Your landlord should fix the A/C because the Las Vegas heat in July can be dangerous, but I really doubt she will spend 1 penny on a house she's losing anyway. I don't know any Realtor who would tell you to sell the appliances to compensate you for moving early. If you feel that your landlord breached your lease by making the house uninhabitable and forcing you to move early and you want compensation, then I suggest you contact an Attorney. No matter how you look at it selling property that doesn't belong to you without the owners permission IS STEALING!

Good Luck.

If she did not feel responsible to pay her mortgage what make you think that feels bad or responsible for you being without the AC in this heat? It is a sad reality but do not put yourself at that level to sale her appliances to pay for AC and staying longer, I don't know what kind of realtor will tell you to do that. It is hard situation but if the house is going foreclosed you need to find a solid land lord who is not in trouble and move out of that property. Your land lord is putting your rent in her pocket and not paying her mortgage, selling her appliances is all up to your morals. I agree with you do not live under this heat with no AC, move out.

As long as the owner has title to the property they are responsible. I would call the Dept. of Neighborhood services or the police and find out who to call.

This is their responsibility. They could be in legal trouble if they do not respond immediately.

Hello,

I'm sorry to hear that you are in this position. There is no question that things are tough out there right now. I think you should get an estimate to see what the problem is. It is possible it might be something minor that could be fixed inexpensively. It is is something major you probably can not get enough money even if you sell the appliances. If it comes back as something big and expensive to fix I would move out early. I understand why the property owner does not want to spend more they probably do not have on a house that will be foreclosed upon soon. It is also a necessity in Las Vegas to have a functioning AC unit in the summer months.

Good luck with your current situation.
