Is it stated anywhere in the lease that you can’t take repairs off rent?


It doesnt matter if it is stated in the lease, it's state law that repairs can be deducted from the rent if the landlord fails to address them in a reasonable amount of time or they are an emergency. The lease can not remove any of your rights that are granted to you under state law.

I think he needs to have proof in writing that he made said request, though.
