Scranton
My landlord in Scranton has given me an order to leave for 'renovations'. I've read what I can online, but the rules are confusing and different sources contradict each other. I'm hoping that someone with experience in housing or tenant rights in Pennsylvania could spare 20-30 minutes to explain the process, the deadlines and the documents I should collect. I have my lease, all communications and photos organized. I'm happy to share them privately. I can't pay for a lawyer, so any guidance on free services in Pennsylvania would also be appreciated. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
