Seeking Advice on Landlord Concerns in California
My landlord included Wi-Fi in the rental agreement, but the connection has been consistently unreliable. When I raised the issue, she suggested I purchase my own router instead of addressing the Wi-Fi problem directly. After living there for three months, she informed me of her intention to increase my rent without providing any details about the amount. I am aware that other tenants’ rents remained the same. Since rent increases are largely at the discretion of landlords in the South Bay Area, I then decided to move out next month. However, She has now refused to conduct a move-out inspection in my presence, even though she lives with us. She insists that I vacate the property first before conducting the inspection. I would prefer to do the inspection together while I am still there, as this landlady has not been handling matters in a professional manner. I'm wondering if this is standard practice or if there might be a better way to handle these move-out concerns.
