Is My Lease Breakable in Nevada?
We rented a home in Las Vegas, Nv. recently through a property management company and upon doing our walkthrough after moving in (which we found odd they’d ask us to do after we moved in but assured us was completely normal), we relaized a serious issue with the property. The upsatairs bathroom toilet was sitting side ways and we noticed that it was due to the floor having previous water damage and sinking in, also noticed a large amount of mold around the floor and that the floor boards are loose due to half of the bathroom sinking in. Not only is the mold a health issue, but anyone of us showering or using the restroom in there could be seriously injured. Long story short, we reported the issue to the property manager and also made him aware of the fact that I have a chronic health condition, in which my immune system is compromised and that I could not be in a home if it has mold, he gave us the run around for an entire day, within which he made an untactful joke about how he did not care about my health. He then told us that us that he would call us by the end of the day and let us know when someone could be out. Never heard from him and when I called back I was told he’d left for the day. I then asked to speak with his boss, who proceeded to not listen to my complaint, ask me to hold for a moment, (and without telling me) forward my call to thier general contractor, whom had no idea who I was or why I was calling and said this was the first he had even heard of the problem. We now feel a major lack of trust for this company. We paid a lot of money to move in hear because we thought this was reputable company and their lack of communication with us, just make us feel as they don’t even care. We would like to know what our legal rights are in Nevada for breaking this lease if any at all. And who can we contact regarding making sure this issue is taken care of promptly and properly. We signed the lease 3 days ago. Please Help ASAP!
