An apartment is a self-contained housing unit that occupies only part of a building. Apartments may be owned (by an owner-occupier) or rented (by tenants).Maintenance: Landlords may be required to provide heat, hot water, roofing, security, and sanitation to meet local health codes, and any failure to maintain those services could give the tenant a right to withhold rent. Beyond that, the parties could agree on what minimum maintenance is required (lawn mowing, shovelling snow, carpet cleaning), and what additional upkeep the landlord might desire in exchange for possible rental credit (e.g., outdoor painting, etc).
