Does a Rental property have to have a heater?
I just looked at a leasing property that does not have a heater!! Apparenty by law the Landlord does not have to provide a heater. Is this right?

I wouldn’t reckon so. The operative word here is, “Caveat Emptor,” or “Let the Buyer Beware.
Excellent luck.
I do not know why you would even consider that place. Of course there must be a heating system in that and all homes. My advise is walk away from the place just say ta ta! there are other places I am sure.
Renting out other peoples unlawful garage conversions are a terrible thought even though they are low-cost.
I don’t know why people need to try to coerce such equipment.
The landlord shows you a property and he tells you the rent. You look at the property and if it is suitable and the rent acceptable then you rent it. If not then you have the right not to rent it.
Regardless of the law, isn’t that simple and honest enough?
In Maine you need a heater, in the Florida Keys, you don’t.
Where is it.
Yes. I lived in heaps of places without any heaters. Go buy one for like $10. No come forth.
Where is the property? If the temperatures can go below freezing, they probably must have heat. So Hawaii and the Florida Keys can probably get away with no heat.
As far as paying for the heat, it varies from disorder to disorder, even city to city. Some places the landlord must provide heat. Others, there needs to be a heater, but the tenant pays all utilities including fuel (oil, gas, electric) for the heat.
There are no such requirements.
In this case, if it is in the colder climates, you may possibly always use electric heaters you bought from wal-mart.
As long as you are attentive there is no heating system, prior to you signing the lease. It is legal.
It would depend on the city or town’s building & housing codes.
In my city a working heating system is required by law.
