6 CITY OF WAUSAU PROPERTY MAINTENANCE & TENANT INFORMATION 6 CONSUMER FACTS DON T RENT TROUBLE Advice On Checking Out Apartments (Reprinted From Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection Informational Brochure) Finding a decent place to rent requires thorough inspections of apartments and the strength to keep looking when apartments don t pan out. We recommend you take along a: Flashlight Light Bulb Hair Dryer Pen or Pencil This Checklist These will be your inspection tools. Use the following list to check for problems. Electrical Turn on each switch to see if it works. If there is no bulb in the socket, use yours. Check every outlet by plugging in your hair dryer. Obviously, there are problems if a fuse blows out or the dryer won t go on. If outlets or sockets don t work, there could be dangerous defects in the electrical system that could cause a fire. Plumbing Turn on the sink and bathtub faucets to see if they work or leak. Flush the toilet to see if it operates properly or leaks. Do the drains operate properly? Look up Are ceilings water stained or cracked? Are walls water stained or cracked? These may indicate a leaking roof, defective rain gutters, or defective plumbing upstairs. Water damage could cause the ceiling or walls to collapse. Are there deadbolt locks on the apartment doors and the exterior doors?
7 CITY OF WAUSAU PROPERTY MAINTENANCE & TENANT INFORMATION 7 Safety Are there smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in the building? Are there deadbolt locks on the apartment doors and the exterior doors? Windows Are there storms and screens? Very gentle push on the windows to see if they are secure or loose in the frame. Rodents and roaches Open cabinets and immediately shine in flashlight to detect roaches. Look for roach eggs. Look for rat and mouse holes and droppings in the back of cabinets and closets. Basement Be sure to go into the basement to check on the condition of the furnace. (Make sure there is a furnace.) Look at the water heater to see if it is leaking. If you notice any serious problems, think carefully about the chance you ll be taking with your family s health and safety if you rent the apartment. Ask the landlord to put promised repairs in writing. But ask yourself: If he/she didn t make these repairs for the last tenant, why should I believe he ll/she ll make the repairs for me? If your landlord doesn t make promised repairs, call your local building inspection department to request an inspection.

8 CITY OF WAUSAU PROPERTY MAINTENANCE & TENANT INFORMATION 8 CONSUMER PROTECTION TENANT S RIGHTS & RESPONSIBILITIES (Reprinted From Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection Informational Brochure) As a tenant in Wisconsin, you have rights and responsibilities. To avoid problems, it is important that you know what these rights and responsibilities are: What You Should Know Before You Rent Landlords may not advertise or rent condemned property. Landlords must disclose housing code violations they have been notified of but have not corrected. They must also reveal structural defects, a lack of hot or cold running water, serious plumbing, or electrical problems, and other hazards. Landlords must also disclose: If the heating unit cannot maintain a temperature of at least 67 degrees Fahrenheit. If you are required to pay utilities. How utility charges will be divided if the dwelling is one of several not individually metered. You have the right to inspect the unit before you rent it. We recommend you take along a flashlight, light bulb, hairdryer, pen, and the following checklist: Turn on each light switch to see if it works. Check outlets (use hairdryer) and sockets (use light bulb) defects could cause fires. Turn on sink and bathtub faucets check for leaks, proper drainage and water temperature. Flush toilets check for leaks. Look for smoke detectors. Check ceilings and walls for cracks and water stains. Are there deadbolts on apartment and exterior doors? Push on the windows are they secure? Are latches in good working order? Check for window storms and screens. Check condition of furnace. Even in summer, turn up thermostat to make sure it actually works. Look at water heater to see if it is leaking. Promises of repairs by a landlord should be provided to you in writing, including a completion date, before you agree to rent the property. Rental agreements are not required to be in writing. However, if there is a written rental agreement, the landlord must give you an opportunity to read it before you decide to rent. When renting, you must be furnished with a copy of the agreement. If an earnest money deposit is required with your rental application, the landlord must return the entire deposit by the end of the next business day if your application is rejected. If for some reason you decide not to rent, the landlord may withhold from your deposit actuals costs or damages.
