how legal is a signed contract and can a consumer make a business fulfill the contract even if it was written wrong?

Answered 10 years and 3 months ago by Patrick Johnson (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer
The written contract governs the terms of the contract. However, good luck in trying to enforce it unless you want to take them to court to seek enforcement. If you don't like the terms, then tell them to come take out the direct tv. Another option is to only pay what the contract says when the bills comes but then they will probably turn off your service.... Read Answer

Who is responsible for outside repairs to my condo that is covered in the contract / master deed when I purchased this condo.

Answered 10 years and 4 months ago by Patrick Johnson (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer
If the HOA bylaws provide that the HOA is to pay for the repairs, then the HOA is responsbile for the repairs. However, if there is no money to pay for the repairs, then it can not be compelled to pay for it if there is no money. You need to read the HOA bylaws and see if it says anything about repairs and time.  When you purchased your home and became part of the HOA, you tied yourself to the other homeowners and the payment of their HOA fees to keep up the common areas and repairs. It sounds like your HOA needs to start enforcing the payment of HOA fees.... Read Answer

Is it against the law in Tennessee not to get a rent receipt when you ask your landlord?

Answered 10 years and 5 months ago by Patrick Johnson (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer
There is no law that says your landlord does or does not have to give you a receipt. The better practice is to pay him with a check so that you have proof that you paid the rent. If you have a written lease agreement, then he can not change the rent until after the lease has expired. However, if you are on a verbal lease agreement, then he can change the rent and rent period by giving you a rent period notice of the change.  There is no requirement that the lease has to be in writing but it if is not, then you have less protection....
