Reducing Rent Every Month If No Maintenance Calls

[Emmett O.]

Hi Everyone,

In a lot of the books I am reading, as well as some of the podcasts I have listened to, many landlords have talked about adding a clause to their leases to give anywhere from $25 to $100 a month back to the tenant if they handle maintenance issues themselves. 

Has anyone had success in doing this? Are there any nuances to this approach? What does the legalise look like in your leases?
