Security deposit
I gave my landlord $1350 security deposit and now that I moved out he’s making me wait until he rents the apartment to give some of it back to me, because I moved out before the end of the month. We had no lease. I paid month to month and there was never any other verbal agreements as far as notice for leaving the apartment. What can I do to get my money back in full? He inspected the apartment and I gave him the keys and he said he would mail me a check for only $1015. I feel I should get it all back. He did not do any work on the apartment in the 3 years I lived there. I don’t even have an address for him, only a cell phone number.

Ending a Month to Month Tenancy
I have a tenant who lives in my rental property and has been a tenant of mine for only 9 months. She use to be the old owner and had lived there as the owner for 10+ years. I want to end her month to month tenancy to fix the house up and sell it. I plan on doing some major repairs to the kitchen and bathrooms so while fixing it up it will not be livable. Do I need to give her 30 days or 60 days to move out of the rental?

Black Mail We have been trying to leave a residence for months.

Black Mail
We have been trying to leave a residence for months. Due to family sickness, and other personal problems we have not been able to leave until now. Months ago when our landlord presented us with back water and sewage bills we contacted our attorney who informed us that under our month to month lease we are not responsible for those bills. I never disputed paying rent for the rest of the time here. the landlord came today and we told him we would be out by the end of the week. He is demanding I write him five or six post dated checks to cover the past water and sewage bills or he will have us evicted tomorrow. I know it is against the law to write checks you have no money to cover. Can he Black Mail us like this?
