I am going to say that with the few characters that are in her message, she did notify them. Also typically when a tenant does contact a landlord, or management company about mold, it falls on deaf ears until something like this happens, or they are being contacted by the health department. Good for you Amanda, Boo to the management company. I am a property manager, who specifically went into the business because of a slum lord in a Chicago suburb in 03. And even now, they’re are still a lot of bad eggs out there. Paperwork, names dates and times are crucial whenever you are dealing with a maintenance issue with these people.

We still haven’t heard if she contacted Horizon about the mold before posting that. If she did and they took no immediate action then Horizon will lose big, but if she didn’t then she’ll lose.
