Last week we learned about problems in a home.

This week we will learn about the people that can help you fix the problems!

But before we start...

Nice work!

Let's get started on today's lesson! ​

If you rent a home, your landlord must fix problems with the building.

​

You are not responsible for fixing problems with the building.

​

You may have to pay for the problem if you caused it.

Please be careful.​
