Landlord raised my rent, issues with the house
So long story short my landlord raised my rent from $950 to $1,050, the house has termites and mold in the attic space caused by a leaking roof and no proper ventilation, my power went out a few days ago after a high wind came and a big tree limb fell on the power line pole on the house.
and I told him about it and all the issues going on with the attic while he was here, he had my power back on yesterday within 2 hrs. He told me he wasn’t going to do anything about the termites because he had already got an exterminator this was 3 years ago they treated one spot under the house that was it.
Then I told him about the floor joists collapsing in the corner of the bedroom he told me he wasn’t going to do anything to it till after I move out.
I think he told me he was going to fix the roof and gutters but I feel I shouldn’t have a rent increase and living like this. I told him I was wanting to get my own place within the next year or so.
I’m fed up with landlords and renting the past 2 landlords I’ve had all screwed me over kept my deposits for no reason one of them even said “we don’t do that” when I asked about it.
I’m taking every little thing I put into the property, leaving nothing behind. I have receipts for it all.
I’ve been in this house for 6 years, told me he likes me I take care of the house, then turns around and raises my rent
NEVER RENT FROM A FLIP FOR PROFIT LANDLORD!
