ok - 1. I was told that i should file against my landlord first, stating that they did not follow the right procedures of the lease termination. Can I do this and how do i do this?
2. Can I request in this complaint a portion of the rent for each month they did not make the repairs? 3. Can I request in this complaint money that I (on my own with out the landlords permission) for the cost of the supplies I bought for repairs that I made? 4. Can I request in the same complaint for damages to my property because of items that were destroyed or damages from the water soaked ceiling falling on me and my stuff in the middle of the night. 5. If so how do I calculate a $ amount. Is it a percentage of what it is worth? I mean for a 5-year-old mattress that was constantly being water soaked when it rained I cannot claim the full price can I. 6. The property has a property management do I file the complaint against them, or the owner or both.
Last. The primary leaseholder is my husband we separated a couple of months after I moved in - and the landlord new it. Still everything even the letters that the landlord sends are in his name. Do I need him to file this complaint or can I do it?
