Recent Q&As in Wisconsin (Landlord Tenant)

Landlord took full security deposit for rent that was stolen from their dropbox [WI] | Aug 12, 2026 | Sourced from Reddit
Location: Racine, Wisconsin I lived in an apartment complex in Racine, Wisconsin and moved out at the end of July 2026. The landlord just sent the security deposit accounting and took my entire security deposit (a bit under $1,000), claiming it was for unpaid rent from June 2025. They’re only returning the pet deposit. Here’s what actually happened with that June rent: • June 1, 2025 I bought MoneyGram money orders for the full rent amount and put them in the landlord’s designated rent drop box. • The drop box was later broken into / compromised and multiple payments (including mine) were stolen. A police report was filed with video of the theft. • Management didn’t tell us the money was missing until the 6th of the month. By the time we (and they) contacted MoneyGram, the money orders had already been cashed by someone else. • Their own resident handbook specifically says rent can be paid by delivering it to that drop box. We didn’t have an online payment option. • The same property manager later signed a Wisconsin Rent Certificate that lists that month’s rent as paid. I already sent a formal written demand disputing the deduction and pointing out the drop box policy + the Rent Certificate they signed. I’m also filing a complaint with the Wisconsin DATCP.
New Building Owners of Commercial Lease Agreement | Aug 12, 2026 | Sourced from Reddit
I have owned a small retail business in Wisconsin for 14 years. Two years ago I needed to move my business to a new location and signed a 5-year commercial lease agreement with a building owner I had known for 10 years. She was always easy to work with, helpful, and was practical in nature. A few months after I moved in she sold the building. The new owners are a father and son. The son is pleasant to work with, but the father is condescending and "old school." I have requested a few things be repaired, but essentially nothing has been done. The rent and overhead is considerably higher than my previous years of experience. I am at the point I want to either sell my business or close. I specifically signed with the original owner because I had known her. I did not agree to a lease commitment to the new owners. I can sub-lease, but I need to obtain prior written consent and approval of the lessor. Do I have any legal "out" at all because of a change in the ownership of the building that I had no control over? Location: Wisconsin
Can someone using section 8 for apartment A also lease apartment B? | Aug 6, 2026 | Sourced from Reddit
Location: Wisconsin Last year I rented my downstairs unit to a couple. A few months later one of them moved out into a section 8 voucher apartment. It's time to decide on renewing and they are requesting to both be on the lease again. A Google search leans towards a section 8 tenant not being permitted to have a second lease, but the closest thing I could find for a HUD source on the topic was more about occupancy than the lease itself (one said "only residence" another said "primary residence" another just said you have to live there full time) Can someone using a section 8 housing voucher for one apartment be on a second lease elsewhere?
