Question

My landlord gave me a 30 day order to vacate

What is the name of your state?

New York

I signed a lease for 1 year. 7 months after being in the household the Landlord sold the house. On June 22, 2005 he gave me an order to vacate the premises by July 30, 2005. When he gave me this notice I immediately went out and rented another home equitable to the one I am renting. On June 25, 2005 I gave the new landlord a deposit to hold the home. When the first came around I did not pay July 2005 rent. I explained to the landlord he could simply keep the security deposit for Julys rent. In addition, after I signed the lease he wrote in pen that I was responsible for the water bill. Which I paid $150.00 because I did not want to cause any trouble. Now because I did not pay July 2005 rent he is taking me to court on July 19th. He said he is going to ask the Judge to remove me in 72 hours. Is he entitled to charge me for Julys rent sense he is the one who broke the lease?

The date of the first lease is 11/2004-11/2005.

This is the letter he sent to me

To whom it may concern

I Ed Rod, being the landlord of 825 willis ave, would like to provide Paulete Dumigan with the highest recommendation as being an excellent tenant for the past year. She has always paid her rent on time and I have never had one problem. The reason she is seekin a new residence is, because the house has been sold. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call me at 315-516-0876

plus he had me sign a 30 day vacate order.

June 22, 2005

Thumbs up
The Lease is from 10/14/2004 to 10/14/2005
Quoted from other thread.

Paulete lovey.. go to other thread hit edit and delete.. you are a newbie so you can be forgiven and sometimes there are glitches.

Now... why did you let him break your lease? they are not to be messed with!

Is there something else up with this "lease" that we do not know about. A LEase is a LEASE! That means if YOU break it you have to pay some fairly mean fines missy... so if THEY do... DITTO!!... have you spoken to anyone else about this... someone with some letters behind their names~~~

(by the way... delete your other post... go to it look at edit and hit delete and delete twice... )


Sheesh you are.. ( hold on let me chanmel Carnac) Ummm 23 years old!!!

Luv ya kiddo!!

You are still required to pay your rent when due, breaking the lease is one thing paying the rent is another, you cannot use your security deposit as rent.

The landlord was obligated to you for the full term of the lease, you did not have to go off and find something else until the end of the lease, you certainly cannot just stop paying rent, the landlord is right to file an eviction.

If you want to stay in the unit then pay your rent if you want to leave pay your rent. The landlord is right to charge you rent for any time you are in the unit.

He terminated the lease before it was over and told me to move. I was accomodating him. I am in the middle of moving beside there are only four reasons a landlord can terminate none of which I did. I dont have the money to pay him the rent because it is applied to another security deposit of the house I will be moving into.

Does not matter what he said he was still obligated to the full term of the lease....

You still need to pay your rent no matter how mad you get.

response

I never have called anyone stupid or even implied..... Some people are too touchy in here. I have apologised more than once about the threads do not intend to anymore.

So what you are saying is my best recourse is to pay the landlord for this months rent and force him to honor the lease until October? He is desperate to sell the house so he does not have to declare bankruptcy.... or at least that is the explanation he gave for selling.

Paulete, as already stated by South, you cannot use your security deposit as July's rent.

Pay him July's rent because you owe rent until July 30. The LL has a right to take you to court for nonpayment of rent.

The Landlord broke the lease, but you accomodated him willingly. You didn't have to, but what is done is done.

You already have another house on deposit and are in the process of moving. Did you sign a lease at the new place? If so, you could get yourself in a world of trouble for backing out now.

Then I guess I will have to go to court and have the judge settle it because I cannot pay him the rent I used it for deposit on the new house. Everyone is looking at this as if I am the one who broke the lease I was perfectly happy to remain in this house and fulfill my obligations. But for his action with the 30 day vacate order I would have never looked into renting another home. Where is his responsibility in this? action=reaction

Does he have to pay the security deposit back if it is tied up in a bankruptcy or the sale of the house?

When I go to court do I have the right to ask the judge to post pone the case until I get legal representation?
