Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California

terms of lease

do terms of lease jump from property to property? or is it by personal basis?

example: at a previous apt i bounced ONE rental check, i quickly resolved the situation.

i moved to another apt under the same property managers ... they are saying i must pay with money order or one year.

i have signed a new lease and nowhere in that lease did i sign anything about paying with money order for one year on a new apartment. i clearly see that it's a new rule for my new apartment IF i bounce a check for new apt. NOT old apt.

get it? it's hard to explain ....

thanks!

Re: terms of lease

Typically a lease is a seperate contract, so you should read your new lease over to see what the terms of payment are.

Re: terms of lease

As Mr. Chau has explained, read the lease carefully.

There is a strong probability that buried in the small print is the money order rule.

In a way you are lucky as many apartment managers would not rent to you again.
