What are tenant remedies for breach of implied warranty of habitability?
After the tenant has notified the landlord of the condition and given landlord a chance to cure, the tenant can 1) terminate the lease, 2) repair the defect and deduct the cost of repair from the rent, 3) sue the landlord for damages, 4) seek a court order requiring the landlord to make repairs or 5) withhold rent and place it in escrow.
