找专家律师解困 early release of deposit

GOALBOY

小弟最近刚买了全新的房子，由于想尽早帮进新家住就没等CCC下来就unconditional，并且和中介签署了租房条约直至Pocession date那天为止，大门钥匙和车库钥匙也已经给我们了。但是合同签完的两天后，卖主突然提出要我们release deposit 给他，这个不在他umcondotional或者租房合同里，而且作为买家的我觉得风险太大当然不愿意release deposit给他，现在他看我们无意release 就放下狠话如果我们不release就必须六周之后搬出直至settlement date。
本人觉得太不公平，房子unconditional租房合同也签了凭什么他们要拿不让我们入住来要挟我们release deposit。
因为基本家具都已经搬进去了，什么窗帘啊都已经订做安好了，他们突然让我们搬还说要来换锁不让我们住，这个着实让人非常窝火。
请各位大师帮忙出个主意，谢谢。

我都打算退一步了，不等settle等CCC下来就release deposit，但是他们态度还是那么强硬必须现在不然换锁不让住了

假装多好

你的律师怎么说

MD，中介太贱居然今天跟我说他们跟我签的房屋出租合同房主不承认，还叫嚣让我随便告他们，我简直无语他们的行为，作为卖方授权的房屋中介与我签了房屋出租合同，事后因为我不同意release deposit居然说自己签的合同不算数，MD当我小孩子啊，幸好我有合同Copy，不然真被坑了（ Ps：图片最后两个马赛克为中介的Boss）

你的律师怎么说

联系过律师，律师说我们房子已经unconditional了，而且已经和中介签订了租房合约并且钥匙也给过了，咱们就不用怕他们的恐吓，我们按合同住进来都是合法合理的，对方卖家提出的release deposit我方律师也觉得风险太大也完全拒绝。至于卖家不承认她的授权中介和我签署的房屋出租合同那也是他们自己骗自己，毕竟该中介是他们唯一的法定房屋代理，如果出租房屋合同无效，那么我们之间的购房合同也同样无效（但这是不可能的）

你有租约 可以直接进去住 对方不让你住必须要给notice 要是来弄锁可以报警

谢谢你的建议，我也是这样想的

是的 就算是房东 也并没权利在有租约情况下不让住
你可以告诉他 你住在哪里 他不让的话 让他去告你 而不是你告他 当然他多半告不赢 只要租约没太大问题、
重点是谁签字的你屏蔽了 这个比较重要
钥匙你可以拒绝给他
如果有锁匠什么的来弄 你可以直接给锁匠出具tresspass notice
而且只要是租给你了 房东本人甚至都不一定有权利进入你的房子
具体看下面

非常感谢你的建议，我是觉得他们主要还是在吓唬我们，拿不让入住来逼我们release deposit，反正我已经住进来了，也准备周一交一周租金，那我们不管他们承不承认他们签过的租房合同，我们入住已经构成事实了，所以卖家不能随意的赶我们走。


不知道我分析的对不对，希望各位律师给我些权威的解析。

这个其实看的还是租约

关于房东换锁的部分 有以下规定
46Locks
(1)The landlord shall provide and maintain such locks and other similar devices as are necessary to ensure that the premises are reasonably secure.
(2)Neither the landlord nor the tenant shall alter any existing lock or similar device, or add to or remove from the premises any lock or similar device, without the consent of the other given at the time that, or a reasonable time before, the alteration, removal, or addition is carried out.
(3)Failure to comply with subsection (1), and contravention of subsection (2), without reasonable excuse, is each hereby declared to be an unlawful act.
