Actually some landlords are expecting rent from tenants in Houston
apartments that are flood damaged and not livable.


They still have a mortgage to pay. From what I red, the tenant can
notify the landlord in writing if the apartment in not in livable
condition and void the lease. While is seems sleazy, it may be legal
thing so they can collect insurance. It would be sleazy to actually
collect the rent though.
