Crooked landlords.............

      Let me start of by saying hello to everyone. Sorry that I have not been able to blog on a daily basis, but I have been going through some things and just had no time..
       As per last week my daughter and grandaughter were in Florida.. They are now home as of Friday .
 Today my daughter had to go to court. Her landlord had claimed that she had not paid rent. This landlord which I will not name , had try to take advantage of my daughter. He had initially stated that she can move in November with one month free rent. He was giving her the keys early because he was flying to California for a personal matter. AT least this is the reason he had stated. My daughter has since, had problems with him. The first sign was when he was in California , their was a bad leak through the light fixture on the ceiling. It was short circuiting the whole apartment. Next the door was not shutting properly. It will get the key stuck and she was stuck outside for hours. There were field mouse. He supply no water and heat or trash removal. None of this we knew because he never wanted to address the lease. He never gave her a lease. There was no way of knowing. He would just show up whenever he wanted to and to make matters worst, he had change his cell number so everytime she needed him for damages that were in the house, she could not get a hold of him.
         The last draw was this week when she had got home her roomate notify her that there was a electrical fire. It has started within the wall were the stove was, lucky they had stop the fire in time and not much damage was done . The fire department had to knock down the wall to see if it was traveling up the wall. The amount of water within the walls from the leaks was incredible...
      Today in court, he stated that my dauhter had owed him rent, which she had admitted to the judge that she did. He stated that he try to work things out with her but she would not accomodate. My daughter had stated that she try numerous times to settle things with him but everytime their was something wrong with the apartment she had to pay an outside contractor to fix the job. Needless to say the judge granted him zero dollars in repayment. No lease , no pay or quit notice that has to be certify. No written agreement as to how much the rent was and ,  a nasty attitude will never win in court.   Sometimes the law those prevail for the victims. Now we are on the look for a new apartment but happy that she is out of that one with no fees.... Watch out for nasty landlords.....
