I moved out waiting for commercial landlord to fix problems?


I work with clients that I sign confidentiality agreements with. In my new office, the people nextdoor claim they can hear every word we say. They also complain constantly if the radio or music is playing. I brought this up to my landlord, that I cannot do business in this office unless they fix it. I gave them 30 days. They did not, g so I moved out, I can't wait forever and I need to make money in my business. I sent a letter informing landlord that I would move out due to the lack of resolution to the problem. Now, they want to hold me responsible for the remainder of the lease. THey are now fixing the problem by adding another layer to the walls. Well, it's too late, I moved out in order to continue with my business. They want to serve a 3 day notice for not paying rent. I know they can sue me for the life of the lease, but I can also sue for loss of money not being able to work in my office. any ideas?

The business is handling of information for paparazzi, celebrities etc.

I checked the building codes and a business must by default be soundproofed to at least 65 decibels. The wall between the 2 suites was recently constructed. Even we cannot hear any sound transfer from neighbours, they can hear us.

Kemperk is not right on this as it is commercial. The suitability and remodeling is the responsibility of the tenant. You have to understand that this is the way it is.

Why does everyone think it is the landlords responsibility to do things that was not in the lease.. I would assume that the lease says rented "AS IS" so you best pay up..

Once you moved out, you gave up all rights to the unit. so the 3 day notice is his way of protecting himself...

i am sure others have heard of your problem but it is rare.

I agree that both you and the landlord
have your rights!

IF the landlord decided to fix the
problem afterwards, that is ON HIM!

YOU are 100% correct about the
30 days "repair or else" notice.

Sorry.

Their 3 day notice is illogical.
YOU can sue but I am not sure
what you can collect; CHECK YOUR INSURANCE POLICY; for
"business interruption" insurance
coverage.

--what type of biz do you have?
