    If you have explained these problems to your land lord and have given him sufficient amount of time to resolve these issues then you have a right to leave because it voids your rights as a renter.

    I would send your land lord a certified letter giving him 30 days noticed of your intent to move based on these problems

    If you do not receive your deposit back, request that your land lord provides you with a written reason as to why you are not given it back. Request copies of any receipts if you land lord claims they had to pay to clean or to fix the place after you left.

    If you do not receive your security deposit back and there was no reason for your land lord to keep your money you can take him to small claims court.

    Your land lord has a right to keep your security deposit if you damaged your apartment and he needs to use the money to fix it so take the time to really clean and repair anything before you move.

    Nope your on the hook, unless she agrees and you give her notice. Why would you sign the lease? if you knew it had these problems, and why wouldnt you inspect first especially if you have a child. And yea the answer before mine is true only if you didnt know about these problems.

    Ok, lets see:

    There was a smell in the carpet – the landlord cleaned it
    It gets hot – you have central air
    The sink is clogged – landlord fixed it

    There’s only 1 door, which in an attic is not a surprise and you knew about this upon moving in. It doesn’t sound like you have a case at all. No matter how many times you ask this question, the majority of people are going to side with the landlord, not you.
