Who pays for mold remediation in a rental?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy rain last month, I noticed a strange musty smell coming from the corner of my bedroom closet. The carpet in that area also seems damp, even though we have the AC on most days to keep everything dry. My roommate suggested it might be mold, but since this is a rental, I'm unsure if we're responsible for addressing it or not. Who typically handles issues like mold in a rental property?
