Am I responsible for basement smell?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy rain last month, I noticed a strange damp smell lingering in the basement area of my apartment, which has been driving me crazy. It’s concerning because it’s been there for days now, even though the weather cleared up weeks ago. The rental agreement doesn’t mention anything about maintaining indoor air quality or addressing such issues. Are tenants responsible for reporting and resolving these kinds of problems, or is this something the landlord should handle?
