Moderators Kassandra RPM Alaska Posted November 23, 2019 Moderators Share Posted November 23, 2019 Well. Doing a property visit I got to see this! For a fun chat...what rules would this break in your lease? How would you handle this? What form would you post? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBH Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 My lease says shower/bathtub is only to be used for showering and bathing. Tenant shall not use the shower/bathtub for but not limited to cleaning of animals, equipment, food ect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Kassandra RPM Alaska Posted November 24, 2019 Author Moderators Share Posted November 24, 2019 I have never thought to make a clause for the shower only. What I did do is make a blanket clause that says all rooms equipment and so on should be used properly as it is intended to. Tenant can ask about proper usage if ever in question. Any damage or costs to the landlord due to improper usage will be back billed to the tenant. This clause has been a HUGE saver in many of the crazy things that happen.

SBH Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 A blanket clause is a great idea. I have some specific ones for the bathroom because my 4plex has flooded twice due to improper usage... so I really highlight that one when we go over the lease. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Water damage sure adds up and eats profits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBFult Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Well, I'd rather them put clothes in the shower rather than water...Avoids leaks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
