You’re definitely under reacting lol | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |
All honesty they should rent you a hotel to stay at while the mess gets cleaned. There is no excuse to not cover the mess they put on you, also yes file a renters insurance claim. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |

This is not only an insurance issue but a hazmat issue. Do not attempt to clean this yourself. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |
Renters insurance* fix’s this issue and problem, and is exactly why you should have it. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |
Yeah we’re talking into the thousands not hundreds for this cleanup. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |

Lol are u retired lonely and bored why are you still messaging me? | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |
You’re not overreacting but whether you should go through insurance or sue the landlord or whatever really depends on where you live I think. Maybe ask in a lawyer channel with your location? I think it all needs to be replaced from a health perspective but I wouldn’t pay for it yourself until/unless you know it’ll be ... | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |
Landlord is responsible for this. Call the company he mentioned and describe exactly what the issue is. They will likely refuse to clean it or have a separate price for it, document that and any attempts to shop around to get appropriate biohazard/blackwater cleaning. Once you get a quote that actually covers cleani... | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
Was a house cleaner for a couple years, can confirm 100% | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
No this looks like sewage coming up. A health department call is also needed. This is a major plumbing issue and not a cleaning issue. I have seen this in a shower situation but very mild. The landlord doesn’t want to fork out the money to fix. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
Absolutely incorrect. Water backup is NOT standard. It is optional and most people do not have it. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
No, it is not state dependent. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
That doesn't happen by accident, that was the neglectful tenants pouring things down the drain they aren't supposed to like grease and if they have a garbage disposal it's even worse as a plumber and Drain cleaner I've seen some top notch ignorance mainly on part of the tenants or hone owners " not knowing " that the... | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
You are definitely not over reacting, that’s definitely sewage. If the land lord is being difficult call the city. You can have your apartment/rental house condemned that’s a real pain in the ass for him to deal with. DEFINITELY hire an attorney | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |

An empty milk carton will work in a pinch, too. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
I can tell you from experience that your renters insurance is not going to cover it, and they will not consider it uninhabitable! They will just ask the apartment complex if it is, and they will say no. Even if you have a lawyer. Your best bet is to try and get out of your lease and move out before it gets worse. (Even... | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
This is a bio hazard and needs specialized cleaning. If the cleaning alone is under 500, it is not clean.
What about your shitstained stuff that is now ruined? Sorry. That is an owner issue and needs to be reimbursed, especially since they knew about previous issues. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
Since that's a bio hazard and apartments and landlords have to supply livable conditions I think legally they have to clean/pay for you to live elsewhere while they do. And you should be able to withhold rent (but put the money aside in an account). Def could be worth small claims/housing court | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
Chill | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
You can’t just usually tuck that money aside, you have to actually bring or send that money to the courthouse, in the event of withholding rent. Check landlord tenant laws in your state before doing any of the crazy jumping to legal action others are advising. Good luck finding a lawyer that wants to take on residentia... | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |

Sanitation and hygiene is a major concern? I would recommend a professional cleaning company. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
Not overeating at all. If the owner can't afford to properly care for and maintain his apartments he should reconsider being a landlord 😊 | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
I'd be breaking that lease ASAP. The landlord is in over his head, according to the last message. You can't reasonably stay there and expect someone who is trying to haggle over what they assume is 150 dollars worth of damage because they're not even accounting for the personal damage. File the claim through renter's i... | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
What you can do if you can call in a cleaning person to clean it up. Make sure that the hazmat person because there's a hazardous waste involved. Then deduct the cleanup expense and the cost to replace any damaged items of yours from your rent and hand him copies of the receipts for all of the above. Honestly, the hazm... | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
I would call board of health first off second this is exactly why having renters insurance is so important. But definitely do not give up this is 100% on them. If they can’t afford to be a landlord then they need to stop being one. Rent $ should be going to the upkeep etc of the building/ home and paying bank.

