What is the procedure of owning your rented land after living on it for more than sixty (60) years? What are the rights of rented land tenants? What are you to do if the owner of the land you have been renting from is dead? What are you to do if no one ever come forward to claim the land you are living on?

Can HDC increase your rent when you are requested by them to come in and give them your family.And threaten you with evication when you request a new contract to sign for any increases in rent.That has happened to me .

My appartment had 2 windows and one door to enter and leave. My landlord has blocked one of my windows to build another apartment now i have one window and he keeps telling me he'll do something about the ventilation. Now he wants 100 dollars more from next month. What steps can i take to stop this injustice?

My landlord increased the rent by two hundred dollars monthyly indicating that the electricity bill went up, no comparison was provided to verify such. For almost a year two lights were not functioning in the apt, for sim months cable was not working and the ac unit also was not functional. Even though, messages were left regarding complaints and nothing was done until long after, there was a delay in providing funds for rent. Now I am given less than a week to vacate the apt, what, if any redress is possible?

I signed a lease agreement for a certain sum of money later the land lord decided to raise the cost by $400.dollars and I agreed to the extra charge ,however the lease agreement constitued if at any point I wish to end the contract ,I can do so by giving 30 days proper notice . I lived in the unit for 6 months during which time I realized there was no privacy what so ever anyways I decided to give my 30 day notice to end the tenancy , By mid month I was being harrased by the landlord ,It looks as though they wanted an early move out before the end of my last 30 days .what can I do ? In such a case.

If the Rent Assessment Board nor the Rent Restriction Acts don't cover rents in excess of $1,500.00 which piece of legislation does? If my rent is due on the 26th September and I move into another apartment on the 4th of October, do I have to pay a full rent? What are my rights as a tenant?
