In examining the scope of a landlord's obligations in the context of personal injury claims arising from allegedly unsafe housing conditions, we have noted that "the Housing Regulations impose only a duty of reasonable care upon owners of rental property." See Scoggins v. Jude, 419 A.2d 999, 1005 (D.C.1980). Similarly we have noted that "[a] landlord's duty of reasonable care does not require him to foresee all possible dangers." Noble v. Worthy, 378 A.2d 674, 677 (D.C.1977).
