I entered into a lease three months ago, with two other roomates, for an apartment. I am a full time student and put up the first, last, and security with my federal aid. An agreement of a third of this is to be paid back to me from each of the other two roomates. Bills like wise (rent, electric, gas) are split up into thirds to be paid each month. To this date one of the roommates has not paid for anything. Not for rent, bills, or personal debt (ie. His share of bills paid for by me and friends). He silently refuses to pay anything and will not move out. My other roommate and I have spoken to the complex landlords. Their stand point is to be paid in full each month regardless of roommate problems. They sugested to have himself sign off of the lease with our approval. Nevertheless, he will not move. He does not care about his credit or ours. He knows if we want to stay here we will pay his part regardless, but we can not afford it. We have attempted to keep reciepts on all payments. We have spoken to him several times about this. What can we do? What steps can we take? How can we get rid of the deadbeat roommate?
