There seems to be no accountability from the apartment owners and management. As for the person that has the mold problem in their apartment, you can get out of that lease. It is known as a default by the owner. You have the right to live in conditions that are safe and healthy. You have to let them know about the mold ( also take pictures) in writing. They have to take care of it and if they don't you also give them a second letter saying that you are breaking your lease by reason of default and if you have any medical bills that have occured since you moved in that may be related to the mold, you can also sue. I am using a default by owner.So to get out of my lease with no penalty and I got that in writing by management. Sometimes sorry from management isn't enough.
