My lease says "Major maintenance and repair of the leased premises, not due to Lessee's misuse, waste or neglect ... shall be the responsibility of Lessor...". It also says, "washer/dryer left as courtesy to Lessee". I understand this means the lessor does not have to repair/replace the W/D if they break, but does it mean that I am responsible for repairing them if they break?
The washer stopped working two weeks after we moved in. The owner plans to repair it and then sell both the washer and dryer. I have asked her to leave the dryer for the duration of the lease. She is saying if she does that, then we will be responsible for repairing it if it breaks. I don't think that is correct -- advice, please?
Thank you very much!
