Has anyone had any major problems with previous landlords?
My girlfriend and I are dealing with our previous landlord over a couple issues, one of them involving their son and his wife who used to rent a room and cracked my girlfriends laptop screen. And the other issue is its been 17 days and they haven't returned any of the deposit yet. We'll be taking them to small claims over the first issue and probably for the second as well.

I hate dealing with this shit.

 

my landlord for my business keeps raising my rent every year, the previous owner of the business she never raised it.

 

Is your lease only one year then you keep extending it?

 

yeah. she has right to raise it by 5% in the lease. same lease as my buddy who owend it for 4 years before me. never once did she raise his rent. and the guy who he bouight it off of had the place for 8 years and she raised it once on him.

 

I don't think legally they can raise rent while you are in your lease. Thats part of the reason having a least.
I would look up landlord tenant laws in your state.


Oh I forgot to say since its been over 14 days since we have been officially out with no written list of why they are deducting our deposit or us receiving our deposit, we legally get 100% of the lease back. If we take it to court the court can give us 200% of the deposit back.

 

Marshy!
There is no reason why he should not give you back your deposit

Unless there was mass repairs
or there was and issue with the last rent payment.

I don't know what the laws are in washington state
but you should see every penny of your depsoit back!

 

Yeah. They're just stupid and slow. Its a pain dealing with this shit. They aren't answering my emails at all.

 

we got a bunch of charges for repairs from the last year, but our heat was also broken for a week or so, so he just evened it out

 

Just tell him the next call he receives won't be from you.

 

how much money are you not getting back?
