After 5day notice, I can pay the rent, but not late fees. Can I be evicted for late fees? Las Vegas is home.?

You need to talk to your land lord about that.  But most of the places I have lived in have been willing to work with me if I was ever late on rent.

Month to Month is exactly that.....You must give 30 days notice....So tomorrow you will pay July's rent and give Notice of Intent to Vacate......\n\nEven though you are moving out next week, you are responsible for the entire month's rent....\n\nQuite frankly,  a polite letter together w/ the rent check will suffice...you don't need to do an actual Pleading.

Because it's likely in the lease. Rent might be different if more people were living there. I know that if I'm to have a guest for more than 2 weeks I need to inform my landlord and get their permission.

What does your lease say?  If you are at the end of your term, then you start renting "month to month" and the landlord can raise the rent, usually with 30 days notice.  You of course have the option of moving out.  If the rent hike is too high, you might try talking with your landlord first.  It's usually easier to deal with steady, paying tenants than trying to re-rent to a new tenant.  Good luck!

there is no legal justification of the three FREE months' stay that she is insisting on - here in the philippines or anywhere else in earth - unless you have it on your contract.  but assuming that there is no mention of this in your contract, there is no legal basis for this.  there is, however, a special law in the Civil Code and in the Rental Reform Act of 2002 (RA 9161) which states that you have to inform your tenant of your intention to terminate lease at least three months before the intended date.  maybe that is what she is quoting, only she got it all wrong.  if your contract is legal and not yet expired, this special law may not be followed, depending on what you can amicably settle on a primary hearing (that is, contract first before special laws - supplementary in these cases).\n\nAs for her not being able to pay five months of rent, this is a different story.  after the third consecutive month of her inability to pay the rent, you have the right to judicial ejectment, wherein after 5 days of notice (demand letters, written notices signed by both parties), you have the right to file for unlawful detainer and have your tenant ejected immediately.  this is your right that is given by the civil code.\n\nwhat you can do is to consult a legal professional (civil lawyer) and file for a complaint on the arbitration committee of your community or town.  if you do not reach an amicable settlement, it is your right to file for action against your tenant.

check out this web link \nwww.thelandlordacademy.com. \n\nYou have not received any such notice as of yet as you had stated ....no less than 5 days which would be Dec. 3. They gave a 30 day notice as to the rent increase, although, looks like they would also give you the option to move out by Dec 8 with out penalty. But do not expect them to let you stay for the 750.00.

He has all the legal right to charge you an extra fee for renting after a lease and not resigning a lease....this is 100% common practice in all rentals.\n\nDo you have to give notice that you are moving?  No...but then he doens't have to give you back your deposit nor does he have to give you a good referance for your next place.  After all, you stiffed him by not giving a notice in turn making him lose rent money, why would he want to be nice to you?\n\nLandlord cannot control outside contractors for work.  All he can do is put in a call to one and wait for their earliest date.  Just because they are a landlord doesn't mean a technichian will show up inside of 2 hours.  When you have issues with power, heat, etc and its either hot or cold out, you will wait extra long for help as there are many that need help right when you do.  So sit in line and wait patiently.  Since it is not below 40 degree's nor you have mentioned any kids, by law he does not have to guarantee power or heat if its out and below or above any temperatures.  Nor does he need to compensate you for hotel or any place you stay outside of your apartment when no power or no heat.  That responsibility is totally on you.  But now if you have home owners or renters insurance, then these will help pick up the tab for such issues.\n\nYour comment on him trying to evict you...if you are late....by law he has all the right to kick you out.  If you refuse, the police will remove you and charge you with tresspassing.  And by law he can toss your stuff to the curb and allow anyone to take it.\n\nYou have no fight as all you have done is either your fault or past there ability to control it.  Welcome to the real world, welcome to the world of renting and welcome to learning a few laws that have been on the books for ages.\n\nYou forget...that is their property, not yours...your are "borrowing" it for as long as you have paid.  If you don't pay, even for 1 day, why would they have to let you stay?  They can rent it to someone else that will pay.\n\nMove if you want, but rentals are rentals, same laws no matter where you go.

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.

I don't believe you can.  Either way you are liable for the rent till the end of the contract or get someone to sublet your place, if it is allowed.\nYour company might be willing to pay for this if they are the ones asking you to move.  Most do.\nRead what your rental contract says.  It should all be there.

I live in California and I got my first apartment when I was 19.  I had a really good paying job so I didn't really struggle.  By law they have to pay 2 utilities.  Usually it's water and trash. What I thought was kind of weird was that there was a time when my rent was late, and I had to pay a 60 dollar late fee and write a statement as to why my rent was late.  I thought that was a bit much.  Also, If I had someone over for more than 3 days, I had to get permission from the landlord and stuff. It's pretty easy if you are tight with your money for the first couple of months so you can see exactly how much your utilities are

Having a real estate liscence and knowing the landlord tenant laws considering my family's business is in rental properties, I assure you that for being two days late it will be impossible for the landlord to evict you... On the 5th she can give you a 7Day note which will tell you that you have seven days to pay in full or she will start court proceedings, and those last usually two weeks after that.  It is impossible for a lnadlord to evict a tenant within two days.  I've had to evict people before for not paying rent at all, and with no intentions of paying it and it took til the 26th of that month before the authorities will come to evict.  This I can guarantee, because I've done evictions in FL, IL, AZ, NM, and TX... Impossible to go through the court for a proper eviction in less than two weeks, and the court will always give you a chance to pay it and stay

