Hello! I'm sorry to hear about your headaches. Have you seen a doctor to confirm that the fumes from the oven are causing your health issues? This could be an important piece of evidence for your case.
How can you prove that?

I have an apartment with serious violations. Gas leak. No oven, no ventilation in the bathroom and kitchen. If I repot these can I become homeless?
That's a serious situation. In Texas, tenants have certain rights and protections. Are you worried about being evicted if you report these violations to the relevant authorities?

*. Right to terminate the lease if the landlord doesn't fix major problems.
*. Right to report code violations to local authorities.
*. Protection from retaliatory eviction.

Thank you for the information. In Texas, if there's a pending lawsuit involving a property, it can complicate the sale but doesn't necessarily prevent it. Are you the property owner or a potential buyer?
