Renting Real Estate Questions and Answers

Can i break my rental lease because there was no home inspection before i moved in?




Answers: Home inspection? By who? No formal inspection has to be done. Generally the renter inspects themselves and decides to apply or not to apply.

I have never had an offical home inspection other then my yearly for my section 8 renters (I have 2 of them).
nope
you can get most of you deposit back and maybe move to another apartment in the same place...free
but if you didnt write it down or have a paper to turn in later..
It is unlikely that you can break your rental agreement just because there was no home inspection.

However, if the real problem is there is something seriously wrong with the home (something that makes the home unsafe or uninhabitable) you may have grounds to break your lease.
Some localities have "rental inspections" done by your Codes Compliance division/Property maintenance inspectors. Your locality would have to adopt such a code and you would find it in your city code. Check into it.

If you complain they could be issued a notice of violation but that does nothing for your situation. You are still bound by your lease.

If there is damage to the rental property you should put in writing any repairs that are needed and send it certified with proof of mailing. Give a reasonable amount of time for them to make the repairs (usually 21 - 30 days). If the work is not done you can take your lease, the letter and proof of mailing to general district court and open an escrow account and set a court date. You pay your rent to the court until you go before the judge. The judge can then dispurse the money the way he/she sees fit...towards repairs or back to you. You may be released from your lease obligation.

Please G00GLE search your state Landlord Tenant act and read carefully...or see an attorney.
No. It's your responsibility to understand and know what you are renting. If that takes an inspection, that would be your responsibility. If you failed to obtain one, you rented 'as is'.

Real Estate within Manhattan?

I am thinking of relocating to Manhattan pretty soon and I would like to purchase apartment/brown stone to live surrounded by. From an investment point of view, what neighborhoods within Manhattan are up-and-coming?
I know that it is a buyers' market, but is it really a buyers' flea market in Manhattan as capably? Is it a good time to purchase an aparment or even a brown stone to live surrounded by and rent(the other residences)?

I insist on Manhattan and do not want Brooklyn/Queens, Jersey, Bronx, etc.

Thanks for all your inputs contained by advance!


Answers: if truth be told ive heard heaps people are selling bc of high-ranking insurance rates propelled by the fear of a hurricane or some sort of disaster.and its one and only going to get worse... (brooklyn - williamsburg, greenpoint, cobble hillock, etc. is actually a great investment)

How do I break a apartment lease?

Answers: You can check your lease for any possible terms laid out contained by the lease itself for early termination of the lease. If at hand are none, then it's the choice of the manager concerning the terms. You can't break a lease in need the agreement of the landlord, and you can be held liable for adjectives costs to re-rent the unit to someone else, plus monthly rents until the part is re-rented.

If you are thinking that your situation somehow qualifies you to break your lease, it does not.
contact tenant ASAP

maybe they're supportive, maybe not.

expect this to cost.
What I did be ask if I could pay a % of my monthly rent until the tenant found a new resident and they agreed. Money still comming in for the proprietor was accurate enough. Maybe propose to put an add contained by the paper for him?
