You are in breach of contract and costs will start running up for your liability, until he gets his property back. You will not make any friends.\nMaster.

The fastest answer is to ask the Realtor to site the law. If you get the run around talk to his/her broker.\n\nIn California I'm not aware of such a law.\n\nAn honest open discussion with your landlord may go along way, especially if they have re-rented the property or can quickly.\n\nBest to you.

Highly unlikely, but also depends on city and or state landlord tenant laws where you live.  If you truly feel wronged by the situation I would address the landlord directly about the issue.  Although, in most cases the laws favor the landlord so you have to determine whether or not you really feel he was liable and negligible in the situation.

only if you skip out on paying the rent, not move on time or if you damage things and she doesnt take care of the bill before they send a collection agency after her. So, bottom line... nothing will show unless you dont pay or take care of the place.

I know I am not answering your question, but I do not know a place to send you for the information you are looking for.  I am a Landlord of 23 properties in Florida and I can answer specific questions you may have, to a limit.  Insurance you need to have homeowners Insurance and tell your agent that the house will be a rental, that way you are not paying for all items in the house, unless of course you are renting a furnished unit.  I have no special account, all the monies go into my personal account and all repairs come out of my personal account.  You will pay tax on the profit you make, I am not an accountant so I don't know what your tax implications would be, an accountant can answer that for you.  If you have any other questions please feel free to add details post another question or you can email me through Yahoo Answers.  Good Luck KG

In California, if the landlord finds another to rent the property right away, you would be responsible for any days that it wasn't rented.  If you have one yr. lease that could be a problem, if it is a slow rental market.  You could save money by moving in, but if there is a problem, tell the landlord.  They might have a heart!

Depends on your lease agreement. I would contact the housing authority for advise. They have a website  I beleive. G/L!

It all depends on the contract that you signed.  Most of the time you get the deposit back in full if you do a good job cleaning and maintaining the place.  If you don't, they keep it to go toward your lack of maintenance.  If it's part of your contract that you do get your first month rent back, then you will (or should).  Check your copy of the contract to see for sure.  If it's not part of your contract to get your first month back, you probably shouldn't worry about getting the deposit back either because he kept it for this month's rent instead.  Again, review your contract.

Wow, what a strange situation.\nIn general, landlords MAY NOT engage in "self-help" (i.e. throwing your stuff out the door) when a residential tenant fails to pay rent.  Assuming that your lady actually has rights to sub-lease the property to you, her only action would be to file an eviction / unlawful detainer action, with notice to you to cure the rent deficiency. Failure to do so gives you a cause of action  against her, especially if you incurred any damage to your property, etc.\nBut this situation is complicated by the fact that (a) you're a roommate and not just a tenant, (b) she is clearly nuts, and (c) she may or may not have the ability to lease / sublease the place to you anyway.  \nSince it doesn't sound like you have a written lease, but rather a week-to-week lease, it's certainly best if you get out of there ASAP.  (I know that's kind of a bummer, since you probably are getting a good deal.) \nThese landlord / tenant disputes are one of the areas of expertise of Legal Aid -- they can usually help you if you cannot afford an attorney.  Good luck.

First check your lease - if there's any mention of that you can be evicted for ANY infraction, then you've got a hard road ahead of you. If there's no mention of it, speak to your landlord and let him/her know that it was a mistake and that you have paperwork to prove it.\n\nGood luck!

As one attorney always told where is the foal? If this has hurt your credit, or damaged you from consideration for the new rental unit, you may have a case and my suggestion is to contact a an attorney who knows real estate law.\n\nGood luck

Sounds shady to me.  Definately take them to court.  I hope you have proof, though.  like a receipt from the post office, a bank statement showing your cancelled rent check, or something.  If you can prove that you sent it on time, and the post office lost it, i don't know if you are responsible or not.  Let a judge decide.  Then move if you aren't in a lease.

Every state landlord/ tenant laws different. I own apt buildings in two different states and closing escrow on another one within a few day. So I know landlord/ tenant issues.\n\nI'm not a lawyer or paralegal but I know contract law and work with them all the time so I'm rather knowledgeable on lease laws. \n\nFrom your question it sounds like you have no written agreement with your landlord. That is why the judge didn't here your side. It doesn't matter who you had rented the apt from originally. \n\nOwners change property managers often but it doesn't change anything for the current tenants unless they resign the agreement.  \n\nAnything not in writing come down to his/her word against yours. Being he owns the property you have no legal standing to the property except as a renter.  \n\nI'm surprised the judge didn't tell your husband that and also that he was in violation of the law. A renter can not hold back rent to blackmail the landlord in fixing something. If that was the case every renter would do it for what they deemed needed fixing. \n\nNow, if it was a safety issues electrical, plumbing and major leak, things like that and the landlord doens't fix it within a reasonable time. The word is reasonable and it isn't 10 min after reporting the problem. \n\nOne can have it fixed (hire a professional) an give the landlord or management company the bill. Then if they don't reemburse you, take them to court. But, you still have to pay the rent.\n\nSorry for your situation but there is nothing I or anyone can tell you to make it better.\n\nBut, I can give you some advice for the future. \n\n1. Inspect the property your planning on renting. Just as you would a car, house anything your buying from an individual or company.  \n\n2. If it is major issues don't move in until it is fixed. One persons minor might be anothers major issue. Like covers over light fixtures minor but it looks bad.  It is another thing NOT having covers over electrical switches that is a safety issue and should be considered major and done prior to moving in.\n\n3.Get everything in Writing. Your word against anothers doesn't hole water in the court of law. \nSome places court dates are booked up so far out because of so many cases that that judges only look at the relevent evidence and ask very few questions before deciding. \n\nLast year I went to court as witness we were 5th. We were in front of the judge in less then two hours. Two before us were done in less then 10 minute. There were some real unhappy people but there wasn't anything to back up the evidence. Nothing in writing.  \n\n4. Most important thing, READ WHAT YOUR SIGNING BEFORE SIGNING. If you do not understand what is written ask or get legal advice from someone who knows legal contracts. Paralegal that know contracts are a lot cheaper then a lawyer. \n \nGood luck.

If they are paying the rent directly to the landlord, then the landlord was notified when they moved in.  In that case, a new lease SHOULD have been drawn up with all three of your names on it and all three signatures.  Otherwise, YOU are taking full responsibility for any and all damages to the house.  Not a good idea.\n\nBut since yours IS the only signature and you are taking full responsibility, you are within your rights to ask them to vacate the property.  They have no legal rights to be there if they don't have a lease.

No! not unless it states in your lease "tenant may use security deposit for last month's rent"..but usually it will state that you can't use it for rent...other wise the landlord must return your deposit at the end of your agreement less damages (excluding normal wear and tear)
