Mold Disclosure. Except as may be noted at the time of the Tenant’s move-in inspection, the Tenant agrees that the Property is being delivered free of known damp or wet building materials (“mold”) or mildew contamination. If checked ☐, the Property was previously treated for elevated levels of mold that were detected. The Tenant acknowledges and agrees that (i) mold can grow if the Property is not properly maintained; (ii) moisture may accumulate inside the Property if it is not regularly aired out, especially in coastal communities; (iii) if moisture is allowed to accumulate, it can lead to the growth of mold; and (iv) mold may grow even in a small amount of moisture. The Tenant further acknowledges and agrees to the responsibility to maintain the Property to inhibit mold growth and that the Tenant’s agreement to do so is part of their material consideration to lease the Property from the Landlord. The Tenant agrees to: • Maintain the Property free of dirt, debris, and moisture that can harbor mold; • Clean and dry any visible moisture on windows, walls, and other surfaces, including personal property, as quickly as possible; • Clean and dry any visible moisture on windows and other openings in the Property to prevent water from entering the premises; • Use exhaust fans, if any, in the bathroom(s) and kitchen while using such facilities and notify the Landlord of any inoperative exhaust fans; • Immediately notify the Landlord of any water intrusion, including but not limited to roof or plumbing leaks, drips, or “sweating pipes”; • Immediately notify the Landlord of overflows from the bathroom, kitchen, or laundry facilities; • Immediately notify the Landlord of any significant mold growth on surfaces on the Property; • Allow the Landlord, with appropriate notice, to enter the Property to make inspections regarding mold ventilation; and • Release, indemnify, hold harmless, and forever discharge the Landlord and their employees, agents, successors, and assigns from any and all claims, liabilities, or causes of action of any kind that the Tenant, members of the Tenant’s household or their guests, including invitees, may have at any time against the Landlord or the Landlord’s agents resulting from the presence of mold due to the Tenant’s failure to comply with this section.
