Additionally, when a visitor is present on another person’s property, the landlord must maintain the area’s security and guard against accidents. Hence, this calls for the removal of hazardous tree roots, the cleanup of spills, and the blocking of cables and wires where people could trip. It is usually obvious who is in charge of a business or a single residence: the property owner.

It isn’t always the owner of an apartment who is in charge. Consequently, property management companies frequently own immense apartment complexes, and property managers take care of the day-to-day operations while maintenance crews maintain the facilities. On the other hand, individual landlords may hold smaller apartments that either handle maintenance tasks themselves or hire janitors and other staff. Of course, families or individuals also rent each apartment. Therefore, this implies that numerous parties may be to blame for risks. Fortunately, the law offers clear guidelines to determine who is in charge of what maintenance.

Typically, the tenant is responsible for everything inside the apartment unit. At the same time, providing safe settings for all visitors is a responsibility shared by all property owners, whether residential or commercial.
