What am I obligated to pay if there is an accidental fire at my rental house & landlord is cancelling lease?

lease house

My family lived in a rental house. There was a fire in the kitchen which totally destroyed it (the kitchen). The house is not liveable and we did not have renters insurance. We found temporary shelter, but the landlord is cancelling our lease, keeping our deposit and the payment for May’s rent, which I had already sent him. He says he is keeping the payment to help him pay his insurance deductible, or we’d have the pay out the lease for the rest of the term. Is that right or legal even. Need help quick!

I have $100,000 to invest in a small rental property, perhaps a Condominium. I was wondering where in the United States I can invest this money in a rental property so as to maximize my return in terms of monthly income. My friend told me that in Las Vegas I could probably invest in two condos and receive $800 a month in rent from each of them, earning me $1600 a month. Any idas here?

What are my options when I was lured into signing a lease when we were suppose to be renting to own?

lease property

One year ago this month we were lured into signing a lease on a property that was suppose to rent to own. I was told that we had to be in a lease a year before transfering it over to rent to own I was also told that the $6500 we have paid in rent would be counted torward the rent to own. However none of this has happened and I recently found out that the person that rented it to me is a real estate broker and he does not even own the house. What are my options Please Help! The only reason we signed the lease is because we were lied into it. I have documentation proving this.
