Thanks I hope I do win too , a trainer got a big money from me to train me , and he is juat being a excuse not to pay me , last time he said take me to the court. After a year being passionate about his unprofessional and unacceptable behavior! It’s really sad how some people are sick ! 😔 I never want to do this to anybody but he left me no choices 💔

This is good advice. I'm an expert at tenant related small claims cases with 26 years of experience. This young man is spot on. Judges love irrefutable evidence, especially when it flows together to create a imaginable situation.
Well this makes me feel reassured, it's great to get a cosign from an expert such as yourself. I'm not above learning and finding out how our "system" works. I appreciate u chiming in...
@@warrentoles3127 dependent on the circumstance, is the video run by a government agency witch is funded by tax payers making it public properly? In this case it would fall under the Public records act. Public video recordings, Gov't section 6252(e)-, are presumed to be open to the Public and must be disclosed unless a specific provision of the Act or other law exempts them from disclosure. In short, would have to be requested from the Governing body in writing. In the case this is private surveillance it would be considered private property. In a small claims case the owner of said property can be subpoenaed as a witness though ultimately the decision to share the video would fall on the witness. Hope this was helpful. God Bless.
Needed this, thank you!!! My landlord had me do minor work like paint, change locks, clean windows while i was still a tenant. I sent him a invoice and then he report me to the department of labor lisencing andbm consumer affairs saying i was a a contractor on the house and they charged me 500$ because they said i acted as a contractor and needed a permit and license todo thay kind of work, sayin the invoce i sent him was considered a contract. He then now is suing me in small claims court. Glad we at this point because now i can really prove my case infront of a real judge
Kris, your advice of telling a story to the judge & using documents as milestones of the dialog makes a lot of sense to me. I hope my dispute can be settled without going to court. Still, you've inspired me to spend my day off on Friday at Small Claims Court to watch the process in action. If we go, I'll be as ready as I can possibly be. Thanks very much!

Bro the story you just said with the car and it needing more work is on point that's why I'm watching this! Guy quoted me about 5k for paint and minor body work all to end up with a 10.7k bill lol nope sorry pal. And didn't know the price would double until he took of all the paint and the car was disassembled..had him quote it 2 times too!
I just lost small claims, it’s about a vehicle that I bought that completely broke down after two weeks. The car dealer try to fix it twice under a warranty that I thought I had. The judge said he only rules because I don’t have a warranty, but isn’t it still since it was not sold as is “do you think I should be able to get my money back for the vehicle?

Feeling confident with the information you provide! But at the same time, confused and uncertain (long story). I am looking forward to going to small claims court for being scammed almost $1,500 to a fraud. I dont have his name because the police wont give me that information and the leasing office wont give me that information as well even though they are well aware of the tenant who scammed me into subleasing his property. I feel hopeless!
Do you have any tips for tenants suing landlords in court I had a very filthy apartment manager and complex as a whole they never fixed anything, left the previous tenants belongings in my unit , and my last straw was the sight of mold and roaches coming from the vent that attached from my neighbors apartment to mine. Then I was ready to go the lease was up in about a month I stuck it out and made sure it was clean when I left except for 3 minor stains which fall in normal wear and tear but they decided they where not giving me any of my security deposit and were not going to provide me any receipts or evidence as of why they would be keeping it so now I’m suing. Sorry this is so long, thank you for help. It’s greatly appreciated.
I would like to ask you a question ….. I applied for an apt …. And now they’re saying they lost my application , along with all my documents , $130 cash payment …. Can I sue them ???
U know, we put a ton of time into providing value because we want u to be better after hanging out w us👉Make sure you join our email list so you don't miss any exclusive trainings, events or Questions of the DAY: aw8d9fb.aweb.page/p/6cca7548-b8c4-4a7e-a6b6-9cdc9b706c48
Thanks , Sad thatI have 2 sue my friend ..Never do business with friends with out contract or documentation .....now it's ruin our friendship & I have to take him to small claims
OK, I hear you. It honestly sounds like they may NOT need to be a friend any more. If a person will let a few dollars change the way they treat me, it's time to move on. I don't know why so many of my peeps mess up small money. I mean, go out there and mess up some millions, not a few thousand.... If you gotta lose a friend, make it over real money...
