So now 5 months later with at least 2 more to go, you are out 5 months of rent, $7,000 in legal bills (and counting-we are not even at trial at this point) and by the way, if the tenant wins their case, the insurance company probably will not cover the judgement as it is excluded in the policy.Also, if the tenant decides to call code enforcement and they find mold, now you have to remediate professionally (again not covered by insurance) and it will cost you about $15,000 or more because they have to do the whole building to kill all the mold.Oh, and by the way, the tenant called code enforcement and there is no visual mold but all this is going on anyway.So legally, you may not have to but it will cost you a lot of money when you get a tenant who can play the system.Make the attempt to fix it so you can say you did.Tom
