Hi Irma, If you have already told your manager or landlord about your problems in your apartment, and they have not made any move so far, What you can do is make sure you document all the molds that you have seen in the area of your apartment by taking photos and lastly, file a complaint with RPA. $35 is all it would take to help you solve this matter. Since you said you have financial issues and you can’t afford to transfer to a new apartment right away, the $35 fee will not gonna be as bad as paying for an attorney plus the time it can consume you. So file a complaint now and I hope your problems will be resolved in no time.

Thank you for posting a very important topic. Mold problems should be brought into the public eye! Severe health problems can arise from a lack of understanding and lack of proactive moves by citizens. To test my old apartment for any type of mold I used mold test kits.

This way I had proof as to what kind of mold was growing. Take a lot of pics, and get out now!
Thanks again for the post!
