What is the proper format for a Notice of Withdrawal of Proof of Claim?
Just put that heading on it. The clerk will figure it out.
What did it mean to be blacklisted?
Being blacklisted means that either a person or a group of people have been put on a list indicating that they have done something to cause themselves to be avoided from being included in their practice of business or in personal involvements as well.
What do you do if your landlord is missing so you cannot pay rent?
You could go to the bank and open an 'escrow' account, and put the rent in there.
Eventually either your landlord, or your landlord's estate, or your landlord's creditors will come looking for it, and when that happens you want to have both the money itself and proof that you made a good faith effort to pay it in a timely fashion.
Do you continue to pay rent when a foreclosure sale has been postponed?
Yes. The tenant owes the rent to the landlord, right up until the foreclosure sale happens.
This all depends on who is renting. It will range from 10% to 20%.
Can homeover's association make your tenant pay rent to them?
I'm no lawyer but...
I expect the answer is no, not unless the owner agreed to this in writing.
It is common in mortgage contracts to have wording that says the tenants pay rent to the landlord as long as the mortgage payments are on time but as soon as the owner gets behind in payments, the bank can tell the tenant to pay the rent directly to them.
So if, for some reason, the owner signed a deal like that with the HOA, then this could happen. Without something in writing, the HOA shouldn't be asking for this.
Can a unlawful detainer be refiled?
You have only 5 days from when you get your notice. After that no.
== == If your landlord gave you 45 days notice to move in writing he owes you your deposit. If you have it in writing take it to a lawyer. You don't give a landlord notice if he gave you the notice!
Update/ His notice to me was verbal. He said he was bring something for me to sign instead I woke up and find a 4 sale sign in the yard. Then the phone called started "maybe it would be best if you stayed then no it would be best if you left" this went on for 3 week then I moved which i would have NEVER done if it wasn't their idea. with nothing in writing do I still have a case
I am really not sure on that because the law is written notice is required when you are moving or when a landlord asks you to move out. If your lease was not in writing than you definitely should get your deposit back. You should get a copy of the landlord tenant act for your area. Some lawyers might give you a free "first time" meeting. Ours did and he has helped us greatly over the past years. Since i have no idea where you are from you could check the phone book for a government agency for renters rights. Good Luck!

Will you get an eviction notice once your time is up on a foreclosure?
In almost all cases, you should receive a notice from the county sheriff's department at least a few days before the scheduled eviction. However, it is never a good idea to trust government bureaucrats to be efficient, as that is one thing they almost never are.
There are numerous other ways to find out how much time you have, other than trusting in someone from the sheriff to come and post a notice on the door.
First of all, you should know when the county foreclosure auction took place. That will give you a good idea of when your ownership interest in the property was transferred to the high bidder at the auction.
Then, you should look up the state foreclosure laws to determine how much time homeowners have to stay in the home after the sheriff sale. Some states allow for a redemption period where the foreclosure victims are given more time even after the sale in order to pay back the amount they owed on the house.
Redemption periods differ widely by state, with some having just a few weeks to others having up to a year after the foreclosure auction. Of course, other states do not have a redemption period at all. This is why it is essential to look up the state laws, so you do not move out the property too soon or too late.
But the court, after the sheriff sale is over, should send you a notice to appear for the eviction hearing. At this hearing, the bank will be given possession of the house and an order will be given to the county sheriff to evict the former homeowners. However, the most important reason to go to this hearing is simply to get more time to save the home or move out of the property.
The judge can grant you a few extra days or weeks to obtain a new apartment and begin moving out. This can't be done, though, if no one shows up for the hearing in the first place. The lender will just be given possession and the order will go out to the sheriff to evict as soon as possible.
What is the difference between tenancy at will and tenancy for fixed period?
A tenancy at will can be terminated by providing a 30 day notice, generally. A fixed period lease cannot be terminated until the fixed period has ended.
Is a long lease or short lease better?
I'd suggest finding an easy lease with flexible terms which will serve you better in the big picture than differing between a long term or a short term lease. Leasing shouldn't be complicated and finding an easy lease (http://officewarehousespace.net/easy-lease-program/) where you can name the terms is the ticket.
Can an Arkansas landlord tell tenants who can visit the property?
yes; if the LL has reason to believe that drugs or illegal activity are being
conducted, he can refuse entry to visitors.
Can a landlord evict a tenant for loud music?
Yes, indeed. The landlord is responsible for the other tenants "quiet enjoyment" (legal term) of their apartments. Also, most leases contain clauses that require you obey the laws of the town where you are located. Most towns have noise ordinances, so an eviction is probably taking it easy on you. They (the other tenants who are disturbed) can just as easily call the police and have you fined.
This of course depends on various state or local laws in the US and different laws may apply in other countries.
Can you break a lease because you have found out a sexual predator lives in your neighborhood?
No, a landlord has no control over who moves into a neighborhood. Where the sexual predator can live depends on terms set by the court. What one can do is find out if the person has registered with the local police department, as is required by law. If the person is breaking the terms of their release and/or probation, they can be reported and perhaps be forced to move or even be incarcerated. Most sexual predators cannot live within a specified distance of schools, playgrounds, places where children are prevalent. These laws will differ by state, and the best choice is to consult the local police for advice. DON'T BE FOOLED. Reread your lease. My lease says that under the "Legal Use" section a "resident shal not violate any criminal or civil law" or "annoy or molest" a resident or neighbor. If you see this person "annoying" or "molesting" you (this could even be brushing up against you sexually in a room) or your children write a letter describing what happened asking the landlord to terminate the lease of the sex offender. If he doesn't do that, you have proof (the letter) that the landlord has made the place "inhabitable" and therefore you must break your lease since they have broken their agreement. Is a landlord required to make sure you have running water and yet allow you to live next to a dangerous criminal? What is safety? GIVE ME A BREAK! CA

When renewing a lease new walkthrough?
When renewing a lease a new walk through is often required. The new walk through serves as a protection for the leasee and lessor to ensure the property is in good condition and make a record of any improvements or changes that need to occur. Both parties should take photos at the beginning of the lease period and at the end both to document any damage and/or prove there was no damage.
