Compensation for Tenants?

Chris G.
Posted

Power went out in apartment Wednesday night, had electrician go out first thing Thursday and found the main breaker needed to be replaced. Because this needed to have him meet the utility company there to install it was not completed until Friday. Tenants ended up staying at their friends but was their choice to do that. Now wanting compensation for “finding other showers to use, laundry, food, lodging” I feel compensation is not required since we took care of the issue as fast as we could. Also if the tenants had renters insurance that might of helped in this situation which I’ve recommended they have. I just want to know other thoughts on if you’d go about this the same way.
