Wexler v Playle (VO): CA 1960

The statutory hypothesis was that the reasonable landlord, when contracting with the tenant for the let of a dwelling house, undertook to put the property in repair and would do so by removing ‘readily remediable defects’ or ‘reparable and temporary defects’. Thus the existence of such defects in the property did not affect its value for rating purposes.
