Lil'MissThang
Anyone know about renting houses?
My landlord knocked on our door early early this morning and told my husband that either we get rid of our dog or we have to move out. And that we need to buy new blinds because ours look tacky. We had a lease for the 1st year but that was up last September. Now I guess it is just month to month. When we moved in she told us we could have a dog if they lived outside. We pay our rent on time everymonth (sometimes early), and I just don't see how a landlord can kick you out if you are paying rent. Can they really do that?
Additional Details
My dog is like my baby and I wouldn't get rid of her for a million dollars.

In California, you are on a month to month basis and you can be told to move with a 30 days notice. In regards to blinds, if she had blinds up and you replaced them with your own without her permission, then she can have you revert back to the old ones. If there were no blinds, she cannot do or say anything.

Here's what I suggest. Tell her that your dog is like family and if she would consider allowing you to keep the dog with an increase in security deposit and/or additional pet deposit. In regards to blinds, tell her that if she buys the blinds, you'll gladly replace them. Other than that you're not in a position to purchase new ones because she feels they are tacky. If the house had blinds before you moved in, then I suggest you put them back up.

Your other option is to move out. Let her know that you'll give your 30 days notice. Trust me, if you're truly good tenants, we property managers and landlords want to keep you!

Regards

YES, Landlords can kick you out for ANY REASON if your on a month to month rental. They do have to give you notice.
However, law's vary from state to state.
To your additions,, By all means, KEEP your "baby". By the time the landlord is done with the eviction process (court, ect...) You can find a different BETTER place. To bad your not in Washington State (I think) Or I'd rent you my house and you could keep your pet. Good luck.

I am a landlord. Unless it is in writing that you can have a pet, you must get rid of the pet. The blinds was a low blow, but, if your blinds are tacky, and making the property a nuicense, then she can ask you to replace them. But, if they came with the rental, then you are under no obligation. Read your lease, and feel free to email me with any further questions.
I just read your additions..
Your landlord is required by law to give you a 30 day notice. you are due back your deposit by law minus pet damages, carpet cleaning, and painting, and any damage done to said property caused by you.

Yes, he can if its not in your lease. And on a month to month he could also kick you out if he wanted to with just a month notice. Just as you could leave with a months notice. The lease is to protect both you and the landlord.

As for the pet thing yeah I think they can, if the pet is in the backyard all the time then it is having wear and tear on the back yard, something the landlord is going to have to fix when you move out. It could also be that the neighbors have complained about the pet. I'm not sure about the mini-blinds, but I guess is you want to keep living there, then I'd do what she asks. Mini blinds don't cost all that much. With you renting they can pretty much do what they want you are at their mercy, if she decided to sell the property tomorrow she could, she could ring your bell tomorrow and say "I'm selling this place you have a week to find something new." Sadly, it's the way it works.

well she is within her rights,
30 days notice, and if your dog tore up the place she can keep your deposit too.

If you want your dog , you gotta move, and if you don't move you can't keep your dog.

if you can't find a place maybe you can let a friend keep her til you find one, but either way your gonna have to pay.

yes they can just not for having kids

unfortunately, if you have no written pet agreement, yes


LD
Yep, without a lease (month-to-month) you have VERY little to go on.

Yes she can evict you for this. She said keep it out of the unit and you didn't. Sorry. Renting means you follow the guides of the owner-if you want your dog to tear up a house, buy one.

The landlord has to give you notice, usually 30 days or whatever your lease says. He can ask you to leave and not even have a reason when you are on a month to month tenancy. If your dog is supposed to be outside and he is in that is a violation of your agreement. = Grounds for eviction. Just because you pay early or on time does not allow you to break any rules. You are supposed to pay on time anyway, you don't get a medal for that. Yes a landlord can evict people that pay the rent. All he has to do is give proper notice.. I hope this helps. I own 40 rentals and I suggest you pick up a booklet from your Attorney Generals Office on Tenant rights and responsibilities. Good Luck.


Czech Chick
I don't know where you live so go online and find "tenant landlord law" for your city/state. You can also look in the yellow pages and find a tenant landlord attorney with a free consultation and call him/her asap. You don't want to lose your doggie because you don't know the law. Inform yourself and arm yourself with knowledge! Good luck and God bless!

It is different from state to state. You might want to google rent laws & your state

How Evictions Work: Rules for Landlords and Property Managers
An overview of the eviction process, including the termination notices required for different situations.

A landlord can't begin an eviction lawsuit without first legally terminating the tenancy. This means giving the tenant written notice, as specified in the state’s termination statute. If the tenant doesn't move (or reform -- for example, by paying the rent or finding a new home for the dog), you can then file a lawsuit to evict. (Technically, this is called an unlawful detainer, or UD, lawsuit.)

State laws set out very detailed requirements to end a tenancy. Different types of termination notices are required for different types of situations, and each state has its own procedures as to how termination notices and eviction papers must be written and delivered ("served").

Notice for Termination With Cause
Although terminology varies somewhat from state to state, there are basically three types of termination notices for tenancies that landlords terminate due to tenant misbehavior:

Pay Rent or Quit Notices are typically used when the tenant has not paid the rent. They give the tenant a few days (three to five in most states) to pay the rent or move out ("quit").
Cure or Quit Notices are typically given after a tenant violates a term or condition of the lease or rental agreement, such as a no-pets clause or the requirement to refrain from making excessive noise. Usually, the tenant has a set amount of time in which to correct, or "cure," the violation. A tenant who fails to do so must move or face the possibility of an eviction lawsuit.
Unconditional Quit Notices are the harshest of all. They order the tenant to vacate the premises with no chance to pay the rent or correct a lease or rental agreement violation. In most states, unconditional quit notices are allowed only when the tenant has:
repeatedly violated a significant lease or rental agreement clause
been late with the rent on more than one occasion
seriously damaged the premises, or
engaged in serious illegal activity, such as drug dealing on the premises.
