have a one year lease, lived there about 9 months, attempted and successful breakin increasing, my car was stolen, landlord informed and does nothing. Told me I could move out at the end of Nov 2009. Last communicated to landlord on Sept 17 about breakin in my place (2nd floor). Is this sufficeint for 30 day notice to landlord or from the time I send in a written notice to landlord ?I have a rental lease in an apt that keeps getting broken or attempt to break in, landlord informed does nada?
Your landlord has no police power at all.
You are informing the wrong guy, you need to deal with the police.
This has no effect on your lease at all, you will be breaking your lease, 30 day notice or not. You will owe rent for 3 more months.
You need to look at your social circle, almost all home invasions are done by people the resident personally knows.I have a rental lease in an apt that keeps getting broken or attempt to break in, landlord informed does nada?
What do you think your landlord is, a police officer?
You have two months to go. I would not instigate any action in this area with so little time to go. Move your valuables to some place you know they are secure. Have other tenants had their vehicles stolen? If not then you probably were a random victim of a stolen car ring because you drive the kind of car that is favored by car thieves.
Did it look like the thief gave the once over by opening every door and drawer and leaving doors and drawers ajar? If not, then whomever broke in there knew exactly what to steal and exactly where it was. For example, you keep $1,000 cash in a shoe box on the top of your bedroom closet shelf.
Only the shoe box was disturbed in your closet. Either that thief was very lucky in picking the shoe box first or that thief knew that shoe box had money in it. In other words, inside job. Someone you know ripped you off or gave the word to a burglar to rip you off.
Finally has anyone else in the complex been robbed over the last nine months? If not, then you are either a random victim or someone knew you had something worth stealing.
No its not. What exactly do you want the landlord to do. This a matter for the police...not your landlord. Crime in the area is not a legal reason to break your lease.
If you have police reports for each incident , you can move out now.
