How to navigate tenants destroying things

[Ryan Brown]

Good morning all,
I’m a landlord in New York City and would like to know how to move forward if tenants are damaging the apartment.

As the landlord, I understand that if the stove stops working I have to get it repaired or changed but what if the damage isn’t natural? For example, a broken fridge door, broken window, holes in walls…Normally I would repair it but what if it’s becoming a constant thing?

Do I have to repair it no matter what? Is there a number of times I repair it and then increase the rent a specific amount to cover the repair bills. Please help because this is becoming unbearable, thanks.
