Late charge

Mon, 05 Jul 2010 19:18:07 +0000

My landlord is trying to fine me a $100 late charge becuase our rent is due on the 1st of each month, we deposit our rent check to her account on July 1st, she claims becuase it was not availaibel to her before the close of the business day she is fining us a late charge. We have our deposit ticket that shows it was deposited at 4:01 pm on the 1st. She claims that she can still charge us a late fee becuase the bank did not release the money in her account by the end of the business day.

Landlord will not return deposit/phone calls

Biting Dog

Graham — Tue, 29 Jun 2010 22:57:51 +0000

I have a renter who moved in our duplex (I live in one side and she is in the other side) in Oct. She said she had one dog (which pets were ok with me at the time) that was old and never went outside except to go potty. When she moved in, there were suddenly 3 dogs. When one of the three dogs started to attack my 4 year old, I told her that she needed to get rid of that dog because of the liability for me (and for my daughters safety). She did, though there was lots of drama over it, for about 2 weeks (could’ve been longer) then the dog was back. She said that the dog was there because her ex-husband was out of town and couldn’t keep the dog, but just for that week. The dog never left again. Now, we had a problem with some plumbing, and my maintenance guy had come to fix it. She had the dog locked up while he was there, he left for a bit (not sure how long) but told her he would be back. When he came back, the dog bit him, and it was a fairly serious bite. I then told her that she had to get rid of the dog, and after much drama again, she finally did. Now she seems to think that her dog was in the "right" by doing this because the dog was protecting her from an "intruder" because the maintenance man didn’t knock when he came back (which I’m not sure weather he knocked or not) and she seems to think that she has some sort of "rights". Does she? Where can this go from here? Isn’t the dog a liability to me as the landlord? PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!

I have 1 dog

Tenants moved without paying

anonymous — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 06:39:06 +0000

I am a landlord of property in Reno NV and I I live out of state. My tenants have not paid rent for the month of June. They have ignored all attempts to contact them via phone and text messaging. I have been informed by one of the neighbors at the house that it appears that they may have moved during the night. I do not know where they have gone, so I can not send them, or have deliveried any sort of formal documentation stating my intention to evict or demanding payment.

So what can I do now? Since they appear to have left on their own, do I have to file an eviction notice and whom do I file with? Can I have the locks changed siince they are not there? Help

Problems since day 1!!! HELP!!!!

I moved into my apartment on Sept. 1. They were still construcing it while I was moving, even though it was promised to be done. My stove was broken, and after much questioning on my part, a new one was replace about 6 weeks after moving in. Repairs that were supposed to have been done before me moving in never happened. I requested rent receipts, and did not receive one until the 8th month of my lease. It took 4 months to put up banisters in the hallways. Snow removal would take 2-4 days, even after I fell and hurt myself. The landlords decided to redo their floors, and put a polyeutherane coat on the floors of their level (we live in a house with an added addition.) They left for two days without telling us, and I had headaches, nausea, and dizziness due to the chemicals. Now, our stairwell has been blocked for over a week. I have about a 9 inch space to try and squeeze through the opening to leave. This is a fire hazzard. I could go on and on and on. What is the best way to deal with the unfairness of the situation, as well as get my security deposit back? I know he is going to try and make things up on why I shouldn’t get it back. I have paid all rent on time, and my landlord has no respect for me as a person. PLEASE HELP!!! I have til sept 1.

Can I get my backrent without SS#

sparkle — Sun, 07 Feb 2010 17:36:22 +0000

I rented to a couple on disability and they got behind on the rent, I evicted them, sued and won the case. Now its up to me to get my backrent. I made the mistake on not getting SS#s, since they don’t work their is now paycheck to garnish. I don’t know if their gov’t checks can be garnish and if so can I do it with out their SS#s. I know I shot myself in the foot by not getting enough personal info. They owe less than $1000.
