Noncompliance

  1. Landlord Noncompliance
  2. Tenant Noncompliance

The tenant may be able to withhold rent if the landlord fails to do what the law or rental agreement requires. A tenant must notify the landlord, in writing, by hand delivery or mail of the noncompliance. The written notice shall also indicate the tenant’s intention to withhold rent due to this noncompliance. The tenant may withhold rent if the landlord fails to come into compliance within seven days after delivery of the written notice.
