What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA
Hello everyone, I have a question about a 3 day notice and some other issues I have been having with our landlord.My mother has been renting a 4 bedroom home for one year along with my sister and her daughter and 2 brothers.I separated from my wife about 6 months ago just when the contract ended and moved in with them.
The home has 2 studios on the side and my mother has been paying for all the bills including what the 2 occupied studios use.I have been telling her that I do not think is fair for her to pay all the bills including for 2 more families.I told her to ask the landlord for a copy of the contract of the first 6 months and she did on 3 different occasions and the landlord has refused to give her a copy.well after the contract ended and I arrived there was no contract renewal yet she still pays all the bills.
Another issue is that the landlord and their family members enter our backyard without notice. One time my sister was changing in her room and one of the sons saw her as she had her curtains slightly open. Other times my daughters have came running to me that there are strangers in the backyard. My mother told them they have to notify us before entering yet they have done it on a few more occasions.
The landlord has a chair rental business and she has all her equipment in our backyard, it's small as it is with the studios and they make it worse by having all this equipment in the backyard, plus they have some bikes hanging right next to our back door which is very dangerous. Again my mother has told her and she has not done anything about it. We have a faulty stove, and we have pests, we told her about 2 months ago and she has refused to fumigate or repair the stove.
A new tenant moved in next door and he has created a fence for his dogs that has made our backyard even smaller. The landlord never told us or asked if it was ok to have dogs they just showed up out of the blue and started putting up the fence. Now we pay the water bill yet we don't have access to a water hose in the backyard because it is enclosed by this fence. We told her about it about 3 days ago and she has refused to do anything about it.
Another thing also, like 6 different families receive mail here including the landlord and 3 previous tenants and the current tenants. We told her about it about 4 months ago yet they still receive mail here.
We feel like they have invaded our property and disrespected us as tenants, now I don't know if they have broken any landlord/tenant laws and wanted to ask what you guys thought. It also makes it really hard as she has not given us the first 6 months contract or renewed it for the past 6 months.
She served my mother with a 3 day notice this morning and we don't know what to do.
Thank you in advance.
