[quote=Anonymous]Landlord here.  I disagree that the tenant should be compensated.  As a landlord, I bend over backwards for our tenants - they are good tenants and I want them to stay in my home. That doesnt mean that I take in the ass though.

The landlord in this case has clearly shown that he/she is acting in good faith, getting the problem taken care of asap, and not skimpking on the repairs. No one lives in a home that's issue free, and just because you are a tenant does not make you immune to the everyday issues that people who live in homes face (dishwasher not draining, AC borken, roof leaking). You dont have to pay for them but you dont get PAID because those problems exist!

When you sign a lease, nowhere in the lease that you will deliver to them a perfect house void of future defects....that would mean you have a crystal ball. It sucks for the tenant, but the landlord in this case is acting in good faith and paying quite a bit for the repair. Let's not forget that part. it's not like the landlord is getting off scott-free here. [/quote]