9 CITY OF WAUSAU PROPERTY MAINTENANCE & TENANT INFORMATION 9 If a security deposit is required, you have 7 days from the first rental date to inspect the premises and notify the landlord of any defects so that they will not be unfairly charged to you. You should notify the landlord in writing and keep a copy for your own records. In addition, before accepting your security deposit, the landlord must notify you that you have the right to request a list of damages charged to the previous tenant. The landlord may charge you the actual cost, up to $20, to obtain a credit report from one of the three nationwide credit reporting agencies (not credit information resellers), provided the landlord has notified you in advance of the charge and also gives you a copy of the report. If you have a credit report that is less than 30 days old, you may give this report to the landlord to avoid paying for a new report. What You Should Know While Renting At the start of the tenancy, the landlord must provide you with the name and address of a person who can be readily contacted regarding maintenance problems. The landlord is responsible for making any repairs that are necessary to comply with local housing codes and keep the premises safe. If the landlord refuses to repair major building defects, you may report the defect to your local building or health inspector. The landlord may not retaliate by evicting you. Unless otherwise agreed, tenants are usually responsible for routine minor repairs. You are also required to comply with any maintenance and sanitation requirements imposed on tenants by local housing codes. You are financially responsible for any damages that you or your guests have caused. A landlord has the right to inspect, repair, and show the premises at reasonable times. Except for emergency situations, the landlord may enter only after a 12 hour advance notice unless you allow entry on shorter notice. If you are a tenant renting by the month, the landlord may raise your rent by giving you written notice at least 28 days before the next rent due date. There are no state laws limiting the amount of rent increase. If you have a lease for example, a six month or one year lease the rent may not be increased during that time unless specifically stated in the lease. What You Should Know About Terminating a Tenancy If you are renting by the month, the landlord may terminate the rental agreement by giving you a written termination notice at least 28 days before the next due date. You must use the same procedure in notifying the landlord of your intent to terminate the rental agreement unless you agreed to give a longer notice. Tenants may serve the written notice in person or by certified or registered mail.
10 CITY OF WAUSAU PROPERTY MAINTENANCE & TENANT INFORMATION 10 A six month or one year lease usually terminates automatically at the end of the lease, unless the rental agreement specifies otherwise. If the lease provides that it will be automatically renewed or extended unless you give advance notice of termination, the landlord must remind you of the provision at least days in advance of the notice deadline. Otherwise, the landlord may not attempt to enforce the automatic renewal. If you break a lease by moving out early, you may be obligated to pay for the remainder of the term unless another suitable tenant is found. However, the landlord must make reasonable efforts to find a suitable tenant and minimize any rent losses. Also if you move early, you must notify the landlord in writing of your departure after you have vacated the dwelling unit in order to start the 21 day clock for the return or accounting of your security deposit. When moving out, it is always a good idea to contact your landlord to arrange for a final checkout inspection. If your landlord does not agree, find someone to be a witness to inspect the premises with you. If you paid a security deposit, the landlord must return it to you within 21 days after you move out. The landlord may deduct for unpaid rent or damages for which you are responsible. On the other hand, a routine across the board deduction from the security deposit for cleaning or carpet shampooing, in the absence of abuse, waste, or neglect on your part, is prohibited. Deductions can also be made for your utility bills paid by the landlord. If there are any deductions from the security deposit, the landlord must furnish you with a written statement itemizing the amounts withheld. State law does not require payment of interest on security deposits. Risk of Eviction Tenants who pay partial rent, no rent, or late rent (even one day late) put themselves at risk of eviction, as do tenants who break the rules or terms of the rental agreement or cause damage. Month to month tenants may be given either a written 5 day Quit or Pay Rent Notice or a 14 day written notice to vacate the property 5 day Notice. This written notice from the landlord gives the tenant five days to pay rent or move out within five days. If the tenant pays, the tenancy continues. This notice can also be used for violations of the rental agreement, or material damage to the property. 14 day Notice. This written notice specifies that the tenancy has ended because the tenant failed to pay the rent, broke the agreement, or damaged the property. This notice does not offer the option of paying the rent and staying in the building. If the landlord wants you to leave the property for violations of the rental agreement, a 14 day notice to vacate the property is usually given.
