Re: Tenant keeps locking themselves out of apartment by dave (ny) on March 6, 2012 @14:52

                              
just a comment to the colleague who's buying NINE DOLLAR LOCKS.....we have an implied responsibility to furnish REASONABLE SECURITY to our tenants. I, as all of us should, include a clause in my lease about "inspected and accepted for intended ocupancy and use re security". This is a tough world we live in and properties in less than premium areas ,...with less than premium tenants can be targets,....from both sides of the doors. CHEAP LOCKS ARE THAT FOR A REASON. Many cannot be easily rekeyed ( if at all),...and wear out, misalign and jam,....which is LL responsibility. If there's a break-in or fire,....your ''import special'' may turn out to be the worst bargain you ever got !!
