month to month agreement andrew conn IL new renter

My lease was expiring and my content was moving out at end of lease. I went to property managemnet and told them the circumstances and asked to continue a month to month agreement for a couple of months at the same rental figure. They agreed until just a few days before the end of lease and are now backing out asking for extra rentqal money for the month to month. With 2 days left in the month, I don’t know how to get this corrected in time. This is really messing me up since I made no plans to move and place my furniture. I cant pay the extra and dont like being booted with no notice. I cant just stop working to move and they have given me 2-4 days notice. Why wouldn’t their verbal agreement be honored? Isn’t there anything that could be done to rectify this problem?

Roommate Problem Alan IL Renter

My daughter signed a lease with a friend. Due to Friends activities the golden roommate turned into a major roommate problem.  My daughter has moved out and we are working with realtor/landlord to sublet.

Problem:
Friend has someone living in appartemnet now.
My daughters personal affects/room have been moved around and used.
We notified realtor but even though it is against lease to have anyone else living there they are not willing to do anything.
House is a mess so tyring to sublet is impossible.

Should I file complaint against landlord? admin

At what point should I file a complaint against landlord? I haven’t really had many problems with this rental property until now… My hot water heater stopped working 3 days ago so I called my landlord to ask him to fix the water heater. He said he would get right on it, but I haven’t seen or heard from him since. I’m so sick of taking cold showers, its unbearable! Should I file a complaint or should I just wait it out? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks!
