Legal Question in Real Estate Law in New York
Landlord tenant
I paid Rent and first months sercurity three days ago for this apartment. However after the landlord was finished with cleaning the apartment out, I was still unhappy with it. I have had the apartment for 3 days now and I havent moved in yet. I have notified the landlord that i would be moving out. Am I still entitled to the rent money and the security deposit?

Re: Landlord tenant
Probably not. You had an opportunity to not enter into the lease agreement. Yet, you decided to sign the contract. Therefore, you should be held responsible under the lease.
