landlord-tenant law and other subjects. For a directory of these resources, visit the Maryland Courts Self-Help Directory related link.

Security Deposit Refund, Request by Tenant?

Security Deposit Refund, Request by Tenant(Download)Dear ____________:My lease for ____________________ ends on _______________. When the lease started, I paid you $_______ as a security deposit. I request that a full refund of the security deposit be mailed to the following address: _____________________________ ___________________________________________.Thank you for all your helpfulness during my tenancy. If you can do it, I would appreciate receiving my Security Deposit back within the next two weeks. If any portion of the security deposit is not returned, please send a written explanation detailing your reasons.Thank you again for your help,Best regards,____________TenantSecurity Deposit Refund, Request by TenantReview ListThis review list is provided to inform you about this document in question and assist you in its preparation. Early submission of your request, and politely done (this is a Sales call, after all), will give you the best results. Keep a copy so you can mail it out in two weeks, with a notation “Second Notice” in handwriting, will help encourage compliance by the Landlord. Many Landlords try to “get away” with not paying Security Deposits back, especially if they only own a few units.If the Landlord does not pay up in a reasonable amount of time, file a claim in Small Claims Court. Landlords usually lose on these kinds of issues plus get admonished by the Judge. So filing these claims can often result in a payment prior to any court appearance being necessary. In other words, your filing in Small Claims Court will leverage compliance by the Landlord.Also, if the Landlord has tried to make unreasonable deductions, the act of filing in Small Claims Court will soften their approach to the deductions, knowing they will lose most of them if they go to courtgiven most small claim courts biases in favor of Tenants over Landlords.


Does paying estimated income tax count toward earning credits that will help qualify for disability?

I assume you are talking about Social Security disability. No, there is nothing special about paying estimated taxes that would make you qualify for those benefits. You need to have work credit in an occupation that is covered by Social Security to earn credits.
