If your rent is paid up to date and you receive a eviction notice do you still pay rent to the landlord or do you hold it?

As long as you're in the apartment your rent is still due. If the landlord is evicting you for any other reason except non-payment of rent you still must pay while the case is still pending. If it's for non-payment your court's clerk's office should tell you if you should pay the landlord or the Clerk's Registry.

After being evicted with no reason do you still have to pay rent?

No if you are evicted you do not live there anymore and there for don't have to pay rent.

What rights does a tenant have in an unlawful self help eviction by the landlord that led to great bodily harm and disability of the tenant that now faces lawful eviction and needs more time?

We have three different issues here: an illegal eviction, which appears to have been resolved; an allegation that the illegal eviction has resulted in great bodily harm and disability by the landlord; and that now the tenant needs more time (for what? I presume to find another dwelling).

It appears that the illegal eviction has been resolved, or the tenant would not be living on the property now and need more time. So this issue is cleared. Next, the tenant claims that during the illegal eviction the landlord has caused great bodily harm and disability to the tenant. This is an issue that needs to go to civil court for remedy. Now, the tenant states he needs more time - I presume time to find another place, now that a legal eviction process has begun. If the eviction process has begun due to lack of payment, there is no time that the court will give you to remedy this situation: you must follow the court's procedures in answering this eviction. In Florida, this means that the tenant will have to pay to the clerk of your court the amount of money the landlord claims the tenant owes them, in order to secure a court date. If the pending process result in a new month, the tenant will have to continue to pay the clerk's office the money that the tenant would've had to pay the landlord. If landlord wins the eviction, they will receive that money minus 14%.

Check and see if your lease says anything about this. If the lease is silent on this issue, you would have a strong argument that the landlord has no right to force you to move.

Can you break your lease if your landlord refuses to fix things?

Yes, you can break your lease if your landlord refuses to fix things, as long as this is specified in the lease. Your landlord is liable for keeping the home in working order and safe. Contact an attorney to help you with the lease.

In Oregon is a landlord required to replace carpet in a rental unit?

I always thought it was down to the landlords discretion, unless it was stipulated in the lease when you signed it that it was done every ten years? Most leases probably state that any fixtures/fittings/carpet wear are down to the tenant? I guess that is what you pay a deposit for? if after 7 years the carpets are worn out the landlord can either make you pay or take it out of your deposit?

How much should I be charging when business leasing?

Can a landlord call to the house without letting you know?

What does "call to the house" mean in American English? If you mean can the landlord come buy and let himself into the home that you have rented, in most American states the answer is "it depends." It will depend on the reason for his visit, and how much opportunity he had to give you notice of his visit, and what the consequences might be if he delayed entering your home until he had obtained your permission. It will also depend on what your lease contract or rental agreement says. Many leases say the landlord can go inside your home for routine repairs and servicing, including regularly-performed maintenance like spraying for bugs or changing the heater's filter.

Can a landlord appear at your door anytime to check for repairs or are they required to provide tenants with prior notification?

A landlord can enter an apartment without notice only in an emergency situation. Otherwise, they must provide reasonable notice that they need to enter your apartment to make repairs.

The time may vary in different jurisdictions but is generally 24-48 hours. You should contact your local landlord-tenant agency for more information. In some areas the landlord can enter the dwelling to check the conditions if the tenant is away for an extended period and no one else is present in the dwelling.

A landlord does not need a license to rent to you. They just need to own the property.

Can you check your own rental history?

  • There are various online resources available that allow a person to check rental history for a one time fee. Just do a search for "rental history" and quite a few will pop up. I advise to be cautious upon selecting one of these reports. Be wary of scams. In other words, don't just snatch up the first thing available without careful review. A few extra minutes of research can be the difference in your bank account and prevent identity theft.

Otherwise most Landlords follow this or a similar procedure:

  • Obtaining rental history is not so easy. Other characteristics of the tenant are easier to find out, ie - credit score, job history, monthly debt payments, monthly income, etc. By obtaining a credit report the Landlord can find out where the tenants have been living, verify that the person listed as the landlord is the one who owns the property, and then call for a reference. Previous landlords are the most obvious source. The problem with that is that some unscrupulous landlords will give a favorable reference for bad tenants in hopes that you'll rent to them. The landlord can verify that the person they name as their landlord actually is the owner of the property by checking the tax assessor's office. They also study the credit and criminal checks for addresses that the applicants may have somehow forgotten to mention. They also do reverse directory checks on phone numbers listed on the application.
  • Any of these (AND/OR) Reports are likely to be obtained by a Landlord for tenant screening. Credit report, Criminal report, Evictions search, OFAC search.
  • Please note: an OFAC search includes: FBI Watch Lists FBI Most Wanted FBI Most Wanted Terrorists FBI Seeking Information FBI Top Ten Most Wanted Interpol Most Wanted Non-cooperative Countries and Territories OFAC Sanctions Programs and Country Summaries OFAC's Specially Designated Nationals & Blocked Persons Politically Exposed Persons Terrorist Exclusion List Unauthorized Banks United Nations Consolidated List World Bank Debarred Parties Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade Bank of England Consolidated List Bureau of Industry and Security OSFI Consolidated List - Canada DTC Debarred parties European Union Terrorism List.

Is there a minimum temperature that landlords have to keep a property?

This differs by state. In Massachusetts, the State Sanitary Code requires that a heating system be *capable* of maintaining a dwelling's temperature at 68F during the day, and 64F at night. I suspect that most northern states are about the same.
