Not a good idea, Karen. He is setting it up so he won't be paying anything after you sign it.\n\nSuch a letter - notarized or not - would probably not stand up in court, anyway. If you sign that letter and it can be shown he had ill intentions in the first place, the letter will probably be thrown out.\n\nAnd why would you want that anyway? If he becomes a bum and takes advantage of you like that, why would you want a boy like that (I say boy because a MAN always makes sure he takes care of business). For him to even suggest that means he is planning to sponge off of you if he can.

Contact a local law firm and ask them to write a letter on your behalf to your former partner. I have found that the implied threat of legal action is generally low cost and sufficient to get action.\n\nBest of success.

The landlord can ask a tenant to pay for whatever they want.  It's up to YOU if you want to or not.  If you don't, I would suggest looking else where, where it's not included in the lease.

Start creating some paper.  Send her a letter informing her that you need access to show the premises.  When she refuses, send her another letter stating that you have requested access to show the premises, as provided in the lease, and that she has refused.  Keep doing this.  After the lease has ended and she has moved out, if you aren't able to re-rent right away then withhold a month's rent from her deposit.  If/when she tries to sue you for it you can show the judge the copies of the letters proving that she was in violation of the lease and prevented you from re-renting the property.

be honest and forward, but not rude. you don't want to seem like you're coming down on her because she most likely wasn't doing it to annoy you. it's your space too, though, and you have every right to feel comfortable in it. if it's just his presence that bothers you, ask if they could find another spot to hang out some of the time (his house). if it's the rent/utilities, just gently explain that you don't think it's fair for you to be paying more than your share. if being honest makes her mad for more than an hour or so, i would seriously contemplate living with a different roommate.

Send an email or leave a voice message telling him you won't be paying for his apartment or food any more.  I bet you will hear from him then.

Get another roommate as fast as you can and sue the deadbeat in small claims.  The landlord will hold you responsible for the entirety of the lease.  The landlord is not required to go after the other guy for half, he can go after you for all of it.  I am sorry this happened to you.  I hope you can get another person to pick up half of the rent.  \n\nAlso, do talk to the landlord, see if offering to spiff the place up, and run ads at your expense, if you find a new tenant willing to sign a new lease with them, will they let you out of the lease.  \n\ngood luck!

I would definitely talk to her about it.  If that didn't help, talk to your roommate.  This apartment belongs to you and your roommate, not his GF.  If his GF pays part of the rent, then I guess I'd just try to wake up a little earlier.

go back with lease in hand and tell them you want a refund of all money since they decided to change your apartment you decided to change yours to and find another place i really wouldn't want to live they might decide to raise your your rent after you move in sounds shady to me

you need to contact your local 211 information and referral line and ask them how to contact the agency in your area for fair housing. i used to work for such a place and they investigate situations like that, when landlords screw you over. they will tell you who to network with to get your life back together and get some forced compensation if possible, from your landlord.

Just have a threesome. You all can move in together and split the rent.

Housing Benefit is means tested and as you say you are cohabiting your income will be taken into account in full for the purposes of calculating any Housing Benefit you may be entitled to.  As you say you cannot afford to pay the rent yourself, you may still be entitled to some Housing Benefit so it is probably a good idea for your partner to claim anyway.  You may also wish to check whether your partner is entitled to Contractual Sick Pay from his employer, or failing that, he is likely to be entitled to Statutory Sick Pay.  Other sickness/disability benefits may be available depending on your partners health.  Best of luck.

Check the lease papers on your apartment.\nThere should be a clause there specifically addressing the practice of 'subletting', which your room mate is technically doing. \nThere are specific laws that address this situation. Call your local housing office.

She can say it, but you can contest the decision if you can prove special circumstances in regards to who is named on the lease.  If it is in your name, she is wrong.  If it is in both your names, you need to show just cause for remaining as the primary resident/leasee.  If there are children involved that is one reason.  If utilities are in your name, that is another reason.  If you have no way of moving your belongings out I believe it must be paid for by the department who is telling you to move.  You need to find a legal aid society that can assist you at low or no cost.  If you were the victim of a violent crime, then they should assist you with a restraining order against him.  This is most likely why you are being asked to move...the restraining order is in the works & the P.O. wants to get you out before it is issued.  I don't know, it sounds biased, but I don't know all the facts.  Hope this gives you some ideas.

well, in my state rent to oun does not work vary well. I'm kind of in the same place. Me and my best friend bought a house 4 years ago becouse rent was getting to hight. Well now we want to sell but can't right now becouse of a lean from her icecream store. So we are kind of married but don't want to be. So you might want to get married first.

First of all, the laws on the eviction process and landlord/tenant laws vary by state.  Second, the law can even be different if this is a commercial property vs. a residental property.  Third, it is unclear what you mean by "eviction letter".  Is it a notice to pay rent or quit due to past due rent?  Or perhaps just a notice for you to move out because they want to get another tenant?\n\nIf the notice was truly sent in 2004, the law of your state MIGHT deem the notice to have expired.  Or the notice might be invalid if the landlord accepted rent from you after the date of the notice.  Or maybe the landlord pulled up and old form from another matter, forgot to change the date and served it recently.\n\nRegardless of what the facts are, you need to see a local who is well versed in the landlord/tenant laws of your state.

Wow, what a strange situation.\nIn general, landlords MAY NOT engage in "self-help" (i.e. throwing your stuff out the door) when a residential tenant fails to pay rent.  Assuming that your lady actually has rights to sub-lease the property to you, her only action would be to file an eviction / unlawful detainer action, with notice to you to cure the rent deficiency. Failure to do so gives you a cause of action  against her, especially if you incurred any damage to your property, etc.\nBut this situation is complicated by the fact that (a) you're a roommate and not just a tenant, (b) she is clearly nuts, and (c) she may or may not have the ability to lease / sublease the place to you anyway.  \nSince it doesn't sound like you have a written lease, but rather a week-to-week lease, it's certainly best if you get out of there ASAP.  (I know that's kind of a bummer, since you probably are getting a good deal.) \nThese landlord / tenant disputes are one of the areas of expertise of Legal Aid -- they can usually help you if you cannot afford an attorney.  Good luck.
