Tenant is demanding 50K in reparations!

[Bradley Miller]

Here's my latest curveball:

Tenant calls me to report a mold problem.  I arrive the day of to investigate.  She found some green growth on the bottom of her nightstand and bedroom dresser. Clearly mold, but this is the sole evidence of mold.  None on ceiling, walls, bathroom, etc. This is a basement apartment, I not only advise to run a dehumidifier but I stress to her the importance of doing so in the summer months, and provide her with a brand new, 400$ dehumidifier when she moved in. (A year and a half ago.)

Ok, how would you like to proceed? Well, I certainly can't live here. (I agree, time for you to find a new place.) 

Well, can you maybe replace my bedroom set for me and help me get into a new apartment? 

Think about what you think is a reasonable number and get back to me.

two days later she says 50K due to all of her furniture now having mold damage. Mold spores travel through the air you know and im scared to bring any of my things to another apartment.  

No I can't do that.

The next day it drops to 25k. 

Still, no.

The next day she feels 10k is reasonable.

I initially was inclined to help her with a new bedroom set, and return of security deposit along with not charging the month of september while she finds a new place.

My responsibility or not, amicably helping a tenant vacate quickly is in everyone's best interest. That said, 10k is still well beyond my responsibility.

What would you do landlords? Thanks for reading
