旅行住在Granada时,收到租客的text message,
“ Dear xxxx
I hope you’re well. I’m writing to let you know that I’ve discovered mold growing in my home at 19XX apt , specifically in the bedroom on the wall near the window and in my closet?
The mold appears to be spreading and may be affecting the air quality in the unit. I’m especially concerned because I live here with my children, and mold exposure can cause serious health issues.
Under California law (Civil Code §1941.1 and Health Safety Code §17920.3), landlords must maintain the property in a habitable condition, which includes repairing leaks and addressing visible mold that may affect health and safety.
Please send a qualified professional to inspect and fix the source of the moisture and remove the mold as soon as possible. I would appreciate written confirmation of when this will be done.
Attached the photos and video of the affected areas. Please treat this as an urgent matter for the safety of my family.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.
Sincerely,
Mohamed XXXXX “
然后我回,霉菌影响健康,很重要的问题,你能不能找到房子马上搬走?
人家就跟我急了,说人会住在里面forever,
要我马上派专业人员过去,不然明天就是rent board。
我直接回,If you like please do so.
那人直接打电话过来,blah,blah,blah
说他人nice,别人对他好,他就很nice,
别人对他不好,他就马上能给厉害的意思。
我说我明白了,但不喜欢,有威胁的意思。
你得让我讲开,听着,我们平等,有问题解决。
我现在在西班牙旅行,等我回家后,我来看看霉菌的情况,
他那边说,老房子,他在这一带住了很多年,霉菌是常见的事,
我问你有其它地方住吗?他说有表兄弟在附近。
接着说在自己处理,我说不好,你知道怎么做吗?
他说要知道我在旅行就不会告诉我,跟我sorry,打扰我了。
我继续说你记得戴N95啊,他就挂了电话。
我挺满意的,回头看RM,因为开着speaker的电话,
刚想得意一番,人家皱着大眉,仿佛天大的麻烦事呢,
我就扫兴地闭嘴了
回来后,第二天就要去看,他说问题解决了,可我说服他要让我知道原因,一定要看。
因为我堵车到晚了,他要接小孩,
我先去看其它租客,后来等他,
就去吃了晚饭,再等,最后见到他漂亮老婆和二小孩。
其实很简单的问题,我跟他老婆讲了,
第二天又text他,
“Avoid putting furniture up against the wall. If possible don’t put large items of furniture against external walls, but if the layout of your room doesn’t give you the option, allowing a two-inch gap between the back of the furniture and the wall should leave enough room for air to circulate.”
他回i appreciate it ,thank u, have nice day.
