Who pays for the repairs of a rental apartment?

When answering the question, the first answer is that the homeowner or landlord must carry out the repairs necessary for the conservation of the home, without any increase in rent.

But, you should know that this rule has an exception, and that is that the deterioration has been caused by the tenant. In that case, it will be the tenant who will have to take financial responsibility for the damages.

Likewise, all the repairs that have to do with the wear and tear caused by the daily use of the house, will also have to be assumed by the tenant.

It is important that the tenant communicate his intentions about the repairs as soon as possible.

Finally, if it is the case that the repairs are urgent to avoid imminent damage, there will be the right to immediately demand the landlord to pay you the amount that the repairs have cost.
