+daddyairplanes 10,236 Posted February 24, 2014 this year is not starting very well. my old landlord sold the house out from under us, and it went nasty enough that we had to move when he cut the power off (the bad part of utilities staying in his name, was good at the start of the lease because i didnt haveto shell out 600 bucks to get it turned on). went to move to raleigh and this landlord signed a lease on payment of first months rent back on the 5th. he took the lease to "make copies" , then said he would not give us the lease until we paid the deposit. when we paid that and got hte lease back, he had cut the signatur portion off, and pencilled in a whole bunch of changes! i am currently trying to et a hold of the rental division of hte AG's office to look over both the lease, and the landlord himself. one thing that sticks in my mind from the conversation friday night is him saying "oh i've never had to evict anyone, they all just seem to leave." please pray for my family while we try to figure out just where we will be living.

Skyviper 1,101 Posted February 24, 2014 Wow. That is beyond insane and I hope legal action will turn out in your favor. I wish I could tell you something helpful ... perhaps your attorney general's office? I dunno. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

macelena 1,070 Posted February 24, 2014 Good luck man, with mofos like those you need to be completely untrusty. Keep as much ammo to sue the living crap out of them if you have to, probably that´s what would keep them from taking their shit too far. Hope it gets better eventually Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capitaine Vengeur 263 Posted February 24, 2014 Just hope that one day, your landlord will try 'not to evict' very bad people, and get what he deserves, with interests. And damages. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JediMaster 451 Posted February 25, 2014 This is one scenario that the "don't buy, just rent" people have no good response to. When you don't own it, you're vulnerable to the whims of the owner. If they turn out to be a jackhole... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
