Incident on Property
I have a rental that has a detached garage. I changed all the locks on the main home which is a duplex and provided keys to my tenants. I failed to change the locks on the garage, and the tenant stored their stuff in the garage(which they have exclusive rights to). I also, did not provide them a key as I had planned to do. So I AM AT FAULT. Subsequently, items were stolen from the garage. I requested them file a police report, and I would look into my options. I did not find anything regarding this in landlord/tenant guide here in Michigan. The report was filed, and received. The perp was eventually arrested.
What would be best practice?
Discount the rent for the value
Reimburse the value in cash
Replace the stolen items
