When rental conditions become unlivable, tenants may be entitled to Rent Abatement—a legal remedy that reduces or suspends rent payments until issues are resolved. Common situations include lack of heat, persistent leaks, pest infestations, or other violations of habitability standards. Rent abatement ensures landlords are held accountable for maintaining safe and livable housing while giving tenants financial relief during challenging times. Understanding how rent abatement works empowers tenants to protect their rights and seek fair treatment. With proper legal guidance, this remedy can restore balance in landlord-tenant relationships and promote safer living conditions.
