If you all read my prior report regarding illegal activities and tenant harassment, now read the rest of the story.

After I decided I had enough, I just left, no notice. I broke my lease, understanding that I would forfeit my deposits which would more than cover any losses to the complex. No problem.

Keep in mind that NV says that even if you break your lease, charges must be prorated for actual days lost on the lease until unit is re-rented, as they prorate the first month for the new tenant. Bottom line is that it is ILLEGAL in NV to double dip.

This complex had a very long waiting list and I left my apt in move in ready condition. Therefore, it was surely re- rented in less than 1 week.

I had a $350 security deposit, and a non-refundable cleaning deposit of $250, but I even cleaned the carpets anyway! My monthly rent was $695.

OK... Lets give them the benefit of the doubt and DOUBLE the # of days it took them to re-rent the apt to 15 days unrented.

For accounting purposes of rental proration the standard used in NV is 30.5 days in a month. That is $22.79 per day after rounding UP. $22.79 x 15 = $341.85. Now take the $350 security deposit less the $341.85 in lost rent. They still owe me $8.15!

They have me in collections for $459.00 [$340.00 + $119.00 collection fees].

Keep in mind they also got to keep a $40 key deposit for 2 generic keys they cut themselves, and have copies of, and a $30 gatecard deposit for 1 plastic card with a magnetic strip that costs about $1, and they are charging me $25 for stove rings and pans, which were there when I left! And $25 in legal fees! What lawyer do you know of that works for $25! I want to meet this one!

These people are the scum of the earth, and should be avoided at all cost!

I'll be putting them in collections for the $8.15 they owe me, and will be filing a lien on the property, which is done in NV without any justification at all, legally.

It's not about the money. It's principal.

They have me in collections for a BS amount. They made money when I left, there is no reason to have me in collections.

I'll sue them for the 8 bucks and let them eat a thousand in costs and legal fees.

I will do it for fun.

I already have plenty of $$, but these scumbags will never see 1 penny.

Just principal here.

Anytime Steve!!

I've had landlords like this in the past. The last one was a real gem. She thought she was above the landlord/tenant laws. She had to drive from Phoenix and I guess it was too much work to provide the 24 hr. notice!! When she would just show up, I wouldn't let her in the house. Then, she would cop an attitude, threatening to call the police!! I told her to go right ahead!! Guess what? No police ever showed up.

Fortunately we are now buying our home so no more crappy landlords!!!

GOOD LUCK with your lawsuit, sock it to them!!!

HOPE YOU HAVE A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!

Thanx Lori !

Yeah, you are 100% right, and the 24hr notice still does not give them automatic right of entry. If the tenant specifies he/she wants to be present, the landlord MUST setup a time within reasonable hours that will work for both parties, or not enter at all.

This was back in Nov. 2002 when I "skipped" as the manager put it. I did not skip, I calmly over 2 days cleaned my apt and packed my things and simply left!

I even advertised a moving sale and sold off excess belongings!

I have a few suprises for these scumbags.

Scumbags!! you are entitled to punitive damages!!

AUTHOR: Lori - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Monday, December 19, 2005

I have read your previous thread and I find their actions to be deploreable. Most states have a law stating that a landlord, or their representative must provide a 24 hr written notice before entering your dwelling. If they enter without proper notice, you are entitled to punitive damages!!

Make sure you have everything documented and take them to civil court.
