  • I have tenents that live in a 2 beedroom apt thats 900 sq. Feet. They have 3 minor kids living with them now and want their 4th to move in. Is it legal for that many people in a small place?
  • We're renting a home and have 9 months left in our 12 month lease. We just found out the property foreclosed and the home sold. We've been offered money to leave in 30 days. We are protected under the Protecting Tenants in Foreclosure Act, and can stay for the duration of our lease. We are willing to leave in 60-90 days, to give us time to find another rental. If the PTFA expires on 12/31/14 are we still protected on 1/1/15? Can they give us more time but then come back on Jan. 1st and evict us? Are we protected past the expiration of the act because we signed our lease before the foreclosure?
  • How do I request a name change for my minor son?
  • What rights to tenancy do I have after relatives death? I have inhabited the apartment for a few weeks and received a 5 day notice, and nothing more. Another relative informed me that the Apartment Managers contacted them saying a court date was set for tomorrow, yet there has been no notice left at the apartment.
  • paid application fee (30.00), and was approved during special of 99.00 per month advertisement. Contacted mgmt, then was told there was nothing available, requested return of 30.00 app fee (denied)told non-refundable. How can they take a app or a fee if nothing is available. When lot came available, because of timing had no choice but to take, but we were told rent was now 295.00 instead of 99.00 even after being approved at special offering but nothing available. Do I have any recourse, and now 7 months later 99.00 special is available. Any Help would be great. thanks for the help
