Hello BP! I heard from someone that as a landlord, I can charge deductible for repairs to my tenant. I know I would have to put this in the lease agreement to begin with. Let's say for an example that I put this in lease: "Tenant is responsible for $250 deductible for any repairs. This excludes heating, AC, dishwasher, and oven stove units that breaks because of normal use, and not because of negligence of tenant. Any repairs that occur due to negligence of tenant, tenant is responsible for those repairs. " Is this legal in California. Thanks for the response.
