To whom this may concern,
I live in San Diego California, and I currently rent a 3 bedroom condo and I am about 3 months away from a year in a 1.5 year lease. When I moved into the condo, included in the lease was a washer and dryer. Our neighbor living on top of us has been the only one to complain about it. He used to be on the home owners association board but for some reason he is no longer a board member. In a meeting with the home owners association, I presented them with papers from my doctor showing that I have skin conditions that can be avoided when I use my own washer and dryer; along with a copy of our lease showing that the washer and dryer are included. The home owners association has sent us a letter stating that we have to remove it within 2 weeks and then schedule an appointment with them for inspection so we do not receive a 100 dollar fine.
my questions here are as follows
1. can a home owners association remove things included in a lease?
2. this neighbor above us is the only one complaining, we only used it during daylight hours. This guy is just an angry person who lost his job and is lashing out at everyone
3. If we have to loose this washer and dryer, is there a recommended amount I should request as a discount from my rent due to the fact that the washer and dryer were included in the lease?
thank you for your help in advance.