I’m not in small claims court YET but I have a feeling I have to get judgement and go this route with the person I’m dealing with.. We have a stipulation at the moment so I’m awaiting to see if he messes this up if he does I want to sue for more
I’m having a situation just like that where I took my car to get detailed and the guy ended up damaging my paint in addition to not doing half the job. He has been ducking me for about 2 months at this point
Nasty, the prob w this is you don’t know whether the guy has anything u can even attach a judgement to, remember-the only thing, the maximum and best outcome is simply a judgement from the judge. After that it’s up to u to collect on that judgement. Most of the time the answer is, well…. I believe they had a movie that sums it up pretty well…. NOPE
yes, always good having pics of the case info, the judge loves those. You have to think, MOST people come in there ill prepared, and waste the judge's time. YOU will come in there like perry mason and make them happy they came to work that day..
@krishaskins please help. For proof with using photos or videos do I need to provide permission to show the pictures or videos or can I just present them during my turn on the stand!?!?! Plz I have a court case soon.
@krishaskins Hi Kris, I don't know if I can sue in my situation, and I would surely appreciate your opinion. My friend offered to keep my stuff in her garage until I could get my own apartment. When I did, I sent her a 'thank you' card to give her the good news. She wrote me back saying that my stuff was gone, that she had sold some things, gave some things away, and threw away the rest. She said that she thought that I would be disappointed. She said that she had tried to contact me. I had had the same phone number and Email address for over a decade, and I was devastated, not disappointed. What do you think?
Have to sue vrbo , they told me to self lodge after a host canceled on me and they would refund me, when it was time to refund they switched up on me and didn’t want to pay
I am in a situation where someone slowly borrowed money from me over a long period of time to where now the total is huge. So exact dates are impossible for me to remember but the documents like text and Email will definitely be helpful... I don't know if I have enough evidence to prove he took my money though since it was all mainly cash.
It's my honor to serve... 👉Make sure you join our email list so you don't miss any exclusive trainings, events or Questions of the DAY: aw8d9fb.aweb.page/p/6cca7548-b8c4-4a7e-a6b6-9cdc9b706c48
Why is it so hard to find a tenant attorney who can give you consult on how to get a $5k back from your landlord. We asked to extend our lease but shortly told LL we can’t afford higher rent so we will let old lease expire in 45 days. After we moved out he said he’s keeping our $5k deposit.
Your points mostly are that the more context you can provide to your testimony, the more believable it is. Having contemporaneous notes of conversations, meetings, and other events can be powerful in court. But the most important thing to do to win in court is to get your agreement in writing from the get-go. It doesn't have to be a big deal formally drawn and witnessed document, so long as it has the essentials of the agreement -- what each party is supposed to do, when, how, where -- and both parties sign and date it, it will be pretty much all you need. "I am paying you $500 today and I'll pay another $1,000 when you finish painting my house next week. This is our agreement." If both parties sign and date it, the court is going to take it as the law for the dispute between you. If there's a breach, document the events as best you can at the time they occur. I judge this sort of thing often, and nearly all of them would be so much easier if only there was a signed agreement. You don't get a signed agreement because you think you will need it to sue successfully --- if you think you may have to sue, don't get into the agreement at all. The agreement means no one has to rely on memory of what was promised. That's useful, even when there's no court action. Necessarily, when parties come into court and they argue about what they agreed to, I have to start from the position that they must not have thought it very important if they didn't commit it to writing.
