What is the name of your state? ca
i was recently evicted, well actually truth be told i was locked out by the sheriff. The reason for my eviction was non-payment of rent, i have been in severe financial distress and i got behind on my rent. i recieved the 5 day notice to vacate but i thought that i would be able to borrow the money to pay the back rent before the 5th day of the notice as i had done once before. I however wasnt able to come up with the money so i was locked out and i had to leave behind ALL of my belongings.
When i left i had nowhere to go so i had to rent a room at a motel which wasnt a very economical solution but i had no other choice, since i didnt have the money needed to rent another place right away. I spoke with the LL the next day and she said that before i could get anything out of the house i would need to pay storage fees amounting to $70 a day. but in order for me to be able to get my belongings out i would need a place to take them to, keep in mind i have a full 3 bedroom townhome that is fully furnished with a 2 car garage crammed with stuff including my car that has a blown engine, so i would need a very large storage. So now i hav very little money, a daily hotel expense as well as a daily storage expense and i need to find both a new place to rent as well as a sizeable storage, it seems like an unwinnable battle. Then after about two weeks i got a call from a neighbor saying that the LL had informed him that i could come and get my stuff out without having to pay the storage fees. So i called the LL to find out what was going on and she told me that i could in fact come and get my stuff but there was a problem... it seems that the power had been turned off and i had 2 aquariums that began to smell so she had to hire some relatives to clean up, then she informed me that she had no way to pay them so she let them pick out what they wanted from my apartment! I was shocked and in disbelief, so i drove down to the complex and went to her apartment, she then proceeded to tell me that i would need to pay her $800 for storage fees and since it had been past 15 days the property in the apartment was no longer mine. What can i do?
