When I moved in after a grueling background check last April, my nutcase landlords insisted this house was ‘mine.’ I do all the maintainance: yard, house repair, ceiling fan installation, plumbing…etc etc etc. Now that I want to move out because I’m too tired to keep up with the work on the almost 100 year old house in Florida they are saying I didn’t pay last months but a ‘big security.’ Whatever. I have cancelled checks but what are my legal rights if any with no lease and what are their legal rights if any with no lease? I have taken good care of the property and it is clean and not damaged but they are insisting I need to trim the palms before I move, remove the grass from the cracks of the sidewalk…get the leaky faucet and toilet fixed. I’m ready to fill wall hanging holes and spot paint and clean like a banshee but nothing more. Thoughts please smart folks????????

Trane finally finished installing our new updated oil furnace/AC combo earlier today and to say it sounds like a freight train running through our house would be an understatement. It was installed in our hallway as we don’t have a basement. Our old oil furnace which was in the same spot wasn’t exactly quiet either, but this new unit makes that sound like a ceiling fan.

I asked the tech when he first fired it up if it was supposed to be that loud and he said yes that it’s normal, but the Trane sales rep originally told us after he surveyed our house that we would barely hear it turn on. Am I missing something?
