Slumlord
An informal, negative label for a landlord alleged to neglect housing conditions or responsibilities. It is not a precise legal classification.
- Repairs left undone
- Leaks that keep coming
- Report to local code inspectors
Where it matters
Describe the specific condition, reports, inspection findings, and required remedy rather than relying on a label.
