$6 Rent Cut for Windows with No Screens

LVT Number: 8548

Rent-controlled tenant complained of reduced services. Tenant claimed landlord had installed replacement windows without screens. The DRA ruled for tenant and reduced his monthly rent by $6. Landlord appealed, and the DHCR ruled against landlord. Landlord was required to provide screens. An inspection showed that the new windows didn't have any screens. The rent cut was proper.
