Advocates and tenants will be at the statehouse pushing for more accountability. Mainly because in Indiana landlords have more rights than tenants.
INDIANAPOLIS — Each week, WRTV receives multiple calls, emails and messages from frustrated Indiana renters who are dealing with unhealthy and sometimes dangerous conditions that their landlords or apartment management will not fix.
Mahogany Mann’s story isn't uncommon. She's one of many people WRTV has spoken to over the years dealing with unresolved maintenance issues. After the city and state got involved her apartment complex was recently sold to new management but she's still waiting on repairs. "The state of Indiana take priority in landlords there are not very many tenant rights there are so many steps that we can take as individuals and as tenants, but it only goes so far,” Mann said.
Anti-retaliation laws protect tenants if they report a landlord for improperly maintaining the property they are renting. Indiana currently doesn't have a code dedicated to that protection.
