RENT SMART WEBINAR IN ENGLISH
Mold & Your Tenant Rights
Mold is a serious problem in the Pacific Northwest. It poses serious health risks to people who live in rentals with mold – and many tenants don’t know their rights or understand Washington state’s Residential Landlord-Tenant Act (RLTA) laws on dealing with mold. Join Solid Ground tenant counselors to learn:
- How to recognize when a house has a mold problem.
- What the RLTA states about mold and tenants’ rights.
- Landlords’ responsibilities to solve mold and repair problems.
- What you should do as a tenant.
- What you can do if your landlord doesn’t fix the problem.
