call a laywer and ask for sure but i'd think so... i mean, if you pick up and leave they can't legally proove that you weren't spoused to.

Talk to a lawyer.  If you feel you can't afford one, go to the Legal Aid Society.  Some areas also have free or very cheap legal help specific to housing questions.  The complaints you have may be validly considered breach of contract on the part of the landlord, and let you out of the lease.

It all depends on the terms of the lease.  It's a contract that you signed, and you should be familiar with the requirements of that contract.  \n\nIf you are to be evicted, then there is probably an appeal process you can go through under the laws of your state.  I can't say for certain either way, but you can check findlaw.com and see if there are any statutes that apply in your area.  Generally your landlord must provide you some time to find alternate housing and some options to make good on your contract if you are in default.

First check your lease - if there's any mention of that you can be evicted for ANY infraction, then you've got a hard road ahead of you. If there's no mention of it, speak to your landlord and let him/her know that it was a mistake and that you have paperwork to prove it.\n\nGood luck!

First read your lease carefully to see if there is anything about what happens if you break your lease.  \n\nIf there is nothing about breaking your lease then you should send a certified letter to the landlord.  In the letter you should tell them that their renovations are interfering with your right to quiet enjoyment of the apartment.  Then say that, within the next 5 days they must stop renovations on the units next to yours until your lease has ended.  If they don't stop renovations on those units within 5 days then they will have "constructively evicted" you and you will have no choice but to declare the lease terminated.

No that is why they made you sign a lease so that you would pay what you were owed.\n\nYou should have tried to sublet it to someone who would pay the rent (or most of it) so that the landlord did not lose money and sue you for it.

Do you have a lease?  If so your unit number should appear on that lease, which is the unit you are assigned to.  If you are being forced to move your landlord must have you sign a new lease for the new unit.  If your lease is not expired and you are being forced out, take your landlord to court.  However if you are being forced to change units due to damages you have caused, a judge is likely to rule for the landlord.

If your name was on the lease, and the lease was terminated by eviction, then you were evicted.  It will reflect negatively in your credit report and/or background check.  It won't make it impossible for you to find an apartment, but certainly more difficult.  The more strikes you have against you, the fewer potential landlords will want to take a chance on you; you'd be considered a bad risk.  And even the potential landlords that will give you a chance will probably want a larger security deposit from you and possibly a co-signer.\n\nNow, this is just my understanding based upon my experiences watching personal friends deal with evictions and trying to rent with bad credit.  If you want to be doubly sure, you should talk to a lawyer and/or a real estate agent.

Every lease is different.  It amazes me how many people do not read the lease or listen when the manager/landlord goes over it when you sign it.\n\nYou should have a copy of the commencement checklist from when you moved in. In your lease it should tell you what you are and are not charged for when you vacate.\n\nWhy not call the manager/landlord and ask him/her what is expected on move out? They will explain to you what is normal wear and tear and what is not. Ask if they provide a move out checklist for you to follow.

I don't think you have much recourse on this.  Check your lease.

You'll have to go by whatever you agreed to in your lease.  Your only other option is to try to talk to the landlord to see if they are willing to make any concessions.  Good luck.

You will need to contact the apartment Manager and ask to cosign the lease. But keep in mind that if your friend is unable to pay the rent you will then be responsible for it.

Yes, you must abide by the original terms of the lease. It says that rent is due on the 1st day of the month.  You are still "in" your lease, even though you don't live there any longer.  If your rent is not paid on time, they can and will assess late charges in accordance with their rights as set forth in the original lease agreement.\n   If they relet your apartment, all monthly rent will cease on your part and if you've already paid through the end of any given month, you are entitled to a full refund on a prorated basis from the first day of the new tenant's occupancy.\n   If you find that someone is living in your old apartment and they are still collecting rent from you, hire an attorney and contact the nearest Tenant's Council in your area.  You will probably be entitled to compensatory damages ($$$).

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.

It is not very common for apartment complexes to report to the bureaus although not impossible. More than likely it will not come as the apartment complex itself but rather a possibility they will send it to collections (if it comes). 6 months is still pretty fresh. Keep your eye out for unknown collection activity in the future. I hope you have documentation to support your claim.

You will be liable for the remaining months on the lease if and only if the landlord fails to re rent the apt.....that being said, the landlord has a duty to mitigate his losses, so he must actively pursue new renters.....The only way you would not be liable is if you can PROVE he made no attempt to re rent.\n\nBest case scenario for you is if he re rents right away and you are only responsible for the time the apt sat vacant.\n\nOf course, why would you sign a lease prior to viewing an apt?  Seems kind of strange.

You don't just get kicked out, they have to take you to court and go through the process first.\n\nIf you show the landlord all the paperwork for the replacement money order they might be understanding and agree to wait.