New Jersey has very specific laws.  \n\nIf you are even one day late with the rent, the landlord can file for eviction based upon non-payment.  A grace period is the period before you are charged a late fee and has nothing to do with the day your rent is due.  If you rent is due on the 1st and they don't have it by midnite, they can file the summons & complaint at 9:00 am on the 2nd.  There is no "30 days" or whatever in New Jersey.  Filing for non-payment requires no prior notice unless your landlord put it in your lease that they would give you notice.\n\nIf you don't have a lease, your landlord cannot charge you late fees or legal fees. \n\nIf you live in a rent controlled unit, most towns have limits on the late fee that can be charged.  Other than that, the late fee is subject to a reasonableness test that varies from county to county.  Usually it runs around 10%.\n\nIf you do have a lease that lists late fees and attorney fees as "additional rent" you will have the fees taken out of your deposit if you don't pay.\n\nBut the really good news is that in New Jersey, landlords are limited to "reasonable" actual attorney fees ... and $500 is laughable since you didn't even make it to the court appearance stage.  \n\nThe filing fee on a non-payment case in New Jersey is anywhere from $27 to $32, depending on what county you are in.  To do the actual paperwork involved in filing a non-payment complaint, the going rate for an attorney in New Jersey is anywhere from  $75 to $200.  The complaint would have been statutorily dismissed when you paid the rent, so there would be no court appearance fee.\n\nLook at the summons & complaint you received.  It should have the name of the attorney or firm that prepared and filed it.  If you didn't get a summons & complaint then your landlord is lying about having filed because there is no way to stop the process once it is started.  If he tries to tell you that he or they called the court and "told them not to serve you because you paid" then he is lying.  You would have been served anyway, and the notice of dismissal would have been sent to the court separately.\n\nIf you were served a summons & complaint but it wasn't prepared by AND signed by an attorney, then your landlord is lying.  Make sure an attorney signed it, and that your landlord just didn't do it himself and insert the name of a lawyer or firm.\n\nYour landlord had every right to file (assuming he actually did), but he can't pull numbers out of his butt.  If he filed himself, the most he can charge you is the actual filing fee of $27 to $32.  He can't charge for his time, gas, etc.  It's strictly actual cost.\n\nIf he tries to take an imaginary fee of $500 out of your deposit, you can sue him in small claims under the consumer fraud statute.  That means he will have to pay you $1,000 (double what he owes you) for trying to cheat you.\n\nHow many units are in your building?  Is it owner occupied?  Were you notified of the location of your deposit in writing within 30 days of giving it to him?  I'm asking because there may be a way to protect yourself from him trying to deduct anything from your deposit depending on your answer.  Post the answer to those questions as additional info, and I will update my answer to tell you if you can do this or not.

Check your CC&Rs (Conditions, Covenants and Restrictions) which sets out the rules for condo residents.  It should set out specifically what consequences there may be for unpaid fees to the HOA.  But I agree, why don't you just pay it?

It is unlikely that they reported you if you are only a week late paying.  \n\nA smart landlord starts the eviction process immediately, it is both a way of encouraging tenants to pay up to avoid eviction and it allows them to get a non-paying tenant out as soon as possible.

If you have a lease with the tenant then no cause they paid the rent but you are allowed to impose a late fee. You can start eviction papers again if they go late but then all they have to do is pay the rent and they are fine, what I would sugeest is the next time they are late is you file for eviction go to court and ask the judge to ammend the lease to state if tennant is late again that they will freely leave.

As for entering your basement when you're not at home, the landlord is supposed to give a MINIMUM of 72 hours written notice of "Intent to enter premises". To do anything else would be a violation of the "Landlord Tenant Act" in your area.  If you really have concerns about it you can pick up or have mailed to you a copy of the LTA from your State or County's Housing Authority.   As for his harrassment of you for rent being paid so long as your are paying your rent in a timely manner he has no right to so even if you were to be paying late his only legal right is to begin the eviction process, 3 10 and 20 day notices, finally court involvment and sheriff's removing you from the property.\n\nWith this in mind, you have a very real possibilty of staying there rent-free if his behaviour continues. Following up with a lawsuit in your favor he could be odered to give your either monetary compensation, housing compensation ('X' months rent at no charge to you). not too mention having to walk a very thin line with you following all of that. Since his action could be construed as retaliatory, therfore further punishable as prescribed be law.

If you are uncomfortable with the terms of the lease or if you do not think you can abide by the terms of the lease, then do not sign the lease.  Look elsewhere -- there's lots out there.  Remember a couple of things though:  Most leases will charge a late fee if you're late paying your rent, no matter what date your rent is due.  In other words, let's say your rent is due on the 10th of every month but you get paid on the 1st and the 15th of every month, you either have to save your money on the 1st so that you have enough money to pay rent on the 10th, or you have to save enough money on the 15th.  Either way, you have to make sure you have enought money for rent day.  If you encounter an emergency while on a "normal" lease, you could still end up paying a late fee (often as much as 10% of the monthly rent).  For example, on a "normal" lease, if your rent is due on the 1st of every month and you get paid on the 1st of every month, suppose you had a medical emergency or your car broke down that day and you had to use your rent money?
