That is not quite what the law says.\n\nIn actual fact it is that no more than three unrelated people are allowed to occupy one dwelling unit, regardless of the number of bedrooms, unless the landlord has a “Rooming House License.” \n\nSo people can live together, but only if the landlord has the correct kind of renting license.  Or, if the people are joint owners of the house and are not paying rent, they can also live together.

First, I'm from Pa. S I dont know the intracacies of Cal law.  But from what I've read and know from experience, I would definitely NOT rent to them.  Let me see!  you're looking for an apt, a $1000 one at that, and you dont have the $$ for the deposit?  Believe me, they won't have the $$ for anything else either.  It seems to me they cant afford tit in the first place.  The fact that you took a partial deposit has no bearing on whether to accept them or not.  BTW, did they fill out a rental ap?  I'll bet any references they gave if any are sketchy at best.  CALL to verify employment or where ever the $$ is coming from. If they cant pass the application phase, they cant afford it.  DO NOT RENT TO THEM UNTIL YOU ARE SURE THEY CAN PAY THE RENT.Better yet, tell them that until you receive the full deposit, you HAVE to keep showing the apt.  If they dont move on that, then consider it a excellent sign that they never had the $$ to begin with.\nI just ask me cousin who lives in LA about this.  She's never heard of such a law and they have rented apts in the past.  Tell them to hit the bricks.

Your Landlord is liable.  He needs to provide these services for you.  Below is the statue from the TN Real Esate Comission.  Call a lawyer and sue this guy.  Be sure to keep really good records to prove your case in court.\n   \n \n 66-28-304. Maintenance by landlord.\n\n  \n \n \n \n \n   \n \n (a)  The landlord shall:  \n  \n \n \n   \n \n (1) Comply with requirements of applicable building and housing codes materially affecting health and safety;  \n  \n \n \n   \n \n (2) Make all repairs and do whatever is necessary to put and keep the premises in a fit and habitable condition;  \n  \n \n \n   \n \n (3) Keep all common areas of the premises in a clean and safe condition; and  \n  \n \n \n   \n \n (4) In multi-unit complexes of four (4) or more units, provide and maintain appropriate receptacles and conveniences for the removal of ashes, garbage, rubbish and other waste from common points of collection subject to § 66-28-401(3).  \n  \n \n \n   \n \n (b)  If the duty imposed by subdivision (a)(1) is greater than any duty imposed by any other paragraph of subsection (a), the landlord's duty shall be determined by reference to subdivision (a)(1).  \n  \n \n \n   \n \n (c)  The landlord and tenant may agree in writing that the tenant perform specified repairs, maintenance tasks, alterations, and remodeling, but only if the transaction is entered into in good faith and not for the purpose of evading the obligations of the landlord.  \n  \n \n \n   \n \n (d)  The landlord may not treat performance of the separate agreement described in subsection (c) as a condition to any obligation or performance of any rental agreement.  \n\n  \n \n \n \n \n   \n \n [Acts 1975, ch. 245, § 2.104; T.C.A., § 64-2824.]

I study landlord tenant law's each state as it's own law's on eviction's the only state's where tenant's do not have any law's for a tenant is Arkansas and Alabama so what you have to do is call your local court house in the small claim's dept. They will give you the rule's in which your state's law's goes by if you dont follow these state law you will be in volation and could cost you alot of money and give them extended time to stay in your rental home. Good Luck and Good Day.

Call your city or town office and ask for the Code Enforcement Department and speak with them they will help you out..any building that has tenants has to pass through this department to beable to rent and if the building is not up to code then it will be this department that will determine if it's safe to live there.

