Bump for Connecticut Real Estate Meet-up tonight at Crave in Fairfield.

(FYI: The Metro-North from NYC runs right next to the Fairfield line with very ease of access from Stamford, Norwalk, Westport, Milford, and other towns on the  train line.)

Robert, except for this link (http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/connecticut...) I don't see anywhere that it says this needs to be provided to tenants. In that article it quotes § 47a-3e, 47a-6 of the code and neither seem to indicate this is a requirement of the lease. 

One thing to note is you do need to include a sprinkler clause in your lease: https://www.cga.ct.gov/current/pub/chap_830.htm#se...

What a jerk-thing to say! My only other advice is I would speak to an attorney that ONLY (or primarily) focuses on evictions. I use 3 attorneys regularly for my business (and more on certain deals): 1 for evictions, 1 for small purchase agreements, and 1 for larger transactions.
