Take money off of rent due to clogged drain?

[Justin Seng]

My tenant has been in rental for 2 weeks. She let me know that the washer standpipe was overflowing some when she did wash. I draino’d the drain and ran the washer. Didn’t get any leakage. The next day she let me know it was leaking again. Got a plumber to snake the drain line and clear it out. All good now.  The tenant seems like she’ll be great.  My question is...should I take some money of this months rent due to her not being able to do wash? My gut feeling is yes but I don’t want to set a precedent...

NO WAY! You fixed the problem in an acceptable amount of time. If she was a day late with her rent, but still within the grace period, would she pay you a little extra?
