• What are my renter's right?
  As a renter you have many rights, in fact contrary to common belief, renters typically have more rights than landlords. You have the right to a safe, and worry-free environment. The Rental Protection Agency helps protect renters from problems dealing within the rental industry. The RPA is the national agency responsible for investigating all types of landlord disputes, regardless of their severity. Once you file a complaint through our landlord dispute online resolution center, an investigating agent will be assigned to your case and will work with both parties to mediate a fair resolution. Depending on the severity of your Apartment Complaint / or Landlord Complaint, the RPA may work with local authorities to enforce your renting rights. Most cases are resolved without force.
• What are my legal options to resolve rent problems?
  Tenants have only a couple of options to resolve problems while renting. The obvious solution is to work it out with apartment manager/ landlord yourself, however, if you're here most likely you've tried to deal with the landlord problem yourself and haven't been able to reach an agreement. Living with the an unresolved renting problem should never be an option, so that leaves you a couple of choices. You can hire an attorney and take the landlord to court. (should only be considered as a last resort) Or file a landlord complaint with the Rental Protection Agency. Filing a complaint with the RPA should be your first defense to protect your rights. Not only does the RPA not charge for mediation, but a trained agent and rental mediator will deal with the problem for you. Unlike court cases that require landlords/ renters to prove their innocence, RPA Mediation focuses on finding a fair resolution to landlord complaints.
