My landlord is demanding access to my apartment every week for "inspections." Can they really do that?

If your landlord wants to enter your apartment every single week for “inspections,” your gut reaction is probably right to flare up. In most cases, landlords do have a right to enter a rental unit, but that right is usually limited by state law, lease terms, and the reason for entry. A weekly, open-ended inspection schedule can quickly cross the line from legitimate property management into harassment or a violation of your right to quiet enjoyment.

I inherited $20,000 from my grandma. Then I got notice from a collection agency about a medical debt from 15 years ago. Can they force me to pay?

Medical debts typically expire after a few years, but that doesn't mean collections agencies won't try to track you down.

My utility bill spiked, and no one could explain why—the bill sure didn't. Do I really have to pay if they can't give a reason?

It's always a nasty surprise to see a hefty rate hike on your electric bill, especially if there is no reason given for the increase.

Concerned woman on a cozy couch

The landlord says I’m competing with other applicants and have to pay to hold the unit. How do I avoid getting scammed?

You finally find a place that looks perfect, the landlord responds quickly, but then the pressure starts: “Other applicants are interested. If you want it, you need to pay a deposit to hold the unit.” This is exactly how rental scams work. The good news is you can protect yourself without losing every decent listing, as long as you know what to look for and how to slow the situation down.

Woman worried about renovations

I want to renovate our kitchen before selling to increase the home’s value, but my husband says we won’t recoup the cost. Is he right?

You’re about to sell, and your instinct is clear: update the kitchen, boost the value, sell for more. Your partner, on the other hand, says you’ll spend a fortune and never get it back. So, who’s right?

Woman concerned about pay app

I was tricked into sending money through an app, but my bank won’t dispute the charge because I “authorized” it. Is there any way to get my money back?

You didn’t get hacked. You didn’t have your card stolen. You sent the money yourself, because someone convinced you to. Now the bank says the charge was authorized, so there’s nothing they can do. Unfortunately, this is one of the hardest types of fraud to reverse, but “hard” doesn’t mean “impossible”.

I’m the only woman in an office full of men who constantly make “jokes” about my appearance. I thought we were beyond this in 2025. What should I do?

You walk into work, and before you’ve even logged in, someone comments on your outfit. Another chimes in with a “joke” about your body. Everyone laughs, except you. It’s 2025—shouldn’t we be past this? Spoiler: we’re not.
