Landlord has been cutting off plumbing in my building for 5-6 hours a day basically 3-4x a month for the past 5 months for plumbing repairs. Is there a point where this becomes a legitimate contract/city law violation versus something that's just annoying?

Totally when there's immediate needs and they have to do what they have to do, but across five months feels a little excessive.

Big landlord in a regular, not amenity building if that matters.

Reach out to the Boston housing authority (I think that’s the right one?). They have a ton of free advice to give regarding landlord/tenant issues.

My landlord once tried to withhold my security deposit… I was very young and naive, and while in hindsight I can see how obviously illegal their move was, I wasn’t sure at the time. I reached out to them if it was reasonable, they assured me it was not and gave me step by step instructions on how to communicate with my landlord to get all my money back in a timely manner. It worked!

I doubt it would be a habitability issue - if anything I would keep this in my pocket to use during lease renewal negotiations. The landlord has the right to perform maintenance and 5-6 hours during the day is probably reasonable (whereas a 24 hour period would not be).

If you complain to the city, what would you want them to do?

All landlords have to be in compliance with the State Sanitary Code, the minimum standards of fitness for human habitation. There are a long list of requirements but serious violations include no heat or hot water, these have to be repaired within 12 hours. Code violations may be reported to the Board of Health or the Building inspector by a tenant. If they are found landlords may be fined. https://masslandlords.net/recap-of-massachussetts-state-sanitary-code-index/

My agency has started planning Black History Month, and it got me thinking...

Between the white people suddenly realizing systemic racism is real, the death of George Floyd, and the recent insurrection in DC, do we think more brands are going to do or say anything meaningful this year than in year's past?

If you’re hoping to find a housing deal, you’re out of luck in the short term.
Maybe if you can deal with the higher payments for the next 3 years and sell/refinance above today’s prices you’ll be ok, but this isn’t going to be pretty.
