Hi Enasni ... rainy and chilly all day here and I have a warm jacuzzi awaiting :) Good luck Robin ...

The realtor is correct - you have the right to receive 24 hour notice of a showing. Notice of a showing is not asking permission, the LL (or agent) has the right to show the property. You cannot reasonably refuse entry to the LL (or agent). You do not have to be home at the time of the showing...

Had you been paying the remaining rent (that the vouchers did not cover) up until your unemployment ran out?

Utah requires a three day notice to be served for non payment of rent. So ... three days is legally acceptable for the LL to demand that you move, once the notice has been properly served.

MandyD is correct, your condition did not get you out of your obligation ... you owe the debt ...

You are the Landlord's tenant per your lease ... They are your tenants (month to month - at will) ... You need to follow your States Landlord/Tenant laws, which very likely require a 30 day written notice to vacate. If you give them notice today, they will have until May 31 to vacate the...

Yes, it is a legal and common practice. Your agreement is calendar month to calendar month (runs from the 1st of the one month to 1st of the next month.) You may choose to vacate the apartment earlier than the end of the month, but are still responsible for the whole month's rent per your...

Who's Liable is correct ... there is no loophole or exception. The LL can legally charge for rent (until apartment was rerented) and any other related costs due to your breach of the lease. If you did not pay, the management had every right to report it to the credit bureau(s).

Blonde Lebinese is correct ... in many States 69 degrees would be considered adequate.

Enasni ... good job holdin back :cool: Thanks South ... my thoughts exactly :p

The Statute has three methods - only one requires a 5% interest - the surety bond method. The second method is utilizing an interest bearing account with at least 75 percent of the annualized average interest rate payable on such account or interest at the rate of 5 percent (simple interest)...

Landlords must hold security deposits in one of three methods, but only one method requires interest to be paid. Most landlords use the method that does not require interest to be paid. The interest earned would be simple interest (EX: $1000.00 Security/Last Month would have earned $250.00...

No, the new owner must honor your lease. If the new owner wants you to leave early, you can either negotiate with the LL, or say "no thank you" and stay per your lease. The exact flip of the above answer - you can attempt to negotiate an early release with the LL, but the LL can say "no...

I am not familiar with your State's Landlord/Tenant Laws. That said, in many State's the LL (or agent) can access the premises with as little as 24 hours notice - some States require written notice, some do not. It is not about common courtesy - it is the LL's right as the owner. The notice is...

30 days written notice, as Who's Liable? stated. You should allow reasonable access for showings. You should be given written notice in advance of showings. Talk to the LL to see if you can come to a mutual agreement. You should not deny reasonable access. Normally, anytime between regular...
