Landlord Gets Rent Hike for All Tenants Who Had Leaks After Painting

June 30, 2007

LVT Number: #19692

Landlord applied for MCI rent hikes based on painting and waterproofing. The DRA ruled for landlord in part, but denied any rent increase for three tenants. They had claimed that there were leaks and water damage in their apartments. The DRA said landlord could collect rent hikes from these tenants only after making repairs. Landlord appealed and won. Landlord had submitted to the DRA a statement that repairs to these apartments were completed, but the DRA had overlooked landlord's statement.
