Mold Remediation Cost

What are my rights as a tenant during mold remediation? I’m refusing to live in my apt during deconstruction..

I’m being let out of my lease (no written notice req, cleaning fees waived) and offered a transfer to a vacant apartment. However, I am not able to park at/near proffered apartment so this is very inconvenient. They stated that they would prefer if we moved out so they could fix the mold/water leaks. Over the last 2 years, I notified the maintenance team in writing about leaks from the roof when it rained. Three times they painted the wall to cover the water stain and ignored the roof. Now I have mold growing through the sheetrock and feel forced to leave because we have asthma and/or allergies. They refused (“it’s not our policy”) to place mold monitors in our apt to detect spore growth and air quality during the construction/remediation. Should they pay for us to move, plus the cost of transfering my utilities –all approx $1,200…what are my rights as a tenant?

Thank you for your thoughtful consideration and suggestions.

you can put your money in escrow threw the court system i hope you have renters ins your belongings now have mold spores in them on them ,bed,clothes,etc…they should be held responsible for on going problems caused by their neglect so what I’m saying is get a lawyer…
