Tenant damaging property
Hi
I have a unit, wherein tenant's mishandling of the dishwasher has caused the dishwasher to go bad. The warranty company has said that it was mishandled. Tenant had never notified me there was an issue when they moved (10 day notice). Now they are taking money out of rent to fix it .
Doesn't the law require them to give me a 10 day notice and receipt before they can deduct any rent?
They claim previous tenants who they know says that it was broken before they moved in. Does that prevail instead of 10 day notice which you are required to give?
Thanks
Anl
