Second Inspection Required

LVT Number: 11795

Tenant complained of a reduction in building-wide services. The DRA ruled for tenant after an inspection and reduced his rent. Landlord appealed, claiming that he had restored the services before the DRA issued an order. The DHCR ruled for landlord and sent the case back for further processing. Tenant's complaint was filed in July 1994. Landlord answered on January 13, 1995, and claimed that repairs had been made. The DRA's order was issued in February 1995 and was based on an inspection made before landlord's answer was filed.

Since landlord claimed that repairs were done, the DRA should have scheduled a second inspection.
