How Can I Protect My Idaho Renter's Rights?
- Notify the Landlord. If the landlord has violated your renter's rights, you must notify them and give them a chance to correct the issue. In some cases, the landlord doesn't know your rights are being infringed upon. This means giving the landlord a chance to make necessary repairs, eliminate pest infestations, or turn your utilities back on in the event of an illegal lockout. Your landlord will have three days to resolve the incident after receiving your notification.
If the landlord does not respond to a verbal request, send them a written demand that you can use if you need to go to court. Your demand letter should include:
- Your name and address of the rental unit
- The repair or issue you want to address
- Your demand for the landlord to address the issue as required by Idaho law and the deadline (3 days) when it must be completed
- Inform the landlord that you will seek legal remedy if your demands are not met
- Sign and date the letter
Ensure your landlord gets the letter by hand delivery or a trackable mailing option. Your demand letter will be crucial to winning a lawsuit against your landlord. DoNotPay can draft a professional letter on your behalf and help you build a case to sue the landlord if necessary.
- Seek Legal Remedy. If your landlord does not remedy the situation in a reasonable time, you will need to go to court to get justice. It can be expensive and stressful to sue a landlord, but it may be the only way to get the compensation you deserve. DoNotPay can help you sue your landlord in small claims court. We prepare your case to ensure the judgment is in your favor and make the process as painless as possible.
