Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California
I am renting a condo in California. There isn't anything in the lease agreement in referring to appliances. The washer started leaking water 3 weeks ago. We have asked the landlord to get it fixed. She keeps saying a handyman will call us and it never happens. What can I do?

This is not quite a legal problem yet, so much as it just a real-world annoyance problem. It seems to me a property owner would be concerned about leaking water! Tell her, "OK, we'll just let it leak!" Meanwhile, get it fixed by a real repairman with a license.
