Title

Renting or leasing a home

Definition

This category is about the process of renting or leasing a home, and problems that may come up while renting a home, mobile home lot, or while living in a group home or homeless shelter. It includes landlord-tenant issues for private rentals, subsidized homes, public homes, or other situations where the person living in the property doesn't own it. Some scenarios in this category include a dispute with a landlord about rules or property, difficulty getting a security deposit back, the denial of reasonable accommodations for a medical condition, trouble getting a written lease or rental contract, failure to receive basic services or repairs, a threat of eviction, denial or trouble with a housing voucher or subsidy, harassment for rent, denial of relocation assistance from an unsafe rental unit, and denial of a rental unit because of prior juvenile or criminal system involvement.
