Q. My daughter lives in a mobile home in Indiana. It was not in the best condition when she moved in, but the landlord told her they would fix everything after she moved in. It has been four months and they have only completed a small portion of the work. We are now finding black mold in the master bath ceiling, the A/C does not work properly and fungus growing up through the floor by the living room door. Does she have the right to terminate her lease under these circumstances without repercussion?
