The Responsibility to Keep Rentals in Good Condition based on the Warranty of Habitability
All property owners are responsible for keeping their properties in good condition. This is based on the Warranty of Habitability, which is established by California Civil Code 1941.1. For rental properties to remain habitable under the Warranty of Habitability, they must have the following:
- A roof that effectively keeps weather out of the property
- Access to hot water and a functional heater
- Working electrical, such as wiring, equipment, and lighting
- Sturdy walls, floors, stairs, and railings
- Appropriate trash bins
- A locking mailbox (only in apartment units)
- No pests or infestations
- No toxins, like lead, asbestos, or mold
- A generally clean premise
Can I File a Lawsuit if Concord Violated the Warranty of Habitability?
Yes, you could have the right to file a lawsuit. When landlords violate the Warranty of Habitability and tenants are forced to deal with uninhabitable living conditions, tenants could pursue claims. Claims filed for violations of the Warranty of Habitability will be based on breach of contract, as the Warranty of Habitability applies to all rental or lease situations, whether or not there was explicit language about the law on the rental/lease agreement.
What if the uninhabitable condition resulted in harm to tenants? Some uninhabitable conditions may directly lead to harm to tenants. When this occurs, harmed tenants could have the right to file injury claims or wrongful death claims against their landlords/property owners. When tenants have valid injury claims against their landlords, they usually also have grounds to file claims for breach of contract, as mentioned above.
To ensure that you have a thorough understanding of the legal options available to you and your family, do not hesitate to reach out to our firm as soon as possible.
What Compensation Can I Recover?
Depending on the type of claim you are pursuing, you may be entitled to different categories of compensation. For breach of contract cases, claimants could be entitled to receive compensation for temporary relocation costs, moving costs, out-of-pocket repair costs, and reimbursement for property damage. In cases where injury or other harm occurred, claimants could be entitled to receive compensation for medical costs, lost pay, pain and suffering, and more. Of course, claimants could also be eligible to recover compensation for legal expenses.
