What is a rent or landlord dispute?

Rent and landlord disputes cover a wide range of conflicts between tenants and landlords — from security deposit deductions and habitability issues to illegal rent increases and wrongful evictions. US tenants have strong legal protections under both federal and state law.

Common landlord-tenant disputes

Security deposit disputes

improper deductions or failure to return deposit

Habitability issues

mold, pests, broken heating, plumbing failures

Illegal eviction

eviction without proper notice or court order

Rent increases

increases that violate rent control laws or lease terms

Privacy violations

landlord entering without proper notice

Lease violations

landlord failing to honor lease terms

Your tenant rights

The federal Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination in housing. Most states require landlords to maintain habitable conditions, provide proper notice before entry (usually 24–48 hours), and return security deposits within 14–30 days with an itemized statement of deductions.
