It likely depends upon the extent of the habitability violations. Dripping faucet? Crack in outer window pane? No, your on a lease. Holes in the floor, walls, and ceilings? You probably could get out of the lease. Either way, your main remedy is to force the landlord to repair and comply.

Example: father purchased the property for $50,000 in the 80s. His orignial "tax basis" is $50,000. So that if he sells it for $50,001 he has a gain of $1. Now its 2021 and It is now worth $200,000. The built in gain is $150,000.

If he holds onto the property, either as a... View More

Unfortunately, you have no leverage, because there is not any money in escrow. You should probably speak to a lawyer and move forward with eviction or whatever that lawyer suggests.

Sure - anything (more or less) that you and the tenants can agree to is likely to work - bribery has long proven an effective way to accomplish some goals.
