Landlord-Tenant Issues

Most leases have provisions that automatically terminates the lease in favor of the deceased tenant. However if the unit is damaged beyond normal wear and tear then the landlord may still keep the deposit.

Hello, guys. Eviction is the removal of a tenant from rental property by the landlord. The term eviction is the most commonly used in communications between the landlord and tenant. In some jurisdictions, it may also involve the removal of persons from premises that were foreclosed by a mortgage. I have no more idea about this. Recently I go through rocketeviction.com, which offers quick, efficient Nevada eviction services for apartment complex owners, high-rise condominium owners and other multifamily rentals in Clark County, Nevada.

A lease termination letter is a letter that a borrower will give to a lender releasing the borrower from a legally binding contract. It will be given when the lease comes to term or if the borrower and lender come to an agreement.

The landlord is generally only responsible for the building, not the belongings inside. That's what renter's insurance is for.

It all depends on what kind of notice your are referring to. In most cases it probably involves eviction. In this case always refer to the lease. It will specify the conditions for the notice. If the lease is not clear or poorly written in this area then follow the letter of the law in the state the notice is to be given regarding evictions and seek legal council.

The general rule with regard to landlord's entry of dwelling is that the landlord may enter such dwelling only if there is an emergency, landlord must enter, such as in the case of fire or flood, to protect his property from further damage; if the landlord has given a reasonable amount of notice, generally of at least 24 hours; for a routine inspection of the property, again, given reasonable notice; and if the tenant has requested some repairs to be done and the landlord is there to make such repairs.

Appliances that are furnished by landlord are their responsibility to repair. If it has been found that the tenant damaged such appliance, the landlord may recover such damage. If the appliance was furnished by the tenant in the first place, then he is responsible for the repair. In the case of certain changeable parts, for example, a toilet seat or the dripping pan on the stove, those parts of the responsibility of the tenant.

Yes and no. If a lease is not signed, then the tenancy is considered a month-to-month tenancy, which could be terminated at any time, given proper notice, if both parties agree to this.

If there is an emergency, urgent situation, or the need to check on someone's welfare an officer may enter a residence without a warrant. However, for a routine search and seizure, a warrant needs to be acquired before entry can be made.

Every state is different when it comes to being a landlord and renting out an apartment. It is usually a 30-60 day notice varying on the state when it comes to not renewing a lease.

Apartments became crowded.

Typically the owner of the property is responsible for the mortgage if they were the original signers of it. This cost is usually offset or covered completely through rental income.

If the rent is $750, $450 is mortgage, $100 for insurance, $100 for maintenance, and $100 for income.

As with most states the landlord holds a security deposit for as long as the tenant remains lawfully in the unit. He then has between 15 and 30 days to return the deposit or send a notice to the tenant of offset for damages.

Yes. No two apartments are exactly the same, so a landlord can charge whatever someone is willing to pay, which may be different for different units.

he/she should be given at least the same length of time as a rental payment.

i.e. if the rent is monthly he/she be given a month's notice, likewise if fortnightly ...two weeks notice etc.

It should be the responsibility of the landlord to repair broken windows. However, if the tenant or their guests caused the damage, the landlord can charge the tenant for the repairs. You should check the laws in your area.

In Florida the landlord doesn't have to store an evicted tenant's belongings. They can sell the belongings to recover rent and damage. In many other states, however, this is not true, but the landlord's obligations expire in 30 days. In South Carolina the items can simply be put out to the curb.

Depends which country you are from.

In the UK you would normally have him reported to the local authority for threatening behaviour,or the local Police if the threats are of a violent nature.

You may however,be advised to get an Court Injunction against him-[also known as a prohibitive steps order in UK]

Take advise from your local housing advisory body.

Landlords should be aware that all matters must be dealt with in writing and any eviction must be undertaken through court orders,and forceful eviction,intimidation of tenants construes a criminal offence.[Syed Amir]

Yes, unless you're under a written lease of a year which locks in the rent at the rate you are paying. If on a month-to-month or oral lease he can increase it as often as he wants if the state or local laws permit it.

Per the Ohio revised code: the landlord has 30 days to make a claim for damages, if he does not than he must return the deposit within that 30 days and if he refuses hire an attorney because the landlord is responsible to pay his attorney and yours plus double the deposit $750 becomes $1,500.

If that tenant has violated the lease or failed to pay rent, yes, the landlord may evict them. The law doesn't look at having children during the eviction proceedings unless the case involves eviction based on discrimination of familial status.

It's not discrimination for a person to fail to pay rent and subsequently be evicted for it.

If you are on the Housing Choice Voucher Program (also known as Section 8), he can call his Housing Program Coordinator (HPC) for help. The HPC can inspect the home and if it doesn't meet federal housing quality standards (HQS) the hPC can order the landlord to fix the problem or help you located another home to move into. If not then you can call the Code Enforcement bureau of your city or county and they can inspect the home and fine the landlord or condemn the home.

You can change your mind about a car lease but the dealer doesn't have to let you out of it. A lease is a binding legal agreement. However, most dealers will probably let you out if it if you ask them.

Sure. The unrestricted life tenant can do anything on the property he or she wants to, except perhaps waste or encumber it, for as long as he or she lives. This could include, for example leasing it to someone else entirely.

It's as if the life tenant "owns" the property, but only for life.
