Hi everybody,

Please let me know what is a reasonable accepted MINOR REPAIR amount that the Lessee should agree when signing the Lease Agreement for a condo in BGC.

Anyone please advise what we should draw attention when signing about the MAJOR REPAIRS and MINOR REPAIRS in the Lease Agreement. What should be included in the Major Repairs, which the Owner is responsible for.

Thank you very much
Regards,

New comer

I would make certain there is a clause stating, "ALL repairs will be the responsibility of the landlord and they will be done promptly."

Of course if you punch a hole in a wall in a fit of rage; it would not be advisable to expect the landlord to cover that.

Gelynch- define promptly?

By "promptly" I would consider the day after notification to be sufficient unless it is a water break in the wall or an electrical failure or hazard & then immediately.

Everything other than a lightbulb should be considered major.

Lynch- the word promptly, need to be propted up a bit. Means something totally different in the RP . I would suggest more exacting language.

I would put an amount on it. Minor repairs not to exceed X amount of Pesos.
