Need Legal Help - Housing

[f8nacn]

Praying that you will get your money back and that you won't have to go to court. But if you do have to go to court, I don't see a problem in you getting the money you paid back - as it was a deposit and that only. There may be a problem with not having any documents signed, but God grants us favor in all situations. God will deal justly with the individual who, basically, used you.

The shadylord has cashed the check and thinks of you as a "inconvenience". You should contact the Dept. of Housing as well as inform your seminary that this person is not reputable. From your description, shadylord sounds like they could use a visit from a housing inspector so they can be brought up to date on codes and possible fines.

I pray you get your money back.

I would also bet a lot of money that the home is not properly zoned to have tenants in addition to the family.

The best thing you can do is make sure the "landlord" gets caught so that s/he can't screw over anyone else.

That, I will definintely do. I'll wait until I get my money back, which may require some time in court. But, I'm not going to let her off the hook. Thanks for all the responses!
