The property had major structural issues and ongoing water ingress. Water got into the wardrobe and caused mould to grow behind the paint, sometimes spreading to visible areas, and we had clothing in front of it which made it worse. We suffered about $3,000 worth of damage to clothes. The building owner took a long time to pay the agent for mould treatment, and we only received $500 towards the damaged clothing.
