Landlord-Tenant Issues

Depends on the state.

start looking for a room mate and you pay half and they pay half it should work

I know of no state that requires a written agreement. If a tenant pays money, and a landlord lets them in, that's an agreement.

Depends on the country you have in mind. In some countries a verbal agreement before witnesses can already be binding. But in most countries a lease agreement is only binding when it has been put in writing and has been signed by the lessee.

In order to evict a commercial tenant, they have to had broke a rule in the contract. If they have done that, the owner has to file for eviction in legal court, from there they will receive their notice to leave.

If the tenent is or does get sick because of mold, animal dander pest or otherwise, asbestos particles, lead paint dust or other airborne pollens it may be worth it for the landlord to have the system cleaned. With all of these air pollutants easily tested for today in easy to use containers available in hardware stores, the headaches from litigation and court fees can be avoided by a less expensive cleaning. Unfortunatley unless you can prove that these bad particles were brought there by the tenent you're fighting a losing battle as a landlord. Now if you're the tenent and you're allergic to common household dust, the burden may be on you. With all of the hepa filter shop vacs and stove pipe cleaners out there, I bet you could get 90% of the debris out of the vents with a simple cursory cleaning and replacing the filter on the furncae with a more advanced filter. This would require you to get off your butt and work together.

This depends on the type of dwelling and the state that you live in. In most apartment buildings the landlord pays for the water. But not in all. For houses, duplexes, trailers, and other detached property, normally the tenant pays the water.

Normal eviction notices are issued 30 days in advance. But if certain situations warrant it, the landlord can evict giving only 3 days notice. After that, the landlord can call the local constables and have you arrested if you haven't vacated the premises. IF that happens, one could say bye-bye to all their furniture and personal possessions, too.

It should also be remembered that different countries has differing legislation regarding eviction. As do individual states

Boarding or rooming houses

You will need to check with Florida laws on squatter rights. If not done properly, she could sue you in a court of law. You must give written notice of her to evacuate. In most states this is a 30 day notice. Once notice is given and the time frame expires, you may then proceed to take her to small claims court to recover any unpaid wages or damages.

That depends on the laws of your state. You should seek some legal information, either from an attorney or a court.

Yes, you still pay rent, because being bankrupt does not entitle you to free housing.

In most circumstances no.

The liability portion of the landlords insurance policy provides some protection for the landlord, but only if some neglect or other type of liability can be proven on the part of the landlord.

it depends on the type of lease you have and what it states as a proper termination period. If you are on a month-to-month tenancy, the landlord gives you 30 days notice and you move out during that 30-days and have paid a full month's rent, then no, he cannot keep your deposit. If you leave without paying the full month's rent, then yes, your landlord has the right to keep your deposit as "unpaid rent money" unless he/she is able to re-rent the apartment. If they re-rent it, then you will get some of your deposit (prorated). Hope this helps. :)

The tenant owes the rent to the landlord up the day of a foreclosure sale.

In CA you have thirty to sixty days to move out by law. However, this only applies when The Landlord wishes to evict you for no reason, or a personal, unstated one. A landlord can evict you and give only three day notice if you fail to pay your rent on time, violate a provision of the lease or used the premise for unlawful purposes, as well as a slue of other reasons. Generally you will receive thirty or sixty days to evacuate the premise under normal circumstances.

There are numerous things that a person should ask when they are about to lease the apartment. You should always ask about the neighborhood, any known leaks in the apartment, and any crime in the apartment complex.

Answer 1:

It depends on how the lease is worded. Specifically, does the lease address the number of people that can live on the premises? It's unusual to see a single tenant get married, have his wife move in with him, and see problems arise. On the other hand, move in ten buddies from the local bar and trouble will come.

Also check to see if subleasing is disallowed.

Usually, it's easy to renegotiate a lease in this manner.

Answer 2:

That depends on what your lease says. I've rented several places (apartments & houses alike) and the rules on "stay-in-guests" and sub-leasing was always different. At my first apartment, anyone not on the lease could not stay more than three-days without written permission from the apartment owners acquired at least two-weeks in advance. Sub-leasing was also not permitted (per rules set in lease)

The house I'm renting now does not care. I have an extra bedroom there and I occasionally rent it out for a month or two at a time to friends/family in need of a cheap place to crash. As long as the rent is paid, the house is well-maintained and we don't break the HomeOwner Association laws, the home-owner is pretty lenient on who lives there.

I've lived in other places that would allow you to amend a lease contract to add another person to it, but until that person was background checked and approved to live there, they could not move in and if they moved in and later failed the background check, they could be evicted.

It all depends. Read through your lease very carefully and if you are not sure, then speak with your landlord. Ultimately, because it is his house and you are just renting it (s)he has the final say in who can live in the house.

He could, but it depends on the wording of the lease. Normally there is only one tenant on a lease: the rest of the legal occupants are considered part of the household. A landlord can kick out the one tenant and create a new lease for another occupant, making him the tenant.

Immediately contact the landlord to make payment arrangements. Most landlords will stop an eviction if a tenant will work in good faith to pay the rent due. If the landlord insists that you leave, you should answer the eviction complaint (if you have been served one) and contact an attorney or tenant's rights group in your area.

You should be able to remove all of your belongings within a certain time frame. However, it is not very long: maybe a day or so. Usually people have received warning that eviction will occur and they should plan accordingly to remove everything within that time.

Residential lease forms are used to create a contract between a landlord and tenant. They state the amount due and how often along with what each party is responsible for. They are considered a legal, binding agreement in a court of law.

?? They can file all the legal paperwork and move any personal property you have on the property to the curb. If you have received a notice of eviction, you have been evicted, but they can't physically remove you from the property if you are not there.
