Do you need a property management company to look after your rental property? If yes, you should read carefully what’s in the contract before signing it to ensure that you won’t get the short end of the stick. 

If you’re a renter, chances are you’ve been in a situation where you’ve had maintenance issues that you’ve reported but still haven’t been fixed after weeks of increasingly hostile emails and phone conversations.

It seems like your landlord is content to collect rent and ignore you. While it might seem like you should withhold rent, you could still face eviction. It’s important keep paying rent as usual but understand that you do have several options available to you.
