Are you looking to get out of your lease? You may want to begin by gathering all your ammunition first because landlords are not likely to just let you out of your lease. I recommend assembling a document trail for any dispute that you have with your landlord about your tenancy. For example, if your landlord has failed to make repairs at your apartment, it sure would be helpful to have a half dozen letters that you wrote to the landlord describing the repairs needed and asking him to make them.

Hi, I have tenants that floded my rental. There was a sewer blockage & the tenants were told to shut off the water. The female residint continued doing laundry & dishes despite water flowing out from under the wall next to the machine. (She did turn off the water at the toilet.) The plumber did come out & clear the line by pushing through what was thought to be TP, But at some point 3 rooms of carpet & lots of walls were wet. $8500 damage not including emergency clean up & sanitization. Licensed clean up & contractos were on the jor restoring immediately. How does this look like constructive eviction? The tenants filed a small claims case within 6 days of the damage while the repairs were being done?
