Based on your facts, no ethical rules are violated. You probably need to look at the law dealing with whatever cause of action is involved, but first you have to have standing. Intervenors get thrown out all the time.
I bought a single family residence after the seller disclosed the house had a Class 4 roof. My property insurance discount is contingent on having a Class 4 roof. Neither the seller nor El Paso County can provide me with any evidence to certify the roof is Class 4. What is my legal recourse?
answered on Jan 23, 2024
You can hire an inspector to inspect the roof and certify that it is, in fact, a Class 4 roof, and provide that certification to your property insurer.

Whoever has title to the home can sue you for possession.

No partition is a option. Allot of your options depends on the other party, where the property is located and various other facts.
Most partition situations can be handle via contract as well. I would do some research and reach out to an attorney to discuss your options.

It sounds like you may have a title issue.
If you are concerned the government is using the land without your permission, it could be a taking or trespass. It is also likely there is some type of agreement on the property. Regardless, you would need to dig deeper into it.

I am sorry you are dealing with this. You should keep a record of the harassment, talk to the landlord, file a complaint with the housing authority, or consult with an attorney.

That's very creative, but you received actual notice of the increase, so if you're asking whether you can avoid the increase by renewing quickly, the answer is no - unfortunately.

I can't interpret the phrasing on the deed without seeing the entire document, but in general, the phrase "1/3 ENT" likely means a "one-third interest" or a one-third ownership is conveyed to that person. Contact an attorney and ask for help interpreting the deed and... View More
Our rent was last raised in July. C.R.S. 38-12-702 is supposed to prevent landlords from raising rent more than once in the last 12 months, even for month-to-month leases.

It depends. If the 50% fee is a holdover fee, then it may be legal. If it is a late fee or rent increase, then it becomes more doubtful. Late fees should not be close to that amount. A rent increase can be to any amount provided they meet the timeframe requirements.
If the fee is not... View More

Company B is likely just the servicer and not the actual note holder. This happens routinely and and is generally nothing to worry about.
We got a reconciliation with amounts withheld much higher than expected, and the numbers are all even and round. We do not feel like this is the actual amount paid for any damages that he claims are beyond “normal wear and tear”

There are very strict requirements around security deposits. I encourage you to reach out to an attorney. If a security deposit is wrongfully withheld if may subject the landlord to treble damages plus attorney fees and cost. Like I said, it does not hurt to talk to an attorney.

It could be an issue if the buyer knew about the damage, knew it would not be repaired prior to closing, and failed to disclose it.
You will most likely need an attorney to determine if this qualifies as a breach of contract.

If you have stayed on the property as a guest, it is considered a license. A license can be revoked meaning that you can be evicted. Due to the duration of time, you may even be a tenant. But a tenant without a written lease that is provided with a notice to quit may also be evicted. I would... View More

In short, it would be difficult to force the sale since you do not have an ownership interest.
Could there be other legal remedies? Potentially. You should call an attorney to check.

It depends. You need to talk to an attorney. If you are on a month-to-month lease, they may be able to terminate without cause on a 30-day notice. IE, they may not need a reason. Regardless, they need to follow both the lease and forcible detainer statute.
Regardless, more information... View More
