[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seems like it would encourage tenants to handle very basic things themselves and cut down on nuisance maintenance calls but still have the onus of major issues and repairs on the landlord. [/quote] Yes. And knowing some tenants (my BIL and MIL were/are landlords), I think this is perfectly reasonable. If you don't want to pay $100 to the landlord, you can fix it yourself, and realize it might actually cost more. It helps the renter stay aware of costs, which makes them not abuse appliances as much. [/quote] Or it incentivizes the renter to ignore minor problems until they grow into major ones, which are more costly for the landlord to fix.[/quote]
