Hi all,
We are living in a flat for 2 months and we took it in a hurry. So, the renovation was not done. Overall the flat is good but needs some fixing from the flat owner like:
1) Washroom door doesnt get closed!!
2) The water taps are not working properly.
3) He has not vacated the keller although it is mentioned in the contract.
We have already reminded him so many times that he needs to get things done and he always promises to do that but still the tasks are not done. My question is what steps can we take now?
a) Can we get 1 and 2 things done by a technician by our self and can we reduce the money from his next rent?
b) Can we also reduce the money for the keller say 50 or 100 Euros per month until he vacates the keller?
We are new here in Germany and we dont want to get into legal issues and we want the tasks done as well.
Any suggestions from experts?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