Yes, I know, I actually forgot to mention have an agreement in writing. I guess I thought that was understood. We never do anything w out an agreement so I’m hoping my viewers won’t either. Great points here. If ur a judge, it would be nice to get an interview krisbuyshouses@gmail.com
Thank you for the advice, I’m going to file a small claim today against this woman who disputed a credit card transaction made towards me as a payment in my business.
you know, unfortunately peeps file these cc companies are in biz to protect the buyer, I have peep all the time buy stuff and then demand a refund. It's just the price of business. Tell me, can you simply give them the money back and move on? Or do you need this to keep the biz going???? Sometimes it's best to leave those types of peeps alone, it's not worth it, sometimes.
@@krishaskins well I’m going to have to do something about it because if no one does who will. People like her need to be put in jail for committing fraud
What do you do if you won and they appeal ? We called and they told us to write a letter but gave no information or templates for what we need to put in it.
Always ask to have Amy amount owed to be place in escrow. The court will decide if it can be done. That way u get the money either way. Go hire an attorney if they appeal.
My former landlord tried to fleece me for repair expenses after move-out. I asked for dates, pictures, videos, reports to support the necessity for all the repairs she was claiming had to be done, and receipts from supply stores showing the materials bought. We went back and forth for a month via emails, and she tried to threaten me with court. I told her yes let’s go to court so I can plead this case to a judge. She switched up after I called her bluff and backed off, but I really wish we could’ve gone to court - I was ready!
Can this help with a discrimination at the work place n unpaid wages as well refusal to communicate like I was assualted by an exemployer n petty actions afterward like I now refuse construction work based on prior experience with worthless companies and bad coworkers
Well, it all depends on what u can prove my friend. U know this European style justice is based on whether there’s enough “preponderance of the evidence” so collect all u can
Great video, I'm currently putting my case together about an illegal tow. They damaged my car and there's not tow signs posted at entrance. I feel like I have a great case. They recently offered to fix my bumper? Is them accepting fault? I'm going to take it all the way.
Well, u can pay to garnish their check if they have a job, and the ultimate beast move is a bank levy. Now, that's going to cost u, but other than that you'll have to try to find out where they get their money from or wait. Judgements don't mean much
Is there such a thing as too much info ? A full break down of the time like including times For an example the time you texted them and the time they texted you per message

Hello, I have an ex that told me I could move in with her and not worry about any finances yet and focus on going back to school full time. She gave me 3 months. Also GAVE me money multiple times even after I said I don’t like this and don’t want to feel like a mooch. It was t an issue until she kicked me out in one days notice. I had also been driving a car she was giving me and had me put my breathalyzer in it. Then she took that while so was sleeping. After multiple promises she would not kick me out or take the car back. She ended doing everything she said she wouldn’t. I ended up almost homeless and failed my semester in college costing me my scholarship.
I have too much psychological damage and financial damage from the California Franchise Tax Board when I take them to court am I allowed to have a legal standing I'm afraid I'd end up having a nervous breakdown or my for my illness to be exacerbated in court is there some way I can have a legal standing can somebody please help me
- Dates - on 27 July, you tube banned monetization on my channel. - Location - not applicable - Story - I run a youtube channel and try to educate people and talk about social issues - Documents - Screenshot of the ban, email communication with youtube, I did everything I could to resolve the issue - Timeline - Waited for 3 months but my channel ban was not lifted (Sorry but these are notes in my own case).
@@krishaskins Well TH-cam banned monetization on my channel because of single warning and kept me fooled/misguided me that it is just a warning and no action was taken. I waited for 3 long months and after perpetual attempts to resolve, only find out that the ban is for life which I think is uncalled for. Seems like I have no option but to defend myself in the court.
I've gotten over 40 calls from a company I keep telling to add me to the do not call list. I sent them a demand letter but it was return to sender even though the address matches the website. Per FCC I am eligible for $500+ per call, but how do I continue. Is this even still small claims since the total of all of them is over the cap or is it 500 per call its own case each
Awesome video my case is that i tried to apply for an apartment in October. I went in and talked to a women in the office and she said they had a unit available so i decided to fill out the application at home with 2 other people. I paid for the application fees as well as the holding fee which ended costing avout 328.00. Moreover a week goes by and the landlord calls me that the particular unit is not available and that i would be refunded my holding deposit as well as the application fees becuase the unit was never even available. Its been 3 months and i still have not received my refund. Should i take this to small claims court? Should i get an attorney? Thanks.
well, I think I'd try to get a manager above the person in charge first, since it's a small amount, you'll be paying fees to file the case, so you'll have to get that back too, But the more I think, it may be a principle on this, they're trying to play you.
