Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Idaho
Change in lease
If a lease was signed for a certain $amt. and then the landlord and you agreed on a lessor
amount, and you have a payment detail from them stating the lessor amt they charged you
can they just go back to the original amt. without informing you.
I had a conversation with my landlord and she agreed I would pay a lessor amt. I have
record of this, would't that make the original lease void?

Re: Change in lease
Depends on how long the lease is as to whether any change must be in writing. If the lease is for more than a year then it must be in writing. And any change must be in writing and it must be signed by the party that you want to inforce it angainst, in this case the landlord. Sending you a schedule of the new payments may not be enough.
The original lease would not be void as you say, if there were a proper amendment to the lease then the lease is still in effect but the old language that has been amended would no longer be effective.
