The maoist uprising against the landlords was the most complete land reform in history.

      Not sure but guessing like an advanced payment against your next month’s rent, if you’ve got a bit of a windfall? Or if you’re in arrears and have to make up a permitted shortfall from a previous month. I have always sublet so not sure.

        Or if your lease has about fifty thousand infractions that could cause you to pay a fine, and, for some reason, zero infractions that could cause your landlord to pay a fine. (Also it’s e-signature only, and cannot be amended by the tenant. is-this a contract?)

        My last place tried to fine everyone in the complex if there was any trash next to the Dumpster.

      It is still an account. If you get a windfall of money for some reason and you want to pay for an extra month ahead of time, you can do that. I have this option on my mortgage and phone bill as well.
