[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds like the landlord had a tenant that was a problem before and called about very minor issues all the time. [/quote] This! We had tenants with baby bowls and silverware in the garbage disposal, overloading circuits (and refusing to reset them themselves), and kitty litter put down toilet. You name it, these low life’s did it and expected immediate repairs. They threatened to reduce rent if garbage disposal wasn’t fixed overnight! (We lived 1000 miles away and I wasn’t paying a huge fee to fix it at night when there were two sinks! I don’t know if it’s fair to charge tenants that fee though but I can see where it comes from. What is more reasonable is to charge the tenant for repairs they caused. Did they not connect the coils to the stovetop correctly when cleaning and cause a $175 call from an electrician like ours did? They should pay for that! Did the 10 year old fridge break? Not the tenants responsibility. [/quote]
