Top 5 Reasons Tenants Sue Their Landlord
Rental agreements are legally binding contracts, but what happens when landlords don’t hold up their end of the deal? In this video we review the top 5 reasons tenants can use to successfully sue their landlord. A rental agreement is a legal contract between a tenant and a landlord or third-party owner representative. Unfortunately, contracts of this nature can result in all sorts of issues if not executed correctly. But today we are going to focus on 5 major disputes that often arise. These include -
1. Disputes over security deposit funds
2. Breaching a tenant’s right to quiet enjoyment
3. Concerns over safety or livability
4. Landlords not following legal eviction procedures
5. Violating a tenant’s consumer reporting rights
With all of that in mind, we also take a moment to discuss whether or not a court battle is really the necessary action to take. Before taking such a drastic step, it is a good idea for parties to try and work together. Some local jurisdictions offer advice and free resources that can help landlords and tenants resolve issues without leading to a costly court case. We recommend talking to a qualified attorney before moving forward and be sure to try working with the landlord first. Often, that will work out best for everyone involved.