11 CITY OF WAUSAU PROPERTY MAINTENANCE & TENANT INFORMATION 11 Termination notices for tenants on leases When landlords don t receive the rent on time or believe the tenant has broken the rental agreement or caused damage, they may serve a 5 day written notice. If the tenant pays the rent within 5 days, the tenancy continues. If the tenant fails to pay the rent again within the following 12 months, the landlord may then give a 14 day termination notice for failure to pay rent without any other opportunity for the tenant to continue tenancy. If tenants receive a 5 day notice for breaking the agreement, they may remain if they make a correction and comply. If tenants break any rule or cause damage within the following 12 months, the landlord may give a final 14 day termination notice specifying the breach or damage. If you refuse to leave the premises after your tenancy has been terminated, the landlord may start an eviction action against you in Small Claims Court. You will be served a summons. This is your notice to appear in court, it does not mean you are evicted. In court, the judge asks you and the landlord to explain your sides and then will make a decision about your eviction. If you receive a summons for eviction, seek the help of a legal aid service (look up LEGAL AID in the yellow pages of your phone book) or consult with a private attorney (call the State Bar of Wisconsin Lawyer Referral Service (800) or (608) ). Removal from premises The landlord may not confiscate your personal belongings, turn off your utilities, lock you out of your apartment, or use force to remove you. If the small claims court judge rules in the landlord s favor, the judge may issue a court order requiring you to leave the property. If you don t, the county sheriff may remove you and your belongings from the premises. These steps may only be taken after the small claims court hearing and after the judge orders the eviction. If the court determines that you have wrongfully overstayed, the landlord could be awarded twice the amount of rent, prorated on a daily basis, for each day you unlawfully occupy the premises. What you should do if you suspect your rental property is in foreclosure If you suspect that your rental property is in foreclosure or is going into foreclosure, continue to make your rental payments as required by your rental agreement unless you are otherwise directed by the court or by the agent handling the foreclosure. You can determine whether your rental property is in foreclosure by contacting the Clerk of Court for your county or checking the Wisconsin Circuit Court access site at
12 CITY OF WAUSAU PROPERTY MAINTENANCE & TENANT INFORMATION 12 Unhealthy & Unsafe Conditions Sometimes rental units become unhealthy, unsafe, or unlivable due to a landlord s failure to maintain the property. It would be wise to get legal advice to learn if the tenant is able to legally abate (adjust) the rent. A lawyer may indicate how to document the condition, what agencies to contact, and what should be put in writing. If not done legally, rent abatement could result in eviction. If conditions are so bad that tenants feel they can no longer safely live in a rental unit, a lawyer should be contacted before the tenants officially move out to prevent further financial obligation. If a Problem Develops If a problem develops between you and your landlord, information and assistance may be available from various local groups and agencies, including housing code officials, landlord and tenant associations, and Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection. Landlord tenant relations in Wisconsin are regulated by Chapter 704, Wisconsin Statutes, and by Chapter ATCP 134, Wis. Adm. Code. In addition, Chapter ATCP 125, Wis. Adm. Code, further regulates mobile home park operator tenant relations. If a landlord violates Chapter ATCP 134, for example, by refusing to return or account for your security deposit, you may be able to start an action in Small Claims Court. Section (5), Wisconsin Statutes, enables you to recover twice the amount of any actual monetary loss, together with court costs and reasonable attorney fees. Copies of Chapter ATCP 134 may be obtained from the Department s Division of Trade and Consumer Protection.
