Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California
30 days notice - not allowing to stay whole 30 days.
I have given a written notice stating a 30 days notice, but advising I would leave in 15 days.
I decided not to pull the 30 day notice, but to stay the whole 30 days.
The landlord refused and I was responsible for the whole 30 days in rent.
If I could throw in maybe a little venting question.
Do you think $400!!! is considered ''BAD FAITH'' for ''PARTIAL PAINTING'' of a 700sq - 2 Bedroom apartment?
Honestly the above question is basically the product of taking her ''managment'' too far, and I am tired of being pushed around.

Re: 30 days notice - not allowing to stay whole 30 days.
If you gave 30 days notice, you are responsible for paying for the full 30 days, whether you remain for the entire time or not. It sounds like that is what happened.
Your second question is not clear: do you mean that $400 was deducted from a security deposit for painting? Depending upon how long you occupied the premises, and whether the painting was the result of damage you did, the landlord may or may not have the right to deduct painting from the deposit. How much painting costs would relate to the number of square feet painted, so it is impossible to say whether $400 is too much.
