QUESTIONS

  • My daughter is in Perryville prison. and needs to get a divorce packet. I don't have much money. What do I do for her?
  • landlord last month told all residents of the park that we are going to have to make rent payments online. they have set it up through a company called "PayLease" and are planning to make an addendum to current lease and all future tenants will also be required to pay online. a fee will be charged if tenants want to pay by check or cash. is there anything we can do?
  • I am renting a house and the lease states renters are responsible for "yard maintenance." A storm broke 3 large branches on a tree in the backyard, one of which is laying on the patio canopy. The landlord said "I am responsible for yard maintenance. They will pay for any damages." I believe a tree nearly destroyed by a storm is different than yard maintenance and the landlord should have the branches removed and make the determination as to whether the tree should also be removed. Is it legal for them to force the cost of this clean up and potential tree removal on me?
  • We are the owners of a property in Tucson, Arizona. We received a judgment of eviction on the current tenents. The constable served them the papers. My question is the tenents have not removed anything from the property. What can I do? I need to go and clean the property to try and rent it out again.
  • I rented a house from a realtor and was in the house for over a year and a half and gave her a month and a half notice when I would be moving out. I am a smoker and no where in my lease does it say anything about not smoking in the property, now she is saying it will come out of my deposit whatever it cost her to get rid of the smoke smell. Is this legal?
  • Goodmorning, my tenant asked to break lease four months early leaving in March. I have started looking for a new tenant thru realtor, he is supposed to leave march 31st but he says he may not have anywhere to go so he might stay what happens if we find new tenant but he has not mved out. Can he stay after he gave written notice he was leaving early
  • I have been renting a trailer on a property lot it has been falling apart its not leveled also I think it has asbestos, but I complained asked the landlord to fix things they refused so I offered they refuse to allow me to do it but I stay in because I can't afford any where else. Now its 2yrs later she wants me to move out because its not livable & it does have asbestos it has been admitted by the landlord but refuses to admit in writing to help me get into housing my question is How can I get help to inspect the unit for proof without having to pay I'm on disability so I'm not homeless?
  • Is there is legal timeframe that the landlord has to repair the ac unit in Az.
  • I live in San Diego now, but was receiving UI from Arizona. My benefits were cut because I am in a training program that pays a stipend. UI insists that the stipend is income, but no taxes were taken out. I need to file an appeal.
  • The main sewer line serving the home gets totally blocked 4 times in 7 months. Each time the owner's home warranty company unblocks it, usually within 12 hrs, until it happens again. Each time all toilets, showers and sinks are unusable. Can the own be required to correct the blockage to prevent this from occurring so frequently?
