Can I get compensated for my wallpaper after the landlord kicked me out?
In today’s episode, we discuss whether you can get compensated after getting evicted over a disagreement with your landlord .
Hello, I signed a lease for this apartment, I was sold on the potential, let’s face it, house hunting in Nairobi is such a nightmare. I noticed a few things prior to moving in and I raised it with the landlord and they promised to fix it before I moved in. A month later they did the paint job was and cleaning. Among the things that I pointed out is the functioning of the toilet, the toilet doesn’t flush, the shower doesn’t work, so no hot water in June-July weather, the wiring was to be done since one can’t turn on the bulb in some of the common areas. I have been patient and i have been here 6months and still no work has been done. In those six months, I did some home improvements. I fixed the wallpaper and did the floor, just the polishing. Now in the last call I made to her, she told me I was a difficult tenant and gave me until the end of the month to move out. Now will I get compensated for the wallpaper and the flooring that I did.
Is the eviction legal?
