We have a somewhat paranoid tenant who is refusing to disarm the burglar alarm she installed and allow us access to wipe any moisture caused by water blasting[around windows etc]
We had no objections to her installing it but had no idea she would not disarm it to allow entry for maintenance.
She has said she ''never disarms it''.
We have told her we will be as careful as possible but if she wont give access to wipe any water that should happen to come in ,then she will be responsible for any damage caused.[went on to say she can come herself to let us in if she's not comfortable turning off B alarm]
Do we have that right?
Its not a great time for a showdown as we are going overseas in around a month and every other respect she is a good tenant.
I cant help but think that at some point this issue will have to be dealt with.[at some stage we will certainly need repairs done etc]
I'd be very interested to hear others opinion on this somewhat sticky issue. Cheers
