Generally, tenants are required to live in condominiums in the same way that owners are required to live there. Several steps must be in place, however, according to best practices, in order for an association to evict a tenant. First, there must be evidence that the tenant has been given all the pertinent documents that outline how an owner lives in the property. Then, that the owner sent a copy of the lease with the tenant to the board, and prior to occupancy, cleared the prospective tenant's financial and background reports to the owner's satisfaction. The association must have been involved in addressing any 'rules' violation against the tenant through the owner, that have not been satisfied by the tenant or the owner. Finally, the association's records must show that the board has the power to evict a tenant, given an owner's inability to do so.
File for an injuctive order declaring that the person is not a tenant, and they have to leave. A Housing Court might be a good idea, if available. Added: Agree with above answer - also- it may depend on how long the 'squatter' has been occupying the premises. He might have become a 'tenant' by 'right of adverse possession.' You will have to do some checking into the local statutes that govern landlord/tenant relations in your julrisdiction.
An eviction is a matter between the landlord and the tenant, not neighbor-to-neighbor. If a neighbor is causing problems you have the right to call the police to help you. However, if you know that your neighbor is on Section 8, and you feel that a violation of their voucher has occurred or is occurring, such as having too many people living there, you can write to the Housing Authority that is handling their voucher (in some areas there are a few Housing Authorities that can service the voucher for the same property).
Legal aliens in the United States have many rights, including the right to work, attend school, and receive protection under the law. They also have the right to own property and access certain benefits and services. However, they do not have the right to vote in federal elections or hold certain government positions.
This quote means that possessing the legal or moral permission to do something does not necessarily make it the right or ethical choice. Just because one is entitled to do something does not make it the correct action to take. It emphasizes the distinction between legality and morality.
If your name is on the deed as a grantee, then you have an ownership interest in the property. It may be tenant-in-common or joint tenant (with right of survivorship). In either case, you have an "undivided" co-ownership of the property.
Yes. They mean the same thing: property ownership automatically passes to the survivor.
No. Survivorship means that if one owner dies the other automatically becomes the sole owner of the property. The two do not need to be married. State laws vary. In some jurisdictions husbands and wives are automatically considered joint tenants when they purchase real property. In other states the tenancy must be declared in the deed. Simply stating "as joint tenants" creates a survivorship in some jurisdictions. In others the words, "as joint tenants with the right of survivorship" must be used.
Yes, you can show survivorship in several ways: tenants by the entirety, joint tenants, and joint tenants with right of survivorship (required in some states).Some deeds even say, "... grant to X and Y, husband and wife, as joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common," in case there was any room for doubt.Unless your local laws say otherwise, "joint tenant" is all you need to say, as it implies the undivided joint interest between the named parties and the agreement that the last surviving member of the list acquires the full remaining property at that time.Caveat:Deeds should always be drafted by a professional who is familiar with the laws in your jurisdiction. Errors made by non-professionals can be costly to correct if they can be corrected. The parties must discuss their needs with an attorney who will then explain their options and draft a proper deed.
Since same sex couples need to be pro-active in the case of inheritance, your partner can and should transfer the Colorado property to both of you as joint tenants with the right of survivorship. However, you should seek the advice of an attorney to assure that the deed is drafted properly. In some states creation of a joint tenancy by an individual who already owns property requires that the property be conveyed to a third party then back to the two who will become joint tenants with the right of survivorship. In those states the interests must be equal and created at the same time. That process can be accomplished by an attorney using a straw deed. If not done properly the deed could fail to create a joint tenancy with the right of survivorship. In that case the tenancy would default to a tenancy in common and your partner's half would pass to his heirs at law and not to you.
No they are different types of real property co-ownership. Tenancy in common is a type of co-ownership where two or more people ("tenants in common") own the property. It is the default tenancy in many jurisdictions when the tenancy is not stated in a deed with multiple grantees. Tenants in Common:Can own the property in equal or unequal sharesHave the right to the use and possession of the whole of the propertyPass on their share of the property to their heirs when they dieIn a joint tenancy the desire to create a joint tenancy with the right of survivorship must be so stated in the deed. The interest of any deceased joint tenant passes automatically to the surviving joint tenants. A joint tenancy is created only if the following four conditions, called the Four Unities, are met:Time- All the tenants acquired their interest at the same time.Title- All the tenants have the same title.Interest- All the tenants have an equal share.Possession- All tenants must have an equal right to possess the property.
No, a tenant has the right to have a visitor. If the visitor is committing a crime, then the co- tenant has the right to call police. If the general conditions are unfavorable for the cotenants they should move. Generally, cotenants do not have the same obligations under a lease as does a main tenant.
Technically, joint tenancies in real property have been abolished in Oregon. The Supreme Court of Oregon has added, "The grantees herein do not take the title in common but with the right of survivorship," this grants concurrent life estates to the parties as tenants in common, with a contingent remainder to the survivors. This has the same practical result as joint tenancy with right of survivorship.Palmer, Ralph & Frank, Gregory Oregon Real Estate Practices, Finance, Law (1997).
If the landlord has such an agreement between a tenant and his subleaser, then the subleaser is no longer a subleasor, and becomes a co-tenant, who would have the same rights as the original tenant. Most landlords don't like subleasers because they are not bound by the same terms as the tenant. By the same token the subleaser is in a bad position because he doesn't have the same rights as a tenant, and can be kicked out at any time.
If you sublease a house you have the same rights as the original tenant. You have a right to a habitable house m and timely repairs.
No, they are not the same at all.
Prior to having the tenant sign, the landlord would insert the sentence into the lease, "The landlord reserves the right to terminate this lease with ninety days notice." Tenant may request the same terms, or take the tenancy as offered.