Landlord-tenant law governs the rental of commercial and residential property. It is composed primarily of state statutory and common law. A number of states have based their statutory law on either the Uniform Residential Landlord And Tenant Act (URLTA) (http://www.law.cornell.edu/uniform/vol7.html#lndtn) or the Model Residential Landlord-Tenant Code. Federal statutory law may be a factor in times of national/regional emergencies and in preventing forms of discrimination. \n\nThe basis of the legal relationship between a landlord and tenant is grounded in both contract and property law. The tenant has a property interest in the land (historically a non-freehold estate) for a given period of time. See State Property Statues (http://www.law.cornell.edu/topics/state_statutes3.html#property). The length of the tenancy may be for a given period of time, for an indefinite period of time, (e.g., renewable/cancelable on a month to month basis), terminable at any time by either party (at will), or at sufferance if the agreement has been terminated and the tenant refuses to leave (holds over). See Restatement of The Law 2d Property: Landlord and Tenant § § 1.4-1.8 (http://www.ali.org/ali/proplt.htm). If the tenancy is tenancy for years or periodic the tenant has the right to possess the land, to restrict others (including the landlord) from entering upon it, and to sublease or assign the property. The landlord-tenant agreement may eliminate or limit these rights. The landlord-tenant agreement is normally embodied in a lease. The lease, though not historically or strictly a contract, may be subject to concepts embodied in contract law. See Contracts; § 1.103 of the URLTA (http://www.law.upenn.edu/bll/ulc/fnact99/1970s/urlta72.pdf). \n\nThe landlord-tenant relationship is founded on duties proscribed by either statutory law , the common law, or the individual lease. What provisions may be contained in a lease is normally regulated by statutory law. See § 1.403 of the URLTA (http://www.law.upenn.edu/bll/ulc/fnact99/1970s/urlta72.htm). Basic to all leases is the implied covenant of quiet enjoyment. This covenant ensure the tenant that his possession will not be disturbed by someone with a superior legal title to the land including the landlord. See Restatement 2d § 4.1-4.3 (http://www.ali.org/ali/proplt.htm). A breach of the covenant of quiet enjoyment may be actual or constructive. A constructive eviction occurs when the landlord causes the premises to become uninhabitable. \n\nHousing codes were established to ensure that residential rental units were habitable at the time of rental and during the tenancy. Depending on the state, housing code violations may lead to administrative action or to the tenant being allowed to withhold rent. The habitability of a residential rental unit is also ensured by warranties of habitability which are prescribed by common and/or statutory law. See § 2.104 of the URLTA (http://www.law.upenn.edu/bll/ulc/fnact99/1970s/urlta72.htm). A breach of the warranty of habitability or a covenant within the lease may constitute constructive eviction, allow the tenant to withhold rent, repair the problem and deduct the cost from the rent, or recover damages. See URLTA § § 4.101 & 4.104 & 4.105 (http://www.law.upenn.edu/bll/ulc/fnact99/1970s/urlta72.htm). \n\nUnless the lease states otherwise there is an assumption that the tenant has a duty to pay rent. State statutes may provide for a reasonable rental value to be paid absent a rental price provision. See URLTA § 1.401(b) (http://www.law.upenn.edu/bll/ulc/fnact99/1970s/urlta72.htm). In commercial leases rent is commonly calculated in part or whole as a percentage of the tenants sales. Rent acceleration clauses that cause all the rent to become due if the tenant breaches a provision of the lease are common in both residential and commercial leases. Summary eviction statutes commonly allow a landlord to quickly evict a tenant who breaches statutorily specified

There are no laws.  Rental property is market driven, the only law is the law of supply and demand.  They can charge whatever the market will bear, and you can choose to rent it or not.

Go to the blue pages of your phone book and look up the number for your city or township government. Call the number and ask for assistance with your rental regarding a safety violation. Once it's reported, you will probably find a legal way to put your rent in an escrow account until the work is done. Especially effective if the WHOLE BUILDING does the same thing!\nBut you need to get the gov't on your side and do everything by the book or you could get a black mark on your references.\n\nCity government is there to help you.

Check with your local Housing Authority.  Laws vary from state to state and even city to city.  Most places do not allow a landlord to enter a residence at will, but this is something you need to verify in your own locality.

there should be a Landlord and Tenant Board in your area that can give you advise and hopefully help arbitrate an agreement.

I do not know the laws in PA, but here in FL, if you have joint custody, you have to tell the ex where you will be and IF the ex decided he/she does not want you to take the child he/she can take you to court. At that point you can tell the judge why you want to move. As long as it is a valid reason, then he/she SHOULD grant permission. The most valid reason is work related. As for child support, you should NEVER "give it up" as it is not YOURS to give up. That money is for your 15.5 year old. Hope this helps.
