Landlord-tenant
disputes are a common occurrence in the renting process, and many could
be avoided if both parties were aware of their rights and
responsibilities. It may be an easy matter to rent out your property to
a tenant. However, to handle and manage a tenant can be a pain. Let’s
look at some very common questions and check your understanding in
Landlord Tenant Law.
1) What does it mean
that a tenant shall not "commit waste"?
2) What is a lease or rental agreement?
3) Is the landlord responsible for maintaining rental property and
complying with local housing codes?
4) What is "repair and deduct"?
5) What is "constructive eviction"?’
6) Can a landlord ever terminate a tenant's right to use and possess the
rental property?
7) Can a tenant ever terminate their legal obligations of a lease during
its term?
8) What happens to the right of use and possession at the end of the
period of time set forth in the lease?
9) If a tenant has not been around for over 6 months and not paid any
rent, can I clean out the apartment and re-rent it?
10) Can a tenant refuse to let an agent onto property after receiving 24
hours notice? The lease does not cover the issue.
The above question is
most common in any landlord tenant conversation, let's watch and listen
carefully to the below video clip for answers.
