The rental market in Córdoba Capital changed significantly after the elimination of the previous law that regulated prices and contracts. This led to a significant increase in rental values and greater availability of properties. In this context, disputes between landlords and tenants over contractual conditions and improvements are not uncommon. Some relationships end amicably, others result in conflicts, and some require judicial intervention. There are cases that generate intense tensions due to particular decisions made by each party. This type of situation reflects the complexity of relationships in the city amid legislative and economic changes. The case that drew attention took place in a modern duplex in the northwest of the provincial capital. The property was newly built and had pending details at the time the tenants moved in. The yard was bare land, without vegetation, and had drainage problems that caused rainwater to accumulate.
