Do you have to pay rent if the apartment has a problem?
You do if you have a lease agreement or f you stay in the apartment when you have no lease. There are conditions under which you can withhold rent, but these conditions vary from state to state and all require formal notice to the landlord about why the rest is withheld .
If your landlord lost your signed lease and that was the only copy are you liable to stay in that apartment?
The landlord must give you a copy of your lease within 30 days. There is usually a paper you both sign saying you received it. If it is lost you are not liable to stay in the apartment. On the other hand, this also means the landlord can evict you or raise your rent on you without warning because of no proper documentation.

In NYS, the landlord is not obligated to meet such a request. He may do so at his own option.
Is it illegal to sign the lease for your own apartment if you are already on a lease with your boyfriend but you move out?
No. But, you will still be responsible for your share of the previous lease unless the landlord/rental agency (not the the other leasees) agree to release you from your obligation.

What happens when a landlord asks a tenant to vacate?
If there is no lease involved, and there are no violations of the terms of the lease or agreement, the landlord has to give at least 30 days of notice before the next rent is due, for the tenant to vacate the premises. If there is a lease involved and there are no violations of the terms of the lease, the landlord must wait until the end of the lease term in order to ask tenant to vacate the premises. If the tenant does not vacate the premises after proper notice is given that the landlord must initiate eviction proceedings to force the tenant out
If you are buying a new house but still have time left on your apartment lease can you get out of the lease without paying penalties?
Probably not. However, I suggest to you that you negotiate an early termination of your lease with the landlord. Inform him/her that you have purchased a home and that you need to vacate the property before the original term of the lease. offer the landlord to cooperate while the landlord shows the apartment to prospective tenants. Tell the landlord that you are prepared to keep paying rent and vacate the unit only when a new tenant has been secured. Be pro-active, help the landlord. Put up a flyer in your building and/or around your neighborhood regarding your unit for rent. It is most likely that your landlord will be Ok with ending your lease without penalty if he/she has found a replacement tenant, and if you have shown your willlingness to cooperate. Landlords are people too...You'll be amazed how easy it is to get out of your lease without significant cost to you if you appraoch the landlord with the right attitude. Good luck.
Can the landlord charge the tenant a fee for breaking the lease if the apartment is rented again in few days?
This depends upon whether that fee is quoted on your lease when you signed it. It is not there, then landlord cannot charge you because he rented the apartment quickly after you left. However he may be able to keep your security deposit if you broke your lease. If there was a lease, the terms are generally such that you are responsible for the rent for any month that the apartment is vacant from the time you vacate the apartment to the time the lease ends OR the apartment is rented out, whichever comes first. Since the landlord did not suffer any damage by breaking the lease - he rented out the unit just a few days that you left - there shouldn't really be any reason for him to charge a fee. But if that is stated on your lease then he has the right to do so.

If I cosign an apartment lease for a friend can I file bankruptcy against the landlord to get out of the lease.
Can you landlord have you sign a lease and then say you did not get the apartment?
No. A lease is a legally binding contract, which obligates both the landlord and tenant to a tenancy for the term of the lease. If you and the landlord both signed a lease, and the landlord refuses to give you occupancy of the property, you need to see a landlord-tenant attorney or tenant's rights group immediately!

Can a landlord just tell you to vacate if your lease is up in Pennsylvania?
You bet they can. Some leases have language in them that say they automatically renew for another year, and other leases contain language that says they turn into a month-to-month lease. Your landlord would have to evict you if they wanted you out if the lease contains either of those clauses. Barring that, at the end of your one year lease, you have no title to that apartment if the landlord chooses not to renew your lease. No landlord in PA is specially obligated to renew any lease. If you've been a good tenant, they probably will, but if you've been a pain to deal with, they're probably not going to renew you and they'll try their luck with another tenant.
