Getting Your Landlord to Make Repairs
Steps you'll need to take
Sometimes asking nicely doesn’t work. If you’ve given your landlord a reasonable amount of time to make repairs, but they haven’t made them, it may be time to consider taking your next step.
What your next step is depends on what you decided you were going to do if this happened. We reviewed those options earlier in this classroom.
If you decided that you were going to take your landlord to court and ask the judge to order them to make repairs, then go to the next step in this classroom for more information on how to do that.
If you decided you were going to terminate your lease and move out, then skip the next step and go to the one after that for more information.
