Pool Closure Compensation Options
Summary
If a pool is included in the lease, landlords must inform tenants about closures and provide a construction timeline. They should consider offering rent reductions or alternative amenities. Even without a specific clause, tenants can negotiate for compensation.Full Conversation
YES THAT THE POOL IS INCLUDED
If the pool is explicitly included in your lease, the landlord has certain obligations. Here are some general points:
- The landlord must notify tenants about the pool closure and provide a timeline for construction.
- Consider offering rent reduction or alternative amenities during the construction period.
Do you have any clauses in your lease about compensation or reduced rent due to amenity unavailability?
NO SUCH CLAUSE IN OUR LEASE
Since your lease doesn't have a clause about compensation for amenity unavailability, you might still have some options:
- Implied Terms: Even if not explicitly stated, certain amenities might be considered an essential part of the rental agreement.
- Negotiation: You can negotiate with your landlord for a rent reduction or alternative amenities during the pool construction period.
