QUESTIONS

  • I have a roommate that lets her boyfriend come over everyday and stay over every night. We are only paying rent for 2 people, not 3. I have tried talking to her about it and how this is not what I signed on for. Is it legal for her boyfriend to be basically living with us for free?
  • Our building is pretty old and the plumbing here is always giving everyone problems. Usually the owner fixes it and that's that. Well this time, the toilet is plugged up and it's the 3rd time. It wasn't fixed right the first time or the second time. Because I have been having problems with it ever since. Including right after they supposedly fixed it the first time. So this time (3rd time) the landlord (not the owner) says I have to pay her husband to fix it. I have a 14 yo son n a 17 yo daughter as well as myself who is disabled n our room mate who islike 63 yo. Do I have to pay?
