Episode 81: Toxic Mold, What Landlords Need to Know

Listen On:

Yep. That’s right, this is an episode about mold.  It may seem odd but, in several states, some pretty strict rules have passed regarding disclosures, cleanliness, responsibility, and remediation.

In this episode we are discussing all those things as well as what to do when a tenant reports that they have found mold in their unit.

It’s unfortunate that nearly all the research we combed through was written by lawyers with tips for tenants on what to look for and when it would be appropriate to file a claim against their landlord.

Because of that, we wanted to make sure all landlords were informed of the consequences of not taking mold seriously and tips on how to keep yourself out of the hot seat when it comes to mold.
