Hi,
I have a small apartment that I rent out, the current tenant has complained about the cold, never had this complaint before but when I checked it out it would appear that some work is required, including replacement windows.
I've had a builder look at what needs to be done and he reckons tenant will need to be out of property for 3 days. My question is what do I need to do for tenant? Obviously I cannot charge rent for the days when he is effectively homeless, and I would assume I also need to cover B+B costs. Do I need to compensate tenant in any other way for inconvenience?
I've never had to do maintenance/repair work with a tenant in situ before. Any help much appreciated.
