Jhansi B. tenant withholding rent saying landlord hasn't fixed the items
7 September 2012 | 52 replies
Usually the only thing they can say is they haven't found anything else yet in their rent range or that you are holding the security deposit.If it's they haven't found anything the judge will give the eviction order or maybe one more week to pay up.If it's the security deposit issue the judge might order you to give back the deposit and the tenant to and the tenant to be out by a certain date.If the tenant is claiming they had to make repairs then the judge will ask for receipts from a valid business with a date and time and proof the tenant paid for the repairs.In all the years of the judges being on bench the last one in our area said they have seen the repair defense thousands of times but have never seen a tenant produce repair receipts.I am sure it has happened but it is rare.The judge will validate the receipts are not inflated receipts from uncle bubba their friend or that work was done and they said to bill the landlord when the tenant is claiming they paid out of pocket (trying to double dip and get a repair credit off rent and then stick landlord with the repair bill at the same time).Every area is different but this is how I see these cases go down in mine.If they mention the mold as said give back security deposit and tell them they need to move.Say the place can't be made safe while people are are living there or storing things there.Sounds like a professional tenant just yanking your chain and that you have an older building with issues and they are using that against you.No legal advice.

Robert D. Tenant property
5 October 2011 | 3 replies
There are clear laws in place for dealing with former-tenant property.Your case is a little confusing as the personal property arrived at the premises AFTER the tenant left, but I believe you're still obligated to:1) Notify the tenant you have his personal property2) Safely store the property (hint: you can charge him for storage)3) Hold onto the property for 15 - 18 days, depending on how you notified him. 4) If the property is valued at $300 or more, it must be auctioned off publicly.
