Bathroom Ceiling Stain Not De Minimis
LVT Number: #19911
Tenant complained of a reduction of services based on a bathroom ceiling stain. The DRA ruled for tenant and reduced his rent. Landlord appealed, claiming that this was a minor condition that didn't warrant a rent reduction. The DHCR ruled against landlord. The bathroom ceiling stain is a serious condition and should have been corrected immediately. It is not only an eyesore, but it may create a safety hazard.
