Whenever a building reaches that point where taxes, mortage rates and other fixed expenses eat up all the rent collected from tenants who have a decreasing ability to pay it, the property is unsal-vageable. That’s why the Uniform Residential Landlord and Tenant Act is aimed at keeping decent housing clean and safe. Our legislature, by placing duties to care for the property on both the landlord and tenant (see KRS 383.595 and KRS 383.-605, respectively), has attempted to keep the property on the market, provide a' fair return for the landlord, and provide the tenant with a habitable place to live.
