I have been comming to this site for over 5 years. I appreciate the advice, but I would caution people who reply to please indicate if they are an attorney or just a lay person who thinks they know the law. I l,ike many people have serious legal issues or questions and it is not helpful for people to offer advise and be WRONG. In response to my question a senior member said I could not legally withold rent yet the applicable law CLEARLY states that a meterial breach of ANY codes,housing laws, etc, EXCEPT FOR VERY SPECIFIC SITUATIONS ,WERE GROUNDS TO WITHOLD RENT PROVIDED THAT THE LANDLORD IS GIVEN SEVEN DAYS WRITTEN NOTICE. Please do not offer wrong advice unless you preface it with something to let one know it is your opinion and not necessarily the law
