Getting evicted with small children in the state of Pennsylvania?
My landlord has sent us a 15 day notice of eviction because he came into our house when we were not here and without permission or notice and saw that we had gotten a small dog. The lease does say that pets are not allowed but the guy is a family friend and said he would let it slide with our other two dogs because it is a big house with a huge yard. We do not pay rent, instead we work for him (a lot) in lou of the rent but on the eviction notice he stated that we owe him $4000 in rent! My husband landscapes all of his properties (including a huge apartment building), is the super of his apartment building, fixes his other rentals, and cuts down his trees. He has never paid us for our work it has just always come off of the rent. We have lived here for a year and have never received a rent bill or a late notice. We have three babies and I heard that in the state of PA you can’t evict someone if they have small children, is that true? What are our rights?
