Moving Guide Answers: Renters’ riqhts quiz ■ Continued from Page 6B 1. E. The Landlord/Tenant Act requires that a rental unit must be in good repair. This includes plumbing facilities, hot and cold running water, adequate heat, working elec tric lights, working electrical equipment, clean building and grounds and all other fa cilities properly repaired and working. It cannot have leaks in the roof, walls, windows or doors. 2. E. the rental unit must in clude a working smoke detec tor with working batteries, provided at the beginning of the tenancy and working locks for all dwelling entrance doors. It is the tenant’s respon sibility to test the smoke de tector every six months and to replace batteries as needed. 3. D. The landlord must provide essential services, which include heat, water and electricity. The tenant is usually asked to pay the utili ty bill. However, rental agree ments vary from landlord to landlord. If the landlord is go ing to pay for some of the utili ties, be sure to have it in writ ing. 4. B. The landlord has 30 days after termination of the rental agreement and the de livery of possessions to refund all deposits due. 5. E. A tenant should first write the landlord a letter stat ing the problem he or she has and request repairs within a reasonable time. The tenant may be able to negotiate with the landlord to do the repair and adjust the rental payment. A tenant should be sure to have everything in writing so that the issue of rent does not become a problem later. A tenant may also consider court action through the County Small Claims Court if the landlord refuses to take care of the problems. A tenant should not withhold rent without first talking to an at torney. 6. A. If the landlord needs to keep any of the deposit money to cover damages, breakage, etc., a statement must be for warded to the tenant within 30 days showing the use of that money. Money may not be claimed in this manner by the landlord to cover ordinary wear and tear by the tenant. If the tenant and the landlord disagree on the amount owed, the tenant may contact an at torney or make a claim through Small Claims Court for double the amount of the deposit.
