Tenant/Landlord Security Deposit Conflict (State of California)?

In September 2006, there was an illegal activity at my old apartment and one of my guest was involved. The landlord posted a 3-day notice on my door on September 27, 2006. and on September 30, 2006, while I was away my family moved my stuff out because they didn’t fully understand the law. I spoke with the landlord re: my security deposit and she said that I should be receiving within 21 days. However, I did not receive anything, no letter. Later in December I received a letter from a collection agency requesting $210 in addition to the $1069 security deposit. I sent the landlord a letter saying that because they did not respond within 21 days they are to return my money, still they insist that they did. On the sheet it said that they charged me $700 for attorney fees. Is this valid to be charged an attorney fee with no court judgement? and it only stated on the lease, if you don’t respond to the 3 day notice and forced to go to court to be evicted. It is now 2007 can I sue?

landlord tenant case?

someone stole a few belongings from my friends apartment in september and the landlord said if she secure the apartment it would be deducted form the rent. My friend was pregnant and didnt feel safe so she got window gates and a new door lock installed. A few weeks later thats when she was told it would not be deducted. we are not even worried about her stolen belongings anymore but for her safety as well as her unborn child. Now the landlord is taking her to landlord tenant court and possible eviction. She feel the landlord has not live up to “warranty of habitability”. When she moved in she failed o notice that the kitchen cubburds were filled with insect- the apartment still gets insects and flies. The window to her fire escape wasnt installed correct leaving the window to open from the outside when it is locked on the inside. Then later being informed about this information by the super who in turn has a copy of everyones key………
then on top of that the super said he saw the person enter her apartment but failed to notify police. Which sounds fishy to me who would enter another persons apartment through the fire escape in broad daylight and were there is traffic? But anywway, she has police report- receipt for the work. What other documents do she need to win the case? the only problem is, is that she doesnt have a written document about the work beind deducted form nov rent- all she has is verbal agreement which they are now denying. So she hasnt payed rent becasue she wants to straighten everything out before- becasue it is confusing right now. Can you help assist her in winning this case? If you need more info email me
also when she spoke to the police they remembered this apartment for being robbed before she moved in the same way no forced entry. So She is pretty sure the landlords know that apartment has a history of being robbed and they still failed to secure the apartment from further burglary

Is there a charge for an escrow account?

My landlord is going to owner financing the home I am renting so I can purchase it. Their attorney has drawn up a contract. The attorney is claiming to be the escrow agent and is adding money into the monthly payment, I am guessing for an escrow fee ($11.69). Is that normal to pay an escrow fee. Should the lender/landlord pay this fee. We really don’t need one as I am paying the lender/landlord principal & interest and I am taking care of insurance and taxes myself.

Rate the collab – Turk Cobain (aka Tha Prince) & M. Thought?

Something Turk Cobain (aka Tha Prince) and me did, since a lot of my other questions about the Y!A collab were reported. It was turned into a two person collab. Sorry for all the people would were willing to jump on, I might try it again later on.

Instrumental:

Tha Prince:
I’m in the upper echelon of the section
Session starts when I segregate my thoughts like I’m Escher
And the thoughts integrate, and then evolve into compression
Freshened like a spit shine mixed with lyrical finesse
Steadily build up the pressure, like it was a LEGO set
Or that check that’s past due that you ain’t pay off yet
I’m the landlord, eviction is eminent when I finish
Dismember my foes, devour, and clean the dinner set
Never been a pet doctor, but I been a vet
I’m going on 4 years and don’t plan to finish yet
My recurrence is a burden to some
In mental tug of war, too strong , I’m certain I’ve won
My every bar is vehement, got a turbulent tongue
God gave this gift, I guess I’m the murderous son
But I rid of the pests, hard work, sit at my desk
And type rhymes, decide whether to uplift or deject
Either way I excite, and you see my greatness reflect
We sparking up the section, tryna make the cables connect
We just soldiers on a broadband war field
When in mass attack, they picking me like slaves in a corn field
The same veins of the slaves are engraved and paired
Unleash flames, verbal undertaker, ya grave prepared

