Question by Gino:
can my girlfriend sue a rental place who rented her a place knowing they had bedbugs and not telling her?

I warned my girlfriend before moving in that the apartment complex had a rep of having bedbugs. Well she figured that since it has been a few months ago, that the place would be ok. Well come to find out, it isn’t.
The screwed up thing about it. My four month old daughter has bite marks from the bedbugs.
The person who rented her the apartment did not tell her about it. He even told her that they had someone come there to spray once a week.

Seems like this country has become sue happy…If YOU warned her about it and SHE thought it would be ok…then, it seems to be her fault. No one else’s…

Renting is not like buying, very little is required to be disclosed. It is not illegal not to tell tenants if there had ever been a bug problem. It is quite possible that they thought it was taken care of since they had someone spray several times.
