YOU DO NOT PAY FOR THE DAMAGE , YOU RENT SOTHE COMPLEX IS RESPONSIB;LE. RAISE YOUR VOICE OR YOU WILL BE SITTING IN MOLD SOON!

The leasing management of some apartments will come in, clean up the mess, because they are protecting their investment. If it is a problem caused by faulty plumbing, then there should be no cost. If it is your fault, then some apartments do charge you for the clean up. If it is their fault, you informed them of the situation and they don't do anything about it, then whatever state you live in may have a tenant's rights association that you can call to complain or go to your secretary of state and report the business. If it is your fault, ask if you can pay the damage fees on a monthly basis until it is paid off. Also, ask for a copy of the bill. Don't just pay any amount. Good Luck!

YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR THAT!!!!!

Read your lease. Were you responsible for the damage? Did you leave the water running etc? If a pipe broke or it was something else outside your control I would find it hard to believe you would ahve to pay for damages to the apartment. Do you have renters insurance? You may be responsible for paying for the damage to your personal property, things like yourn furniture, clothing etc. Good Luck!

Read your lease agreement before you make any decision. Look for the section under "damage".

Under common law, you need to provide a reasonable notice to your landlord for them to repair the damages within a reasonable time. If the landlord fails to do so, then you have three choices. 1. Get out - move out, 2. Deduct the portion of the rent equal to the area that you cannot enjoy in your property, and 3. Repair and deduct it from the rent. Once again, this is common law, but you will need to find out the laws in your area before making the decision. In the modem time period, most of the lease contract has some written agreement as to damages in the property. Thus, please review your contract first, and if there is no written contract, then check with landlord-tenant law in your area (city hall will be a good place to call)
