AKRON, Ohio - Black mold growing at a rental unit is the responsibility of the landlord, just as long as the moisture problem wasn't caused by the tenant.
The vast majority of landlords are responsive, and are genuinely concerned about their tenants. On the other hand, the majority of tenants respect their rental properties, and keep their units maintained and clean.
In either case, landlord-tenant communication is key in promoting a safe, healthily living environment.

where the issue started?
From what is shown in the video the rental clearly has water intrusion around the windows. There is also a water issue in the walls but it is not clear what the source of that would be. It could be roof leaks or lack of moisture barriers as well as several other possible sources. In any case, the unit clearly is in need of inspection and remediation.
