I live in the State of New York and we are moving. We have a clause in our lease that says that security deposit is not to be used as the last months rent. Our landlord charged us $100 over the rent for security deposit to discourage this practice. I have been told by the […]

Two months ago, I saw my neighbors (who I didn’t know very well) move a matress out of their apartment. They were either moving out or getting rid of the bed. I haven’t seen the neighbors recently, so I believe they moved out. Shortly after this happened, my husband and I noticed that we were […]

I just rented a cute older 3 bed. Home in SC. It has a fenced in back yard, but there is no back door. The neighbors just told me that this is not a house because it doesn’t have a back door. It stands alone and looks like a house. I wish it did have […]

We have been living in our house that we rent for 4 years.  When I paid our rent, our landlord didn’t say anything.  Three days later, she calls me and said that her nephew is interested in buying the house we live in because he’s getting married in May and that he’s been interested for […]
