I placed a Complain ( # XXXX ) it came back as resolved???

1st Question : Hunter Warfield is indicating that " Interest is accruing at the legal interest rate on the account ''? I can not find that information on the Lease anywhere. Also what is the Legal Interest Rate? How much is that? where does that come from? 

2nd Question : Water was inside the walls. Sheetrock can be Dry but Mold can grow inside ( Smell is very distinctive ) XXXX XXXX promised that they will get a " Professional '' company to make a full report. I am still waiting for the official report. 
XXXX  show moisture meter which shows up to 12 % + of moisture ( 16 % is high moisture in walls ) I am still looking for the report that XXXX  promised when I spoke with them. ( I did contact them about mold ) I told XXXX  if they get me a professional report ( From certified Company ) indicating that there are no Mold inside the walls and under the cabinets I will pay the charges. 
Also location of the Moisture reading done by? is not indicated anywhere. 
How about under the cabinets ( There was 2 '' of water sitting in the kitchen / Living room area ) CFPB automatically accepting explanations without actual proofs from Hunter Warfield Inc. is not acceptable and I like CFPB to reopen this file. 
Hunter Warfield could have cost me Thousands in higher interest and I would like them to remove this charge immediately.
