What items in the house are the responsibility of the landlord to fix and what are the responsibility of the renter? Items that come into the courtyard of the landlord belong to the landlord, even if someone is renting the house. This is supported by Rabbi Yossi son of Rabbi Chanina’s view that a courtyard can acquire items even without the knowledge of the owner. Various tannaitic sources are brought to question Rabbi Yossi’s opinion. If one rents for a year and the year becomes a leap year, is the rental of the extra month included in the original price or does the renter need to pay extra? It depends on whther the agreement was for month or for the year. If the agreement mentioned both months and years, there is a debate about what the halacha will be.
