Q: We moved from Woburn to Danvers. The Woburn owners are giving us problems. I'm 77 years old and don't know what to do
There are three issues to be addressed. The failure to present us with the Security Deposit Bank Statement identify the bank, account #, amount of deposit and interest rate. Housing law says that if the landlord does not present this to the tenant within 30 days of payment, the default rate of 5% kicks in. We just got the statement two years after with a check for $.77.
Charges for damages for work done which was under the guidance of the owner.
Failure to cooperate with rental assistance application. The first time, it took 6 months to get one signed. The last time never happened despite the wife’s promise to MGB so wife’s promise to MGB social worker Florenny Cabrera (Flo). They keep sending us certified letters demanding money. Can someone please help us? Thanks, Clint
