answered on Oct 16, 2018
Do you have a lease which allows him to charge you late fees as additional rent? If you do, then it is considered rent, and every month you haven't paid it, it could be considered late. If you don't have a lease or it doesn't state that the late fees are considered rent, then he... View More
The reasons is lost revenue from the lease. I met the neighbor who said he wants to move his father into my sister old apartment. If that is the case I don't think landlord would be able to claim lost revenue.
Landlord offered $500 as a consolation. Do I take it? Not? Do I fight this?

Your situation can only be figured out with an in person consultation and document review. Your situation has too many moving parts and variables to provide an online answer that could be helpful.

That depends on the contract itself and the type of contract. More facts are required to provide a meaningful answer.

Send them a letter via certified mail and regular mail that you are cancelling and block any authorized debt that they might be charging you and contact the NJ Dept of Consumer Affairs. If all else fails retain an attorney to write a letter for you.

We booked a photographer and paid 1600$ for a deposit. He double booked on our engagement session and wasn’t going to tell us but instead blamed it on the weather.

Without a written contract the photographer would be hard-pressed for a court to agree that this was a non-refundable contract. I suggest you contact a lawyer to write a letter on your behalf because it's apparent he's not just going to give you the money.

This is not the type of transaction that you should engage in long distance. If she does chose to sue you, it would be in NC. A signed contract is not essential to this matter. Threatening to sue someone is easy, actually doing it successfully is not.
