Hi! My sister is renting a house in northern FL that has
no heat. Just after she moved in over 2 months ago, she
told the landlord about the broken furnace. Due to his
financial problems, he will not fix it. We believe he is
trying to force her out because he regrets signing the
lease for $800 per month as the mortgage is $1100 (he told
her this). What can she do legally? Who can she contact?
She was just divorced and has no money to pay an attorney
or to pay security deposits on a new place. She has pets
which makes finding another rental difficult. And it's
unlikely that she will see her security deposit without a
battle due to the irresponsibilty of the landlord.
