If the dwelling unit or home has become inhabitable due to indoor mold infestations, the tenant may find a legal recourse to end their tenancy prematurely without legal issues. Tenants and landlords should seek legal advice whenever there is a dispute between both parties. A tenant may call the health department if they feel the landlord is not maintaining habitable living conditions. Withholding rent is usually unjustifiable unless the tenant goes through the proper channels to report inhabitable conditions first.
