For property maintenance, some landlords opt to go with service providers on an annual basis. Landlords do this simply because they don't have time or resource to do it. But is it really worth it? Imagine paying a whole year of service then finding out there were no issues. Should you have chosen to get a specialized service on an hourly rate? Let's find out the answer.
When we talk about “landlords maintenance responsibilities Dubai”, what pops up on your mind? As per law, landlords are responsible for all property maintenance needed unless otherwise agreed. Sound like music to the ears for tenants, right? Well, it's not really the case. Most lease agreements here put major maintenance as landlord's responsibilities. While on the hand, tenants will take care of minor maintenance. However, Landlords maintenance responsibilities are sometimes being abused to a certain extent. For example, a tenant will complain about a broken water heater. The landlord would think that it should be replaced from his own pocket. But after investigating the issue, it turned out that function keys were damaged. And that is because the tenant kept on adjusting the water temperature. The tenant, though, will insist it's not his fault and landlord must replace it. That's why it's important to categorize what is a major and a minor maintenance. To make it simple, a landlord's maintenance checklist must be devised.
Most tenancy contracts here in Dubai specify what the landlord's maintenance responsibilities are. Some major maintenance accountabilities include:
On the other hand, some minor maintenance concerns that tenants should handle include:
It's vital to know what the maintenance responsibilities of both parties are. And it should be stated on contracts to avoid any confusion on both sides.
