Thanks for the message---it's nice to know I'm not the only one going through this stuff! I just have a second right now, but PM me or I'll PM you as soon as I have a chance!!

Kind of funny---I've done so much research over the past several months. I know more about mold than I would have ever imagined (or wanted to know :).

I forgot to address this piece of it---yes, the professor outlined in detail the types of mold and their believed affects on human health. He said that they are all bad for someone, especially a child, who has allergies and asthma. Also, one of them is an important medical pathogen---dangerous...

I just got off the phone with her. We are going to talk next Friday. I'm sending the landlord the letter from the professor, in the meantime. Giving him one more shot, I guess, to take some kind of action. Thanks for the advice! Teresa

I don't want to take him to court. I just want out of my lease. I want to make sure I have enough documentation that he will not make that difficult, nor try to take me to court. Do I have to give 30 days notice? I can't find anywhere that says how much notice a tenant must give if s/he...

I moved into this rental house in July with my young daughter. Noticed a musty smell (the landlord had said was just because it was closed up). It never went away, no matter how much I cleaned, kept windows open, etc. and it worsened whenever the A/C was turned on. I kept exploring what it...
