No, it has nothing to do, with what was said over the phone. If you did not tell the landlord, what he wanted to know, over the phone, and he discovered a dishonest answer, when going over the application, then he would not have to rent an apartment to you. The only way, it could be classified as a discrimination case, if he said I do not want to rent to you, because of your race, then you could seek a discrimation case..

it really depends on your lease, mine has a job transfer clasue, yours might too.  or keep your fingers crossed your landlords are nice people.

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.

It depends on a variety of circumstances, hopefully which are outlined in your lease.  For example, most landlords will give you at least 24 hour warning before showing your apartment or having somebody come to make repairs.  Whether you are home or not is not an issue.  If it is at a reasonable time and advance notice is given, they generally do have the right.

The tenant is the leaseholder,  usually. I assume you mean the landlord? Your syntax suggests you are in the UK. In any event, the landlord is going to have to bring a court action for eviction. It this is a council property, there are new laws that facilitate the eviction of antisocial tenants. How about an ASBO though: violations can be pursued through comtempt action; this can be very effective with neighbours from hell.\n\nYour lease no doubt gives you the right of "quiet enjoyment" whether in the UK or the USA. You can pursue your landlord on that point.

You need to understand that not all kinds of discrimination are illegal.  In the real world, people get turned down for things all the time (which is a form of discrimination) based on lack of creditworhiness, ownership of collateral, good references, or any one of a thousand other legal reasons.  Illegal discrimination is discrimination based on race, religion, national origin, sex, age, handicap, etc. I would not think that requiring a deposit from you under these circumstances would constitute discrimination unless you suspect that the real reason for the requirement is your race, religion, national origin or any other suspect classification.  Many businesses, including landlords, offer incentives as part of a sales pitch, but there's almost always some fine print that says you have to qualify to get the incentive.  In your case, if your landlord's sales pitch was subject to his receipt of your rental or credit history (a very routine requirement), he had every right to change the offered terms if you don't meet the requirements.  Read your rental application very carefully (look at the fine print on the back) and see if there isn't some language that allows them to modify their requirements depending on your credit, rent history, references, etc.  On the other hand, if you have solid evidence that they are changing the rules because of your race, religion, etc., you may have a case.

There is a difference between a lease and a month to month rental agreement.  If you have a month to month agreement and want a lease, the landlord probably does not have to provide one merely because a landlord is not required to lease property at all.  He/she may restrict all rentals to non-lease contracts.\n\nHowever, if he is trying to get you to move out because you are on public assistance, you may have a foundation for a discrimination action.  Fed/State law doesn't allow for discrimination, but it restricts itself to issues such as race, gender, etc.\n\nLocal and county ordinances can provide additional protections above and beyond federal and state law.  Federal/state law doesn't address source of income as a basis for discrimination.  For instance, in the state of Connecticut, a landlord CANNOT use the source of income as a factor in renting or giving a lease.  In other states, he or she may.\n\nI suggest you contact HUD or a representative from your public assistance agency who can lead you to the information you need for your specific situation.  Don't threaten the landlord yet.  That will only make matters worse, but please do some research.  You may have a case.  As I said, it truly depends on several factors the most important being the laws where you are renting.

Wow!\nGood Question. I live in Texas too so I would suggest that you contact your local Justice of the Peace or Constable and ask them. The J.P. issues the eviction notice and the constable enforces it.\n\n\nWhy are you responsible for this person? I would think since your name is on the lease and you moved--that's the end of it. I would wager that the landlord will have to evict the tenant....but that is just a guess. Contact the J.P or Constable for a definitive answer

I WORK AT AN APARTMENT COMPLEX IN DELAWARE. IF SOMEONE IS ON A LEASE AND ARE RENTING THE LAW IN DE IS SIXTY (60) DAYS NOTICE. BUT IF HE IS JUST LIVING WITH YOU AND IS NOT ON THE LEASE, I DON'T THINK YOU HAVE TO GIVE HIM NOTICE. YOU CAN TELL HIM CAUSE OF HIS ACTION YOU DONT FEEL COMFORTABLE LIVING WITH HIM ANYMORE. YOU MIGHT WANT TO CHECK AND SEE IF YOUR STATE HAS A LANDLORD TENANT CODE BOOK AND CHECK AND SEE WHAT IT SAYS.

It depends on Indiana state law.\n\nIn Texas, a landlord can give notice for any reason other than discrimination based on a protected class. \n\nBy the way, being disabled makes them part of a protected class.  If there is any way to prove that they are being discriminated against based on their disabilities, you could go to court over it federally.\n\nIf I were you I would check out the local tenant's council if there is one or contact the Indiana version of TREC (Texas Real Estate Commission).  The governmental entities presiding over that type of law are generally helpful pointing you to the relevant laws for your situation.

Please try to hear what I am saying. Your problem is not in writing the notice but screening the people out that you do not want. I have 10+ rentals and you cannot believe the things that people will say and to convince you to rent, and then you run background check and Mr. Hyde reveals himself! A simple notice with your address, phone number, and cost will suffice and be choosy! Wait for the right person, and whatever they tell you, assume it is not true until you can prove it to be otherwise. You haven't experienced grief until you try to evict someone who won't pay, leaves their dog locked inside for a week (imagine the carpet, walls, etc.) and won't remove the trash. It's a major financial, emotional, and health hazard. Have the prospective tenant pay the application fee and apply it toward their rent and have it professionally screened for credit, job history, rental history, criminal history and good luck.

Yes it's legal, especially if you haven't responded to your landlords attempts to contact you.  You could try and countersue for pain and suffering caused by humiliation but you'd almost certainly lose.
