Does she sounds like trouble tenant?
My friend who is first time landloard took over an tenant and got a long email from tenant FWD to me.
Does she sound like a trouble tenant from the email? And any of those thing she describe is need to be fixed? The lease she took over say rent as it is.
I personally would hate if someone email me such a long list of small things .
After, moving in physically we
noticed a few broken issues existing in the apartment and
they are as follows:1)
The kitchen has a cracked threshold in the entrance on two
places and it is moving.2)
Some of the cabinet doors in the kitchen are
broken.3)
The first closet door from the entrance is off its hinges
and has to be closed forcibly. The second closet door does
not close, the door knob is
defective. 4)
The wooden flooring all around the apartment had several
cracks and niches more distinctly at the entrance
area. 5)
The ceiling has a crack running through right across the
fan.6)
The TV Mounting rod from ceiling was turning out to be a
hindrance and a lethal weapon. We banged into it on several
occasions and so requested the Super of the
building to take it down. The super yanked it out of the
ceiling and kept it in his custody.7)
The bathroom "bathtub" is in deplorable
condition with the inner sliding screen door almost off its
hinges and can fall on us while taking a
shower. 8)
The tap is moving around in the sink. 9)
The bathroom doorknob was off its hinges but I got that
fixed... but now the door does not lock.10)The
A/C might have not been installed correctly, cold air seems
to flow through from outside constantly, it may pose to
be a problem in the winters.11)The
window net is torn and patched with a piece of
sticker. However,
we can work around it as it is... and I am not requesting
you to get them fixed. Just letting you know, so that you
are aware of some of the immediate pre-existing damages that
