should we get rent reduction for broken pool

By Savannah

We moved into a condo that is  mananged by a managment company. we were just informed that pool will be closed for the rest of the year. can we ask for a rent reduction. one of the reasons we took this place was the pool. we were never informed of the pool being closed. This was decided by the HOA

You may be tempted to withhold your rent as a way of pressuring the landlord into either making the pool available or reducing the rent. Not all state laws allow rent withholding. Even if your state’s does, you can’t use it for this problem. Since rent withholding is only available to tenants whose rentals are made uninhabitable as a result of the landlord’s inattention to repairs and maintenance. But don’t despair. There is a way that you can assert your right to pay less rent. Just talk to the management nicely because it may change the decision.
