audiofire07 | Is my landlord screwing my fellow roomates and me? |
Two of my friends and I are getting ready to move into a house we are renting on sept 1st. However the current renters are not moving out of this house until sept 1st. I feel like we are getting screwed because I thought that by law the landlord had to go in and clean up/paint the rooms in the house by law before new renters could move in, but this will not be able to be done if we are moving in the same day that they are moving out. Plus one of my roomates needs to be out of his place by the 1st and into our new place by then. We also have a storage unit which will charge us for a whole months rent if we have our furniture in there for a day past august 31st. What is going on!?!?! Please help! Thanks! |

You're the one who didn't give the landlord any time to clean the place, and now you're complaining about it?
To me, you have two choices:
1) Expect the landlord to clean the place, and move in on Sept. 5th or whenever the cleaning/painting you "expect" is done, or
2) Move in on Sept 1st like you stated you must do, and work with the landlord to coordinate any needed re-painting or repair work. Make sure you document the state of the apt. before you move anything in with photos or a walk-through.
The only logical choice is the second one. Try cooperating and working together vs. feeling "screwed." |

That's only the case in apartment complexes. They don't have to paint, but they should have the carpets cleaned. Just move in and deep clean it yourselves. Rent a carpet shampooer (they're cheap to rent and you can normally get them at a grocery store). That sucks about your storage rent, but there's nothing you can do to get out of that...possibly explain your situation to management. They might prorate your rent for only 1 day. The worst they can say is no, right? Let your friend crash on your couch for a night. Move his stuff into the storage unit for 1 day. Or ask the landlord and current residents if he could put his stuff on the garage (if they have one). The worst they can say is no. |

all you have to do is call that new landlord and like causualy say "how much time on the 1st did you need to clean and paint before i move in" see what he says then at least he knows you expect it |

place should be clean but no law as toward forcing the landlord to paint the place, when you move in take lot's of pictures to show the condition of the unit when you moved in, and be prepared to clean yourself the place
sounds like you may have a troubled landlord |

I think what "stetoe", the guy above, said is right. Get in contact with your housing authority. You need a legal answer to this question from experts. But DO NOT officially move in until you do what the others have suggested. Do a walk through with the landlord to see damage the other tenants might have caused or is pre-existing. Get him/her to sign something recognizing the state of the apartment at move-in time. You don't want to get stuck with the blame for damage that was already there. Be careful- the whole situation sounds a little rushed. |

It depends on the laws of your state, but most states do require the landlord to clean the place before it can be rented. Many landlords are happy to do this so they can prove the damage done to the place by current renters. |

just the way things happen sometimes. before you move in. take your digital camera and snap pics of everything. the floor, carpet, walls, rooms etc. this way if he bit*ches that YOU screwed things up, you can have proof that it wasnt you but the previous tenants. that or bring his azz over and walk around the place with him. he should at least do that so he can see what, if any, damages the previous tenants did. if your lease states the place is to be cleaned or whatever than have him take it off your first months rent since he'll be unable ti comply with that agreement. |

It really depends on the lease agreement between you and the landlord. I cannot say that there are no law because every local city may have something different. However, in general, the government is not involved in something like that. There are however some laws (landlord/tenant act) that you may want to look up.
I suppose this is the first time you guys are getting into a lease. You need to read the fine prints and thing through the issues before agreeing to the contract so you know what is the mutual obligation between you and the property owner. |

it depends on what part of the country you live in, laws are different. I think the landlord is depending on the tenent on leaving the place clean enough for you to move in so he won't have to do it. and the tenent will, if he has a security deposit depending on how he left it. Before you even move in, you and your room mates and the landlord should do a walk-thru. If there is any damage or cleaning that should be done, it should be so noted. If you have to do it, make a deal to subtract it off the rent. I wouldn't sign a lease or give a deposit until this is understood. Does this help? |