You know, I struggled to make this video as I dont want people to use or for destructive purposes, but now that I see the high cpm and many peeps it helped, I'm thankful I did. It seems like the more we share, the more peeps we help, please use this stuff for constructive purposes
I was robbed !! My mother hired a guy to block up my foundation to my mobile home and we bought the supplies and he built the foundation. Well after the job was done I crawled up under my trailer and found that the bricks were cut in half and the cut side was under the trailer. And he took the extra bricks when he left.. there wouldn’t have been any extra bricks if he hadn’t cut the ones he placed. He charged me 3800 dollars for the job. I have pictures of the half bricks with cut side under the trailer. I called a construction company and got an estimate to fix what he did and it is twice the amount of the original job!
Talking to landlords In Massachusetts. You can have all the documents, dates, bank statements, emails proving your dead beat tenant has been screwing you for months/years. The judge will give the dead beat tenant another 6 months rent free until the next court date. And then another 6 months rent free after that court date. Followed by another extension. Never become a landlord in Massachusetts.

I dont have his name because the police wont give me that information and the leasing office wont give me that information as well even though they are well aware of the tenant who scammed me into subleasing his property. I feel hopeless!
Good stuff, thank you Kris!
What if your evidence electronic-based like a video recording? Bring a USB drive or laptop?
Do you have any tips for tenants suing landlords in court I had a very filthy apartment manager and complex as a whole they never fixed anything, left the previous tenants belongings in my unit , and my last straw was the sight of mold and roaches coming from the vent that attached from my neighbors apartment to mine. Then I was ready to go the lease was up in about a month I stuck it out and made sure it was clean when I left except for 3 minor stains which fall in normal wear and tear but they decided they where not giving me any of my security deposit and were not going to provide me any receipts or evidence as of why they would be keeping it so now I’m suing. Sorry this is so long, thank you for help. It’s greatly appreciated.
After you win can you send it to collections when they refuse to pay, in Ontario winning in court don't mean you get paid.
it's the same here too, you don't know if a judgement will lead to you getting your money..
I would like to ask you a question ….. I applied for an apt …. And now they’re saying they lost my application , along with all my documents , $130 cash payment …. Can I sue them ???
Yes
What if you have witnesses and audio recordings? How do you present audio evidence in court?
Rich your videos are second to none:)

Thanks , Sad thatI have 2 sue my friend ..Never do business with friends with out contract or documentation .....now it's ruin our friendship & I have to take him to small claims
OK, I hear you. It honestly sounds like they may NOT need to be a friend any more. If a person will let a few dollars change the way they treat me, it's time to move on. I don't know why so many of my peeps mess up small money. I mean, go out there and mess up some millions, not a few thousand.... If you gotta lose a friend, make it over real money...
I’m not in small claims court YET but I have a feeling I have to get judgement and go this route with the person I’m dealing with..
We have a stipulation at the moment so I’m awaiting to see if he messes this up if he does I want to sue for more
I’m having a situation just like that where I took my car to get detailed and the guy ended up damaging my paint in addition to not doing half the job. He has been ducking me for about 2 months at this point
Nasty, the prob w this is you don’t know whether the guy has anything u can even attach a judgement to, remember-the only thing, the maximum and best outcome is simply a judgement from the judge. After that it’s up to u to collect on that judgement. Most of the time the answer is, well…. I believe they had a movie that sums it up pretty well…. NOPE
Hi Kris, Thank you for doing this. It's great! What do you think about providing the Judge with photos?
yes, always good having pics of the case info, the judge loves those. You have to think, MOST people come in there ill prepared, and waste the judge's time. YOU will come in there like perry mason and make them happy they came to work that day..
