lease language that prevents residents from attempting repairs
Hi,
I am finalizing a new lease and I want to add language that lets tenants know that they are not to attempt any repairs to appliances or other parts of the property where injury may occur to them or property may be damaged. I'm not sure how to distinguish simple repairs (i.e. reattaching a loose cabinet handle or changing a bulb) from ones that are off limits, in a way that is clear and concise. Can someone share your lease language? I am working from a lease I got from RentPrep that otherwise has everything I need, with a few addenda needed. I can put this repair portion in an addendum or in the lease. Not sure which would be best, so advice welcome.
