Slum landlord advice needed.

cbear :
I would def email one of the local TV stations, too. Bill Spencer does "Spencer Solves It" on CH 2, KPRC. He really gets results! Each tv station has a consumer reporter, so check on their FB pages or station websites. Send the pics and history of Trying to get it resolved.

cbear :
What apartments are these...name ?

cbear I didn't realize Wayne Dolcefino was still around. Our kids were born in the hospital on the same day. 13 boys and 1 girl (was his) were born which was a very busy day for them. They did a segment on ABC. Good luck with the aparment and getting it resolved!
Make sure your son documents all his request and responses. Also do they sell do it at home mold test? Might have him do one.

Has he been to a doc to make sure his lungs are ok?

cbear : They do sell DYI mold kits. I would look into it. Amazon sells them.

cbear : he needs to send these pics to his landlord certified letterand give him 30 days to fix it and tell him if not, he will be moving out. He does need to call someone from the channel news and let them come and look at this. This fails then tell him to take his landlord to civil court. It cost about $100 but you would be surprised at how the judges there in humble are so fair .

cbear : It sounds like he may have standing to pursue termination of contract (lease agreement), based on what you've described. A lawyer can advise him best, but this page from the Texas law library has tons of info in accessible language, including templates for letters, etc. to help him advocate for himself.

Does the property accept Section 8 applicants ? The COH and HUD may be able to get things going if it is Sec 8 Property Maintenance rules.

cbear :
That is unbelievably bad. For health reasons, you son should move out. What was the condition of the apartment when he initially moved in?
