I am a tenant at River Trails apartments and have experienced multiple issues such as mold, rats, sewage, flooding, disabled air conditioning, and a falling ceiling since T.E.H Realty took over. I've been unable to contact the leasing office for over a month, and I don't want to break my lease but feel I need to leave due to the unsafe conditions. I'm also excluded from a class action lawsuit because I don't meet the income criteria. What legal options do I have to break my lease without penalty?
