[@BobBlumenfeld]

@@sweet2sunshine I'm no lawyer, but the only instance of such a condition that I'm aware of relates to the 72-hour period after a door-to-door purchase, and that's because of the pressure-to-buy tactics such salespeople tend to use. On a lease or regular contract without an explicit clause permitting it? Ya sign it, ya bought it. And I find it interesting that the plaintiff apparently didn't even bother to research if six days was within such a period, or she would have found out it's not permitted.

Oh hell no!! When I rented, I always read EVERY damn bit of the ENTIRE lease, just like I have EVERY other contract I have had to sign! Every number in every amount, every paragraph, sentence, word, and letter in that damn thing! Look buddy, you hand me a 12 page lease, you might want to grab yourself lunch! This is going to take a while! If I find a typo, or an ambiguous statement, I tell them they either need to redo the lease, which I will read thoroughly again, or you can just type up an addendum, while I wait, but in either case, THIS lease STAYS with me, so I can make sure they didn't "accidentally" change anything else on it! They may be frustrated, but they quickly learn that I always pay my rent on time, the place is ALWAYS spotless, and I don't cause any problems! I also make sure ALL correspondence is by text, or email! I video the walk through process at the beginning, pointing out any issues, and at the end of the lease, and I also take detailed pictures. I usually get back my entire security deposit! It took getting burned too many times, and overcoming my anxiety over confrontation! It was a slow process, one step at a time, but TOTALLY worth it! These court shows have taught me SO much! Wow! 🫨 I just realized this is REALLY long! I am so sorry! 😥

[@jimh4167]

@@Anglynn74 never had an eviction Don't know but usually an eviction Is because the owner wants his property back And the tenant or ???? Doesn't want to leave

[@Anglynn74]

@@jimh4167 millions of evictions happen all the time to people who bought the property they're living in. Many like myself, I bought my house in 2004, paid my mortgage every month, never missed a payment, my mortgage company committed fraud on my loan & foreclosed on me, in 2021 a local investor bought my home & filed an eviction on me & I had to leave after living there for almost 20 years. It was my house, no one else's. Eviction often happens due to this, more than people think, millions, thousands per day. When the homeowner cannot afford an attorney & they have to defend themselves in court pro se this is what happens, this is our justice system. Unfortunately the public associates "eviction" with mainly renters and that's very far from what's actually happening out there.

When you sign a lease, you are agreeing to the terms like how much the rent is every month, deposit and if it is a six-month lease. And when you pay less on the rent, that is breaking the lease and can be evicted. Plaintiff did damage to the stove and believes that stainless steel stove is inexpensive. Defendant opened the freezer door hard and broke the handle. She is really carless with people's appliances. And then the plaintiff wanted to keep talking while the judge was thinking. Never disturb a judge when he/she is thinking. And the plaintiff lost.
