Hello everyone,
Thank you for taking the time to read this post. I'm having a few problems with my landlord and any advice would be appreciated. The biggest problem I'm having right now revolvs around my rent to own lease agreement. First, I will give a bit of background on the situation.
I first bought the mobile home in April, was told that there was one small leak wrong with the home and I accepted the terms that I would fix that. We agreed that on top of the 355 a month lot rent I would pay 100 dollars a month and the home would be paid of by September 2009. The landlord's...mistress took the paperwork and said she needed to have the serial number added in June 2008, and I have been fighting to get it back. Now I have a posting on my door that they are adding intrest to the payment and extending it to January 2010. Now...in the past almost year that I have lived here, our pipes, the water heater, and the furnance have all broken. We currently have no heat or hot water. I don't know if he is supposed to cover the fixes while it's in the rent state or not. Further more I am unable to get insurance on the house because I have no serial number. I have sent two written requests (Which were kept on record) to the manager's office in a span of two months and have not heard anything. Now he is raising the lot rent (which is the highest around as it is) and charging for the small dog I have, even though I'm buying the home? I'm not sure what my options are at this point...
When I bought the home I put down a 2000 dollars deposit...is there a chance I could get that back and just leave?
If I decide not to leave, what are my rights in respect to the situation?
Your guidence is appreciated. Thank you.
Best Regards,
Christina
