Unreasonable Landlord
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanx for respose.
The original lease states that the landlord must give notice to tenant before lease expires about renewal. The notice from last year (2007) states that if tenant do not give notice within 30 days to move then lease will convert to what previous lease was, which in my case is 12 months. month to month with rate increase.
It did not specifically state the time limit a tenant have to inform leasing office to change renewal terms. It just stated to inform office before lease expires about what wants in terms of renewal. Before my lease expired which is end of May, I gave notice to office that I want to change terms of renewal to month to month instead of 12 months, But management claims it's too late. I am now locked into 12 month lease. What can I do? Can I legally fight landlord to change terms of lease because I did not even get the notice landlord claimed to have sent. What are my options?
