Description
Renters' Rights lets you know what battles are worth fighting and how to handle the challenges of renting confidently and legally.
Sooner or later it will happen... . The landlord ignores your repair requests. Your roommates are once again late with their share of the rent. Your upstairs neighbors party all the time. The landlord won't return your security deposit. How can you deal with these problems--and others--or prevent them from happening at all? Turn to Renters' Rights if you need to:
- break a lease and leave early
- understand your credit and other consumer reports used to evaluate you as a tenant
- sublet your apartment
- deal with unwelcome landlord intrusions
- resolve a dispute with your roommate
- get your landlord to make repairs
- collect the security deposit you're owed, and
- fight discrimination or retaliation.
The 12th edition is completely updated to reflect changes to state laws and federal antidiscrimination laws. It also includes advice on how to deal with corporate landlords and property managers.
