    My landlord has not given me keys to my apartment yet,
    What can I do If I have been living and paying for my apartment for almost a week now and my landlord still has not giving me a key to be able to lock my doors? I am sick of having to worry about someone coming into my apartment when Im not home.

    If your landlord has not provided you with keys I would suggest that you have the locks changed and send the bill to the landlord. You should not be forced to leave your apartment unlocked while you are away.
