Am i dealing with this landlord right
Posted: Fri Jul 30, 2010 3:13 am
so heres the story moved into this place because my wife and i couldnt agree on a spot to build. to get out of the year long lease i paid for 4 months then we agreed it would be month to month afterwards. first month after the 4 i prepaid i paid rent on the 1st he didnt have his receipt book so i had him write one out by hand. on the 23 of june i got another bonus check so i paid ahead for this month july. on the 17th of july he asked if i was gonna pay any rent and was a dick about it then said its hard in this economy and complained about a bank note he had on the place. so i told him i paid on the first and the 23rd of june for june and july i couldnt find the receipts at the time but showed the marks on my calender the days i paid he claimed he never came over and i tried to remind him of it then he left saying hed look through his books
today he came over and left a new receipt saying i did infact pay on the 23rd but never on the first of june even though i have receipts for both. so what im doing is getting my bank statements the receipts and phone records of when i called him to tell him i had rent together then notifying him of my intent to move out by the 8th. im not gonna do any sort of business with someone like this. So what im wondering is if thats good enough to prove i paid or do you think he'll try to take me to court. ive never had a really bad landlord ive only rented 2 other times then owned everything ive been in.
SO im covered right?