If it's sewage then it's unlivable. Owner legally has to pay for temporary living quarters like a hotel | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
This is 100% on the landlord. They should be paying for everything related to a proper clean up and they should be making the appointment ASAP. The landlord sounds like an absolute moron trying to push it all off on the renter. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |

Ugh, so sad to see more rampant Landphobia on this sub 🙄. Typical rentoid entitlement 🤡. You should honestly be more respectful of THEIR property rentoid. I bet you don’t even pay the mandatory 300% tip | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |

Land lords are the scum of the earth. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
Yes I used to work for a company used by insurance companies to source temporary housing for exactly these situations. If a place is unable to be safely lived in, insurance companies can find a housing company to put you up in a hotel or temporary apartment with rented furniture until it’s sorted out legally | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
Landlord needs to pay and to say it’s normal for multi family units is a lie. Landlord sounds like a cheapass that used that multi family unit rent to do stuff they shouldn’t. 🤷🏼♀️ | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
When this happened to me I made the management company hire Servpro to remediate it, they always come right away since they specialize in emergency issues. These are the same guys that get called out when someone dies and isn’t found for a month.

This is exactly what tenant laws are for do your research and hire a lawyer, in the mean time call the appropriate authorities to inspect and replace everything. DOCUMENT EVERYTHING. Including all communication with your landlord. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |
A landlord has to provide housing if your unit is uninhabitable (what you’ve got going on absolutely fits that category), they’re not being generous/kind. It’s the law. I’m pretty sure it’s across the country but maybe it’s just California. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |

You are doing it right .

Incorrect, renters insurance doesn't cover much, just personal belongings and liability.

I hear ya. It’s a broken window though. You call the window service or send them a picture and they will tell you the replacement cost.

Send them a letter via certified mail requesting the funds be rightfully returned or you will sue them in small claims court. If you end up suing them make sure they also pay you for any fees associated with litigation as they will also be responsible for that | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-23-07 |

Agreed. I say they'd probably need a bigger dumpster but that would likely cost more and they wouldn't want to spend the extra money. Also, I'm pretty sure whoever does the trash has a schedule as to when they pick up the trash. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |

The fact that other units are getting serviced means that it’s most likely you that are the problem. Spamming and harassing your LL is a good way to achieve the complete opposite of what you’re trying to accomplish. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |

Bill be ween | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |
You're missing the point trying to be contrary for no reason. The 4 hour notice is the issue here. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |
This is definitely a mass message. Secondly, it’s not four hour notice. You were notified in the lease the circumstances of which you had to obey in order to rent. Not have renters insurance would put you in violation of the lease. But you have renters insurance so no sweat. Just respond with valid proof and move on. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |
Ehh you make a lot of good points but,
Ok first so the lease says you need renters insurance, he has it, there’s just the need to send proof as long as he emails back something in a timely manner landowners can screw themselves (unless there’s some clause in the lease about providing proof before a certain date)

It depends on what your lease says. If it just says you're required to purchase it, then they can't, but they could evict you for not having it--in which case letting them sign you up is better. Your lease might give them permission to purchase a policy for you if you fail to do so, in which case they can 100% do it. Y... | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |
The forced coverage is $11/month. Lets go with your assumption that it's a kickback scam. So LL is getting $2/month kickback per unit? I highly doubt they're going through this for $2/month. The administrative costs of monitoring compliance are hardly worth it. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |
The lease may very well explain that if no proof of insurance is furnished then they can/will apply their own. I’ve seen it in many leases. The language you quote implies nothing about it being a new rule and the language you did not quote implies that it’s in the lease.
The line you quoted does imply that someone fina... | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |
Emailing the actual proof would be even better lol | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |
if the requirement for renter's insurance is in the lease, *that* was the notice.
this message is simply notifying the tenant that the requirement is about to be enforced. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |
"Will be been", sounds illegal | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |

And yes, it’s legal. It’s for your protection. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |
I wish I had a dollar for every person who has commented "just get insurance!" - the whole point of the post is that I already have insurance. Insurance is great, I agree. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |

Never underestimate the greed of a trashy landlord. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |

It’s obviously a clerical error if you have it and you’ve added them as an interested party. | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |
Yes it’s legal. Especially if it’s noted in your lease that you have to have insurance. Most companies either charge penalties for lack of insurance, or charge you a fee for a 3rd party (like they’re trying to do). | r/renters | comment | r/Renters | 2024-22-07 |
