Homeowners associations filed 284,933 liens against U.S. homeowners in 2025, an 8.6% increase from the 262,446 filings in 2024, equivalent to one lien every 90 seconds.

The lawsuit claims that the portal tricks consumers into using agents affiliated with Zillow through its Flex and Premier Agent programs, resulting in inflated home purchase prices.

Good urbanism should transcend politics. Socialists and capitalists can walk the same neighborhood and agree it's a pleasant place to live. They can each appreciate the tree canopy, the corner café with people spilling onto the sidewalk, the mix of ages on bikes and on foot, the architectural details of older buildings, and so on.

Rent in a commercial lease is not just a single figure; it can be gross, net, or semi-gross, each affecting overall financial commitments differently.

"The landlord did not pay attention to this house whatsoever. We didn't even know we had a landlord."

Couples and families who paid deposits and signed contracts for new homes in a Co Meath housing estate have said they will consider legal action after being told that 'an enforceable contract does not exist'.

A landlord has a legal duty to make appropriate repairs and to do so promptly once notified. The rules governing landlord entry into a rental unit are stated in California Civil Code Section 1954. This statute says that a landlord may enter only during normal business hours and only for a legitimate reason, which includes repairs, and only after giving 24 hours written notice to the tenant.

Once she paid rent and moved in, she became a month-to-month tenant, regardless of the length of time she stayed in your house. As a month-to-month tenant, she is required to give you a 30-day written notice of termination, and she is responsible for rent during that 30-day period, whether she stayed there or not.

Insult has been added to injury for the estimated 200 people who were displaced by Monday morning's apartment fire in Oakland's Uptown, after their landlord issued them all eviction letters. You may recall the early morning apartment fire in Oakland's Uptown neighborhood at 19th Street and Broadway on Monday of this week, which also damaged the ground-floor Dope Era clothing store owned by local hip-hop icon Mistah F.A.B.

Rajinder Singh Pander, of Windsor, Berkshire, had been served an enforcement notice by Hounslow Council requiring him to demolish the unsafe building - but he ignored the order and continued to rent out the property on Worthing Road, Heston, west London. A young family, including a child, lived there for two years in "cramped and substandard living conditions, giving rise to serious concerns about their health and wellbeing", according to Hounslow Council.

Under a state law called the Costa-Hawkins Rental Housing Act, landlords can reset the starting rent price at any level once tenants move out of a unit and new residents move in. That's where things got tricky in Woo's situation. According to a lawsuit Woo filed in January, their building's property manager had Woo's partner sign the lease in March 2024. Woo, even though they were the one who'd found the apartment and would be moving in together with their then-partner, was told to sign a separate document instead.

Rising utility costs continue to be a pain for the average U.S. renter. Energy-efficient rental features that help lower these costs like LED lighting, good insulation, and smart thermostats are becoming a baseline for renters.

What that became, in practice, was closer to psychic warfare. "We both tried to leverage the fact that we're supposed to be friends," Henry said. "I'd use it against him all the time: 'Come on, dude, what are you talking about?' And he'd do the same thing to me." Take, for example, the time Henry and his fiancé fostered a dog without asking Reid first: "I was like, 'He is not going to evict us for having a dog.'"

Opposition says reforms will fuel more homelessness, emigration of skilled workers and delays in starting families
