In regards to paragraph 2.2

The first paragraph below explains that some items are the owner’s responsibility to repair or replace if they fail. As a resident, you are accepting these items as they are and cannot expect a replacement/upgrade. For example, if the refrigerator does not have an icemaker you cannot request a new refrigerator with an ice maker. Another example: Light fixtures are dated but working, you cannot expect new light fixtures
