Tenant moved out early but paid in full...
Unique situation. Tenant had lease through August 31st. Moved out early but paid through the end of their lease. They left the property something late July or early August (they didn't tell us what day they were leaving) they turned off all utilities and lef the keys with an associate. We found a new tenant who signed a lease for Sept. 1st. Because the place was vacant and abandoned, they asked if it would be okay to move some things in over the weekend as the 1st fell on a Wednesday this month. Now old tenant heard from a neighbor that people moved in and want to be compensated or the couple of days that the new people are living there. We DID NOT collect any additional rent from the new tenant. Only did them a courtesy by helping them to move some things over the weekend. Does old tenant have a case?
State of California if it matters...
