Minor code violations/tenant not paying rent
I have a tenant that is angry because terminated his month to month lease. I gave 3 months notice. He has called the code inspectors and suddenly they are finding minor violations.
-1 set of exposed wires in basement
-1 loose ceiling tile
-a fixture on the ceiling that is loose
- a sink In the basement that is too close to the electrical panel
He has not paid rent and I have begun process of eviction. The code inspector stated that I still need to have the violations corrected or he will send me a summons to appear in court.
What am I obligated to correct if this tenant is not paying rent?
Thanks!
