Rental repairs: tenant vs landlord (Spain)
Urban lease basics — not legal advice; confirm with your contract.

Rule of thumb
Small fixes from daily use often fall on the tenant; structure, installations, and habitability on the landlord.
Send dated email or burofax for serious damp, gas, or electrical risks. Keep photos.
