There is not much to argue about
Landlords and tenants don't really have much to dispute. Not getting the toilet fixed for 6 weeks is not a dispute. You are just a bad landlord. Taking a tenant to the tribunal because they have punched holes in all your walls is not a dispute. They have broken the terms of the lease an... | __label__pos | 0.894587 |
