My new landlord sent me an invoice charging me $80 extra dollars a week, stating that my lease didn't say that I could use the water, gas and electricity meters, and I needed to pay extra rent if I'm going to let utilities companies read the meters.

Someone requested Tzila playing fetch with Landlord in the Midst discord four months ago and I finally finished it :D

Today I heard someone saying some stupid shit and then I learned that they’re a landlord and it made sense.

I was living in the sewers and was forced to pay Pennywise rent as he was eating a corpse.

Hello, bitches! I don't think I saw this in the renter's master post, but how does one go about breaking a lease in the least financially ruinous way possible? My apartment flooded for the 3rd time in 12 months due to an improper drainage system, and I am FED UP. I have family telling me to sue over it, but I'd be content if they let me break the lease without fees or penalties.

If your apartment keeps flooding and your landlord has not fixed the problem... then your LANDLORD HAS ALREADY BROKEN YOUR LEASE.

A lease is a legal contract. Which means the landlord AND tenant both have responsibilities in order to keep the contract valid. There is usually language in there about the landlord keeping the unit in good maintenance. Constant flooding is NOT good maintenance. And if your property has been damaged by the flooding, the landlord could actually owe YOU, either for temporary housing or replacement of property.

So go read your lease, find the clause about maintenance, and take it to your landlord and say "According to this clause right here, you're in violation of our rental agreement. Therefore, I am moving out without penalty. If you'd like to discuss this, I'll have my lawyer get in touch." (Note: not everyone can afford a lawyer, but if you know anyone even tangentially related to a law firm, use the line about the lawyer. My husband's uncle and aunt are lawyers and the one time I used this line to resolve a labor dispute, it scared the bastard so much that they stopped their bullshit and paid me for my work with no further argument.)

Lastly: we are not infallible. Your state government website should have a section on tenant's rights. Look up this information to see if there are any other protections you can take advantage of before going nuclear on your shitty landlord.