@krishaskins please help. For proof with using photos or videos do I need to provide permission to show the pictures or videos or can I just present them during my turn on the stand!?!?! Plz I have a court case soon.
@krishaskins Hi Kris, I don't know if I can sue in my situation, and I would surely appreciate your opinion. My friend offered to keep my stuff in her garage until I could get my own apartment. When I did, I sent her a 'thank you' card to give her the good news. She wrote me back saying that my stuff was gone, that she had sold some things, gave some things away, and threw away the rest. She said that she thought that I would be disappointed. She said that she had tried to contact me. I had had the same phone number and Email address for over a decade, and I was devastated, not disappointed. What do you think?
Have to sue vrbo , they told me to self lodge after a host canceled on me and they would refund me, when it was time to refund they switched up on me and didn’t want to pay
All facts! I had to go to small claims (twice! Against sellers then title company) to get my earnest deposit back and I had to do exactly this and won
Nice, plain spoken advice
I am in a situation where someone slowly borrowed money from me over a long period of time to where now the total is huge. So exact dates are impossible for me to remember but the documents like text and Email will definitely be helpful... I don't know if I have enough evidence to prove he took my money though since it was all mainly cash.
What happens if the defendant says they don’t have any money?
well, then you can get a judgement and go after their bank accounts, but then that costs money too
Thanks for you advice!
thank you for the lesson
It's my honor to serve... 👉Make sure you join our email list so you don't miss any exclusive trainings, events or Questions of the DAY: aw8d9fb.aweb.page/p/6cca7548-b8c4-4a7e-a6b6-9cdc9b706c48
Hey! Can you help me I just got a judgement how do i collect on this now he owes me back rent. 😡
If you're in Texas this may help: guides.sll.texas.gov/small-claims/collecting-a-judgment
Why is it so hard to find a tenant attorney who can give you consult on how to get a $5k back from your landlord. We asked to extend our lease but shortly told LL we can’t afford higher rent so we will let old lease expire in 45 days. After we moved out he said he’s keeping our $5k deposit.
Your points mostly are that the more context you can provide to your testimony, the more believable it is. Having contemporaneous notes of conversations, meetings, and other events can be powerful in court.
But the most important thing to do to win in court is to get your agreement in writing from the get-go. It doesn't have to be a big deal formally drawn and witnessed document, so long as it has the essentials of the agreement -- what each party is supposed to do, when, how, where -- and both parties sign and date it, it will be pretty much all you need.
"I am paying you $500 today and I'll pay another $1,000 when you finish painting my house next week. This is our agreement." If both parties sign and date it, the court is going to take it as the law for the dispute between you. If there's a breach, document the events as best you can at the time they occur.
I judge this sort of thing often, and nearly all of them would be so much easier if only there was a signed agreement. You don't get a signed agreement because you think you will need it to sue successfully --- if you think you may have to sue, don't get into the agreement at all. The agreement means no one has to rely on memory of what was promised. That's useful, even when there's no court action. Necessarily, when parties come into court and they argue about what they agreed to, I have to start from the position that they must not have thought it very important if they didn't commit it to writing.
Yes, I know, I actually forgot to mention have an agreement in writing. I guess I thought that was understood. We never do anything w out an agreement so I’m hoping my viewers won’t either. Great points here. If ur a judge, it would be nice to get an interview krisbuyshouses@gmail.com
Thank you for the advice, I’m going to file a small claim today against this woman who disputed a credit card transaction made towards me as a payment in my business.
you know, unfortunately peeps file these cc companies are in biz to protect the buyer, I have peep all the time buy stuff and then demand a refund. It's just the price of business. Tell me, can you simply give them the money back and move on? Or do you need this to keep the biz going???? Sometimes it's best to leave those types of peeps alone, it's not worth it, sometimes.
@@krishaskins well I’m going to have to do something about it because if no one does who will. People like her need to be put in jail for committing fraud
@@Sk8terChickxxhow did it go ?
