如何处理不安全的住房和租赁维修
如果您的公寓或出租建筑物存在严重或危险的缺陷,则租户享有某些权利,因为房东根据法律承担某些义务。
您也许能够:
- 如果地方法院设立了托管账户,则使用托管账户。
- 获得禁令。
托管账户
如果地方法院设立了托管账户,您可以存入租金,而不必每月向房东支付租金。但是,使用托管账户需要满足特定条件和通知要求。
虽然法院将决定是否需要设立托管账户,但托管账户通常用于严重且危险的缺陷。这可能包括但不限于:
- 两个或两个以上单位发生鼠患
- 含铅油漆危害
- 缺乏足够的污水处理
- 缺少暖气、灯光、电力或水(如果房东负责维持这些情况)。
它不包括缺少空调、正常磨损或其他非危险住房法规违规行为。

禁令
禁令可能是另一种选择。这是一份请愿书,要求法院命令房东修理或修复相关条件。
