for others (i.e. delivery personnel, service personnel, friends, etc.). Resident is aware that under these

circumstances, Management is not responsible for lost or stolen articles. Resident allows that the

property may be shown during the last thirty (30) days of the tenancy to prospective residents, buyers, or

written notice during this last thirty-day time period and shall allow access as agreed herein.

notice to Management for at least seven (7) days if rent for the unit is outstanding and unpaid for ten

(10) days and there is no reasonable evidence, other than the presence of the Resident’s personal

without the consent of Management, and in the event of abandonment, Management shall be entitled to

all remedies at law or in equity, which provides that if personal property is abandoned by the Resident

sale of such personal property, Management may destroy or otherwise dispose of any or all of the

abandoned property.

There has been some recent publicity regarding the existence of certain types of toxic and non-toxic

mold and similar organisms in homes, apartments and commercial buildings. Current information

indicates that some types of mold may cause severe health problems for certain individuals.

Real estate agents are not trained to identify mold or similar conditions. Mold is not detectable by a real

estate agent – sometimes not even by a professional home inspector or pest control inspector. It is even

possible that a property could have a serious but hidden mold problem unknown to the seller.

The only way to provide any reasonable assurance that a property does not have mold or other health

hazard problem is to retain the services of an environmental expert who will conduct specific tests.

Normally, these tests will consist of an interior and exterior examination for airborne spores, and a

carpet test, though other procedures may be necessary. Any visible mold should be professionally

evaluated.

Since most varieties of mold thrive on moisture, it is extremely important that you report all water leaks

to the landlord or property manager in a timely manner. It is also your obligation to report any signs of

mold or unusual odors in the property.

If the presence of mold is a material matter, you must conduct any and all inspections or tests prior to

signing a lease.

 

By signing below, Tenant acknowledges receipt of this notice.

d) Your landlord cannot raise your rent, except:

·         when the full term of any written rental agreement has expired;

·         after providing you with at least one month advance notice, in the case of a month-to-month agreement;

If judgment is in favor of the landlord in a special detainer case, the landlord has sole discretion regarding the reinstatement of the rental agreement.

You can be held liable for two months rent (or twice the amount of any damages you caused) after your rental agreement with your landlord is terminated if it is found that you willfully failed to act in good faith, according to the terms of your rental agreement.
