Lead:[edit]
The Landlord-Tenant law is used to balance the duties of Tenant to Landlord, differing from state to state. The article briefly discussed the history of the Landlord-Tenant law, covers Landlord duties and Tenant duties along with Tenant remedies, and jurisdiction based polices within Massachusetts, Texas, and Missouri.

Article body:[edit]
In the state of Virginia, in regards to the condition of a property, the tenant is responsible for changes and improvements on the property. The Landlord of a given property is not responsible for any injuries regarded to incident of condition, the Tenant is responsible. Landlords are responsible for all repairs to ensure the property is habitable. In order for a tenant to file a repair they must be able to pay rent dues and file a written notice along with a wait period.

Massachusetts Tenants are responsible for any damages that occur during their leasing period. In advance, land lords are required to notify their tenants about repairs and any possible inspections. Land lords can enter into a tenant's apartment without their approval only if there is an immediate threat or emergency that could affect the entire apartment complex

 My suggestions and perspective 

The lead section effectively introduces the topic and sets the stage for what follows, offering a concise summary of what readers can expect to learn. I like that you are adding a lead for your article. It makes more sense to me. You demonstrate balanced coverage by presenting the responsibilities of both landlords and tenants, which explains both sides fairly. Also your supporting documents are from reliable sources such as government websites and academic journals.

However, there are a few areas where the article could be improved. The article could benefit from more detailed explanations of certain concepts, particularly regarding landlord and tenant responsibilities in different states. You could also dive into the legal requirements and consequences for landlords who fail to comply with obligations.

Overall, the article provides a solid overview of the Landlord-Tenant law but could be strengthened by providing more detailed explanations and incorporating perspectives from a wider range of sources.
