Landlord wont let me pay

[TESS527]

What is the name of your state?IOWA I signed a leese to own in Feb2005. In june the landlord got divoriced and now wants her house back. She will not accept the payments of 400 a month of witch 250 is to go to equity of the house. we have been to court 1 time and it judge mthrew it out because she had not given a notice to pay only a notice to quit. since then I have found another house and started financing steps so I could move and leave this mess behind. now I have come to the step that the finance company wants rent reciept. I have none from June July Aug Sept Oct, because she will not take the leese payment, and I can not get financing without it but how can I get her to take the leese payment.Also should I have to give her the hole 400 or just the 150 that would not be applied to the equity of the house. I really dont even want the house now but I dont want to get stuck holding the short end of the stick. is there still a law about refusle of payment clears the debts especialy since she did it in front of the judge. hope you can help

You can't force her to give you a receipt for payments you didn't make (or her accept).
And no, your lease obligation is NOT waived due to her failure to accept. I suggest you send/give her checks for your rent. Whether she cashes them or not is up to her. Keep copies of ALL checks and check register.
