We signed a lease for a second floor of a duplex and went and saw it while the prior tenants were still living there i.e. there was still furniture and stuff on the floors. After signing a lease and moving in this week we noticed that the floors are severely slanted in certain areas of the house (a 3in+ drop over 6 ft) I almost immediately started feeling dizzy and nauseated. Having been there for four days I could not take it anymore and contacted our leasing agent. I said I could not physically live there anymore and that I would like to break our lease. Our landlord agreed however she is unwilling to refund our deposit. I first feel somewhat ill done by them not being as up front about the severity of the slant but also would like to think I have some legal recourse due to inhabitable conditions possibly.
Any thoughts on this would be much appreciated and would save some or all of 1500 bucks. Thanks.