“I can’t even count how many times”😭 Good video Kris!
Well, I try to forget about it but it haunts me till this day, the stress is going to court, it's a part of doing business.
What do you do if you won and they appeal ? We called and they told us to write a letter but gave no information or templates for what we need to put in it.
Always ask to have Amy amount owed to be place in escrow. The court will decide if it can be done. That way u get the money either way. Go hire an attorney if they appeal.
Love the sound effects!
Very helpful. thank you.
Glad it was helpful! It’s my duty to be a servant to my peeps to get this word out
So one doesn't need to have an attorney to represent him/her in small claims court, the case can be handled without an attorney?.
yes, it's what SCC is all about. Get out there and make it happen...
@@krishaskins Thanks.
I'm a little nervous bc I'm not prepared, court date is next week and I would like to reschedule, what should I do?.
My former landlord tried to fleece me for repair expenses after move-out. I asked for dates, pictures, videos, reports to support the necessity for all the repairs she was claiming had to be done, and receipts from supply stores showing the materials bought. We went back and forth for a month via emails, and she tried to threaten me with court. I told her yes let’s go to court so I can plead this case to a judge. She switched up after I called her bluff and backed off, but I really wish we could’ve gone to court - I was ready!
Mission and ministry!!!
Yessssss!!
Can this help with a discrimination at the work place n unpaid wages as well refusal to communicate like I was assualted by an exemployer n petty actions afterward like I now refuse construction work based on prior experience with worthless companies and bad coworkers
Well, it all depends on what u can prove my friend. U know this European style justice is based on whether there’s enough “preponderance of the evidence” so collect all u can
Do I have a winning case in small claims court california
Customer refused to pay me for services provided.
If they don’t pay, depending on what u can prove, u may want to collect ur data to see if u can show the case. Then proceed
@@krishaskins yes im getting my evidence ready for court.
Great information thank you
Kris, would you take personal injury from defective product to small claims court or high court?
Great video, I'm currently putting my case together about an illegal tow. They damaged my car and there's not tow signs posted at entrance. I feel like I have a great case. They recently offered to fix my bumper? Is them accepting fault? I'm going to take it all the way.
Great advice, thank you, but what do you after you win if the person still refuses to pay?
Well, u can pay to garnish their check if they have a job, and the ultimate beast move is a bank levy. Now, that's going to cost u, but other than that you'll have to try to find out where they get their money from or wait. Judgements don't mean much
Thank you Kris
I am trying to sue my neighbor for being noisy always and harrasment and moving cause of him, any advice? Thanks!
Thank you for sharing this..I lear something
you're the man!
What about getting the money if you win? It is complicated ?
Is there such a thing as too much info ? A full break down of the time like including times
For an example the time you texted them and the time they texted you per message
Can you still sue if after a while you said “just keep the money”…. Even though I still want my money I just felt like he wouldn’t give it to me
remember, you can't change a written agreement w/ a verbal. Did you say it in writing??
The person is in Miami Florida but I live in Oklahoma so I can’t go to the court! how can we do that?
If you have to leave you're state to take the person to court, are you able to tack on your travel expenses? I'm asking because I live in New York and the person li es in Texas and they are requesting I show up in person.
That's a good question. Let me see about that one
I'm filing against KFC in Ohio; not sure if it's against the corporation or the local franchise where they took my money after claiming they could fill my order, then manager stated they couldn't fill the order and I had to wait 15 minutes. I said no thanks and asked for refund because my dogs were in my car and we're under heat advisory. They refused to refund. 23 bucks they stole
Hello Kris. Do you send evidence prior to your court date ?
What if you paid cash to someone you know for 11th ads. But you have text messages?
Hello, I have an ex that told me I could move in with her and not worry about any finances yet and focus on going back to school full time.
She gave me 3 months. Also GAVE me money multiple times even after I said I don’t like this and don’t want to feel like a mooch.
It was t an issue until she kicked me out in one days notice.
