Reason for application: There was a clear leak in the building that the slumlord should be responsible for, but has taken zero responsibility. So I am on the hook for their neglect of their own property. And please note, if the bill is outrageous again, they have NOT come to the property to evaluate for any leaks, which you can clearly hear water dripping when various water access points are used. This situation is likely heading towards legal action.
