Mold mitigation for SFR when tenant won't let you access the property (Calif)

[Becky Wong Kaplan]

Hello,

I am posting for a friend who has a SFR in CA (a tenant friendly state). The tenant claims there is mold in the house per some report from the City. They will not give friend a copy of the report and told friend to go to the city. The ducts/vents of the house were cleaned not to long ago and the tenant wont let the PM have more testing done or mitigation. What can be done if they are not cooperative? Friend may offer temporary housing at a hotel or another empty rental.

Get your attorney and insurance company y involved

The renter should have renters insurance to cover this as well.