I had also been driving a car she was giving me and had me put my breathalyzer in it.
Then she took that while so was sleeping.
After multiple promises she would not kick me out or take the car back.
She ended doing everything she said she wouldn’t.
I ended up almost homeless and failed my semester in college costing me my scholarship.
Can you also do one on criminal courts
hey, I wish I could, I'm not an attorney and would not know how to start on that my friend, sorry.
I have too much psychological damage and financial damage from the California Franchise Tax Board when I take them to court am I allowed to have a legal standing I'm afraid I'd end up having a nervous breakdown or my for my illness to be exacerbated in court is there some way I can have a legal standing can somebody please help me
Wow, that's real. These things can be highly emotional, I'd strongly suggest getting council on this one. But what happened w the franchise board?
- Dates - on 27 July, you tube banned monetization on my channel.
- Location - not applicable
- Story - I run a youtube channel and try to educate people and talk about social issues
- Documents - Screenshot of the ban, email communication with youtube, I did everything I could to resolve the issue
- Timeline - Waited for 3 months but my channel ban was not lifted
(Sorry but these are notes in my own case).
Ok, that's a tough one there. Tell me more about what happened?
@@krishaskins Well TH-cam banned monetization on my channel because of single warning and kept me fooled/misguided me that it is just a warning and no action was taken. I waited for 3 long months and after perpetual attempts to resolve, only find out that the ban is for life which I think is uncalled for. Seems like I have no option but to defend myself in the court.
Hi 👋 do you do consultations?
hey there, it's a pleasure to help, here's the link to sign up: www.therealestateroundup.com/one-time-consultation/
I've gotten over 40 calls from a company I keep telling to add me to the do not call list. I sent them a demand letter but it was return to sender even though the address matches the website. Per FCC I am eligible for $500+ per call, but how do I continue. Is this even still small claims since the total of all of them is over the cap or is it 500 per call its own case each
Thank you so much
Awesome video my case is that i tried to apply for an apartment in October. I went in and talked to a women in the office and she said they had a unit available so i decided to fill out the application at home with 2 other people. I paid for the application fees as well as the holding fee which ended costing avout 328.00. Moreover a week goes by and the landlord calls me that the particular unit is not available and that i would be refunded my holding deposit as well as the application fees becuase the unit was never even available. Its been 3 months and i still have not received my refund. Should i take this to small claims court? Should i get an attorney? Thanks.
well, I think I'd try to get a manager above the person in charge first, since it's a small amount, you'll be paying fees to file the case, so you'll have to get that back too, But the more I think, it may be a principle on this, they're trying to play you.
Thankz bro helped alot
You know, I struggled to make this video as I dont want people to use or for destructive purposes, but now that I see the high cpm and many peeps it helped, I'm thankful I did. It seems like the more we share, the more peeps we help, please use this stuff for constructive purposes
You can't count how many times!?
Well, after u go to court so much, u kinda forget the cases. It's almost like they bleed into one long case
I was robbed !! My mother hired a guy to block up my foundation to my mobile home and we bought the supplies and he built the foundation. Well after the job was done I crawled up under my trailer and found that the bricks were cut in half and the cut side was under the trailer. And he took the extra bricks when he left.. there wouldn’t have been any extra bricks if he hadn’t cut the ones he placed. He charged me 3800 dollars for the job. I have pictures of the half bricks with cut side under the trailer. I called a construction company and got an estimate to fix what he did and it is twice the amount of the original job!
Can you do one for emotional distress compensation???
Unfortunately, I'm not qualified to teach that. sorry.
Talking to landlords In Massachusetts. You can have all the documents, dates, bank statements, emails proving your dead beat tenant has been screwing you for months/years. The judge will give the dead beat tenant another 6 months rent free until the next court date. And then another 6 months rent free after that court date. Followed by another extension. Never become a landlord in Massachusetts.
you actually could be right, some judges, and municipalities, are NOT Landlord friendly. You must know where to buy and hold to be successful...
