I'm dealing with a situation in Oregon and need some guidance.
mold in apartment making family sick. I've been dealing with this for about 8 months now and the situation isn't improving.
I have been in this property for 4 years. My monthly rent is $4,123. I have a written lease.
Has anyone been through something similar? What worked for you?
Here's my take on the legal issues.
The key question is whether the applicable statute of limitations has run. Depending on your jurisdiction, you typically have your state's security deposit statute years for this type of claim.
I'd at least do a free phone consult with someone. Can't hurt.
NAL, but from what I've read, you should file a complaint. Every situation is different so YMMV.
So basically i went through almost the exact same thing.
Most folks screw this up by is having everything documented. I'd recommend keeping a detailed timeline instead no cap.
Been there. Here's what I learned.
The thing that gets people is hiring an attorney to send the initial letter. I'd recommend being patient with the process instead.
This is exactly why I always do a move-in inspection with photos.
