I recently moved into a "Luxury Apartment" and signed a one year lease. I have had several maintence problems since I moved in and have had a very hard time getting the problems resolved. Recently my husband was given orders to deploy to Afghanistan and I want to move back home. More recently I have discovered that one of the apartment's maintence people came into my apartment while I was gone and looked up pornography. I no longer feel comfortable in my apartment and need to know if I have grounds to terminate my lease. I'm not sure if there are any state laws that help but I live in NC. Also, I did put the event in writing and filed a report.

All you have to do is provide your leasing office a copy of his orders. Legally they cannot bind you to the agreement if he is in active military duty and he is half of your income source. I hope your maintenance dude washed his hands.

frequently, the in elementary words time you could legally smash the employ without paying a ton of money is that if the different social gathering breaks it first. this suggests your landlord has lengthy gone hostile to his end of the deal. searching on the nice print of your employ, this can include their failure to maintain the residence, like a refrigerator not operating, clogged plumbing, etc. Even then, you somewhat a lot ought to have some thing proving that you tried to get the issue resolved. So, snakes probably are probably now unlikely to get you out!

don't b*tch about maintenance, but talk nicely to the manager's boss and explain that you cannot afford to pay the rent with your small single income and are afraid to be paying late or occasionally not at all...
offer to pay the real estate ad and enable showings to find a new tenant - they'll find it hard to refuse, knowing that otherwise they'd not get paid for months

laws are weird from state to state .

Have you ever heard of people taping your most privates moments ,and by law ,there's nothing you can do ,and it sucks .
You live in a country with almost no rights ,I'm from Brazil we very poor ,but we can say whatever its in our minds and not be scared ,Guilty people have more rights ,then the victim .find another route .My prayers will be with you and your husband .
