I was talking to my neighbor and she was complaining about how the house she is renting has so many issues. I have walked through it once before to help her move stuff and thought for the age it was decent I mean there was some things that could be fixed up, like an outlet that didn't work, dirty floor and that she had a ton of birds that lived up in the corner roof of her place. So a couple of days ago she decided to contact a public health inspector and told me about it. She told me they came and sent the landlord a report. I was surprised they would come out let alone send a report but she was able to get them to do that. Anyways it got me thinking what power does a public health inspector have in relation to rental units. I know this isn't grow up and the house is not in total disarray. Thoughts?

They have the ability to deem the place unfit for living and condemned it if it's bad. They could give the landlord a list of things that needs to be up to code for health and safety act.
