Ok…so from my other posts most of you may know that I am moving June 1st. When we moved into our current place, our roommate was already living here. He “neglected” to tell us that we owed him money for last months rent until yesterday. Now, he wants us to move out July 1st or pay him last months rent now, including may’s. Either way, we’re losing a lot of money. Now, the sticky part. We never signed a lease, we paid month to month and the landlord never said anything about last months rent. The landlord is now claiming that we never gave him 2 months notice (I informed him April 1st) because we never submitted it in writing and now he is saying that we can’t move out until July 1st. Again, we gave him 2 months, he waited until today to tell us that he wanted it in writing and we never signed a lease agreeing to this.
He also claims that it may be longer than july 1st because he has to come down from Sudbury (where he lives, 6 hours away) and check for damages and we can’t move until he does that. My problem is that he never checked for damages before we moved in and may pin them on us even though last time he came down, we pointed them all out to him. The only damage that occured since we moved in is the blinds that the cat detroyed, which we are replacing anyway. He made no record of the damages we pointed out after we moved in and so, we may have to pay.
We’ve been in this house for a year and during this time we’ve all been sick (nauseous sick). The woman in the main floor apartment has been as well and her children both suffered at least 4 seizures in the bathroom alone. This was attributed, last week, to a gas leak from the furnace which landlord neglected to fix. We called him twice a month to clean the furnace, have it serviced and the ducts cleaned and he finally did, hence this was discovered.
Also, the refridgerator was included with the place. It broke 3 times in the last month and they finally replaced it today but not before we lost almost $300 worth of food combined.
