I moved out of a house early, in which my roommate's name was the only name on the lease (the landlord had told us only one of us needed to sign). I moved out with the intention to find some to move in for December.
Before I moved into the house, in September, the windows in my 3rd floor room needed severe repairing. They are rotted away (two of them), painted with lead (there is a lead disclaimer in the lease), and the panes are loose. In one pane, there is a crack about three inches wide. I told the landlord that they would need to be repaired for when I moved in (I told her this early-Sept).
When I moved in (mid-Sept), they were not repaired.
I asked again when the weather was very cold (Oct). Nothing.
I moved out in mid Nov, paying full rent for the month, giving her 2 weeks to fix them before another girl moved in. Nothing.
Dec 1st was the move in date. She said she would fix them the weekend of. Guess what?
Now the girl won't move in.
Am I really stuck paying rent for Dec???
