Moved into a new house in Boone County Indiana and are currently experiencing electrical problems. 3 rooms and one living room wall are on the same breaker which always gets tripped. Half the outlets in the house are faulty and only get 36 volts. I'm guessing there is a short somewhere which could possibly start a fire.
I've tried getting a hold of the landlord and he always seems to be aggravated that we are even trying to get a hold of him. He has kept blowing us off and we would like to do something about it. In Indiana, can the landlord kick you out for no reason at all? We are doing nothing illegal and have paid our rent on time. I would like to believe that since we do have a signed lease, that he cannot kick us out because we are abiding the lease.
EDIT: We do wish to stay where we are currently at. For renting, I dont think I will find anything much better. Both the wife and I work here in Lebanon so she has a 6 minute drive to work and mine takes 8. We have a 3bdrm, 2 bath, large 2 car garage, nearly 2200 sq ft and over an acre back yard, all for $750/month. I would like to have the issue fixed but not risk getting kicked out. I am looking up tennant rights but it seems that if the landlord wakes up one day and wants you out, he has the right to do so. Please tell me I'm wrong. Seems that I'm in a lose-lose situation.
