Well, I can tell you that the people living in apartments...if
they were to even ask for this kind of an evaluation..would
never have their lease renewed! I just watched a man that had
tons of mold in his apt. move with his child...the
complex,,,did NOTHING other than recarpet the unit and repaint.
Within 2 weks they had the unit rented again. I feel bad for
the tenants and would love to let them know however...If the
owners found I did this...I would not have a roof over my head.