M. Thought:
I speak words worse for IQs, I won’t Dumb It Down for nothing
I go East… and bite through the Love Locked Down for something
I destroy cats, hit them in the back with child toy bats
Literal transformer give me a sentence and I’ll form that
Born back 93 till infinity, I play man’s worse enemy
And rearrange like flowers, every dead corpse sent to me
I can rhyme clean, or a bit Nasty like I was God’s Son
I open the third eye to thoughts and block none
If any lyricist beats me in a battle, that’s delirious
I make p*ssies bleed like they have a period
Driving like Vin in the first Fast and Furious
Any rapper today knows my attack and fearing it
My style stays ageless like a verbal Dorian Gray
When on stage my words are forced in the state
I gave birth to a monster cause the abortion was late
I forced in the tape till this was worded as fate
My burden is great but I feel safe as a letterhead
Don’t worry, I’m the better rapper and you’re better dead
Rap’s in it’s dark ages and I have the light like Edison
I’m so sick when I rhyme that I might try medicine
Nah… hellhounds try bite mine, but I’m heaven sent
Think you’re Jesus? On the seventh day you’ll be dead again

I just found out that my landlord is trying to sell the house out from under me, what do I do?

I found out today that my landlord has apparently put the house I am renting up for sale. I moved in the end of February, and when I found this house and called her, she said that the house is for rent and she would be willing to work with me on the deposits. Nothing was mentioned about the house being for sale OR the house possibly selling while I was living her. Today I get home to find a car in my drive way that I did not recognize. I got asked and asked if I could help them. The mother and daughter said they where wanting to look at the house because it was for sale. I told them it wasn’t to my knowledge, and asked if they had the right address (apparently there is 2 of my addresses in my city) and promptly called my landlord that did not answer. I left a message saying hey there is a mother and daughter here to look at the house, they say it’s for sale and I was not aware of this. I talked with them for a little while longer and the left. I then went online to find out if the house was indeed for sale. I went on about 10 different sites and come to find out it is indeed for sale, and active. So I called the real estate agent that the lady was working with, and posed as a buyer. Come to find out IF the house is for sale (which it is according to her) and there is a tenant living in the house, the tenant and the landlord would have worked out an agreement for the possible sale of that house. Since my landlord never even told me that the house was up for sale I am wondering if you guys could help me figure out what to do. I have already called JAG (my hubby is in the military) and another attorney. I have attempted to call my landlord about 5x and still no answer. I know she is in violation of the lease because she has to give 24hrs notice that a some one is coming over. Unless it is an emergency she has to give notice. She didn’t and I come home to find people in my drive way wanting to look at the house. I am wondering what I can do tonight, what I should do when I actually talk to her, etc. ANY help is greatly appreciated.
THANKS

Landlord / Tenant Question?

Without notice, our landlord has presented my fiance and I with a letter from her attorney stating that effective immediately, our current landlord is no longer our landlord.

I have searched through hell and high waters to find this online, and I’m at a loss. Would someone who is well-educated in legal rights please help me to determine if this is a legal move. If not, what are the correct Minnesota law procedures in changing the landlord on the lease.

By the way, the lease I have signed was from August 1, 2009 – July 31, 2010. So legally, we are obligated to the rental agreement until that time.

Thank you for any help!

Looking for a lawyer that deals with apartment/landlord/housing issues….?

I am living in an apartment complex that is constantly making racist comments and ignoring situations when I call about them or when I have questions.

Now they are saying that I owe $30.00 in a late fee, on a payment, that wasn’t late. (I have proof.)

I tried to call today and ask for a better explanation, and the property manger was rude and slammed the phone down after saying that “She should have known better than to rent to us people, she never wanted our type in those apartments.”

Similar comments have been made about a mixed family that live there and an Indian (from India) family that live there.

What type of attorney do I contact? I want out of the lease without screwing over my roommate or my credit. If I have too, I want to sue them as well for racial discrimination.

I currently live in St. Louis, MO.
