• If there is a sewer back up or clog due to items dropped or used in the toilet or drains, the cost of the plumber to snake the line will be the Tenant’s responsibility (minimum $150.00).  Unless the contractor states it is an “function of the house” that caused the problem, the will be fully responsible.  See Minor Repair addendum.  All repairs have to be completed by a licensed and insured contractor.  Tenants are not to fix broken or damaged items themselves.

• We are not responsible for the loss of personal items due to maintenance issues; you should have renter’s insurance to cover these particular cases.
• Each maintenance issue depends on the severity when it comes to maintenance time. More urgent repairs will be taken care of first and less urgent repairs second. We will always do our best to get all repairs done in a timely fashion!
• However, any maintenance issues that were caused by something on your behalf, you will be responsible for payment on such issues. For example, if the toilet clogs due to you flushing something down it, you are responsible for the repair costs not the landlord.
