Is it true that a landlord by law is supposed to pay @ least 1 utility bill @ his rental house?
Answers:
Housing laws vary from state to state and county to county. Check with the local housing authority.
each state
Not in any of the 3 states I've rented in. Could be a state law for other states. Sounds silly to me.
1. No, I am not aware of any such law.
2. If a law like that did exist, it would probably be a city or town law, and not apply to every rental in every country.
no
Ditto...Different laws for all states..
NO
No there is no law, federal, state, or local, stating a landlord must pay anything. They don't even have to fix a hole in the wall. The only thing they have to pay for/fix is anyhting that has to do with the safety or useability of the house (gas and electric lines, heaters, water, etc.).
No. A lease is a contract and a contract is an agreement between two parties. If you are offered a lease in which the landlord agrees to pay utilities or to not pay utilities, you are free to accept it or reject it as you wish.
