Do people who live in transitional housing have the same rights as a regular tenant?

You need to understand the difference between what a YMCA offers compared to what a "transitional housing" offer. There is a very distinct difference. \nYMCA,s generally are not really geared for tenacy at all and those that "live" at one are defined as borders rather than tenants. Fire codes do apply and so do safety standards but the mayor of that city or town is the one who has the power to enforce them. YMCA's are private property and they can make whatever rules they see fit including  curfews

I believe that you are asking from the UK.  I am almost positive that your 'parkhold' is dealt with under the same rules as Landlord/Tenant disputes for ordinary dwellings. See the Citizen's Advice Bureau or a Solicitor.  However, have you spoken to your 'landlord'.  There may well be a good and proper reason for making the move, ie., your safety, the safety of others, the provision of better amenities etc.

Yes.  With most standard leases, you're protected if the property sells.  Still, you should read through your lease agreement thoroughly.  Once your lease term is expired, don't be surprised if the new landlord raises the monthly rent to try to get you to move out.  This is nothing personal, but new owners generally try to get rid of legacy tenants so that they can thoroughly clean, renovate, or remodel the space.

Yes, as the tenant and leaseholder, you are responsible for the actions of any one you allow past the threshold of your apartment. They are your guests.

If you state she lived with you over half the year, yes. keep in mind, that where someone habitates, and there "home of record" can be two different places.

yes, of course! they have the same rights. they are also balanced. no one can live without one or the other. they have their own special sparts.

This will depend on the tenancy agreement and country - laws in Scotland are slightly different from England.\n\nFor England the contract (shorthold agreement) would normally be for a fixed term.  I am assuming both tenants have signed this contract.  If one leaves then there would have to be a supplementary agreement signed by all contracted parties to remove and liabilities or obligations of the departing tenant.  The remaining tenant would then assume all responsibilities under the contract terms.  \n\nAlternatively, and what i would suggest, is a new contract is set up with the remaining tenant - if everyone is in agreement with this approach.  \n\nGood luck.

In West Virginia, I can't tell you for sure.  Generally, if they have a lease, they have a right to live there until it expires.  Once it expires, you can force them to move through a "writ of wrongful occupation" or similar court proceeding.  I would not turn off their utilities.  They could sue you for damages.\n\nSome states allow self-help if it is in the lease, but I don't know about West Virginia.  Some states (including mine) have laws that trump the language of the lease in this area and require you to go through a court procedure before evicting them.

Not as long as you are in a lease. Just to keep the peace, when you call the health department, explain to them that you are concerned about hostility and you'd like to remain anonymous. I'm sure they'd understand.\n\nYou can read about your renters rights, just search for it online, they are very specific. It may be called the Fair Housing Act ???

If someone else lives with you, as opposed to you having moved in with someone else, then you ARE head of household.  Regardless of how often anybody did anything.

You probably mean "right of abode" (note the B and the D). \nIt means the right to a place to stay, a home.

Rental laws vary from state to state.  Usually you are required to give some amount of notice to a tenant prior to entering the property for non-emergancy reason. \n\nAlso, check the rental agreement to see if it says anything about the upkeep of the property.  If she is required to maintain the property in a certain way and she is not it might be grounds for eviction.  \n\nI suggest you look on Google for your state's housing laws and tenant's rights.
