Ac Repair Delay Solutions

Summary

In Florida, landlords are required to maintain rental properties in a habitable condition, which includes making necessary repairs like AC issues. If the AC is essential for habitability and the landlord delays repairs, they may be breaching the lease. Tenants can send a formal notice to the landlord, contact tenant rights organizations for guidance, consider withholding rent or repair and deduct (after consulting a local attorney), or file a complaint with local housing authorities.
