Going crazy!
By Help please?
In August I signed a 11 month lease for a 4br/4ba condo. Everything has been going well, until a few weeks ago. All of a sudden my three female roomates have begun to give me glares/silent treatment and one of them even "framed" me by telling another roomate that I drank all of her orange juice (which I am highly allergic to by the way!). Soon it was "your cat this" and "your dog that" even though all three other girls have both cats and dogs. Etc. I have taken my cat out of the picture permanently to live with a family member.. I did pay a pet deposit of 200$ and a security deposit of 400$. I feel pushed, for lack of better words, to move out. My landlord will allow me to break lease, keeping my deposits.. there is a catch to this though. One of my roomates is the landlords daughter. Every time she cries to daddy something productive happens. However, if I even ask the landlord for advice on solving these issues its a slap on the wrist, usually some outrageous thing about why its my fault and how I am being "silly" and not trying hard enough…
I have attempted to bring peace to the condo, by getting rid of the cat, I compromised one animal to my two. By arranging meetings to discuss issues and oh I dont know, act like adults should and solve the issues accordingly. A chore chart was created, and just days after I informed said roomates that I could not participate in "secret santa" due to financial hardship, they demand me put twenty dollars in a bucket towards cost of supplies. I have absolutely no problem with this demand, however, considering that we are students, and no one will be living in the condo after next week, plus their pre-knowledge of the fact that our utilities bills have taken all of my money to even think about using money towards Christmas dinner has very much offended me. I dont know if it is pure ignorance or just plain hatred. But this sort of thing has been taking place since early November and I feel as though I have no choice but to move (which I cant afford without my deposits) or to stay in a hostile environment with three very immature, passive-aggressive, catty females. However, I want to know my rights as a tennant..
Can the landlords daughter have keys to our rooms? She has a key to one girls room without her knowledge, and I worry that she may go vandalize my property as I have seen her "break in" to one of the other girls rooms before using a credit card and a knife..
If she does not have the legal rights to break into my room, what do I do or say to ensure that my property stays safe from harm?
Do I have any rights of getting my deposits back? Even with the landlords daughter being one of the tennants pushing me out of the condo?
I know that it would ultimately be my decision to leave meaning I would be in breach of contract, but to counter, it is because the other tennants are making my life hell. I do not want to make their lives hell, as that would not fix anything and wastes everyones time, bringing me down to their level. plus daddy’s little princess might sue me for emotional damage or something just as fitting of her demanor.
