Enforcement is a much thornier question than what your rights are, though.
Amazing advise!

May depend on the wording in your lease but normally this is the property owner's responsibility. Could try calling the Legal Aid Society.

Oh, and it's never really a good idea to run appliances that use water when you're not going to be home.

If the cost to fix exceeds the cost of the remaining lease, then you need to speak to a lawyer. You probably have the right to break your lease; you may or may not be able to collect any money.

It would probably depend on what your lease says, but when I had tenants my lease requires that keep the premises in suitable living condition. That said, if I didn't do that then the tenants only remedy was to break the lease. They couldn't force me to make the repairs, but I wasn't on the hook to pay them anything to compensate them for relocation costs. That would be very unusual to have in a lease. Especially in a lease with a suspect slumlord. He's probably got a pretty landlord friendly lease and knows what he can and can't get away with under Florida laws.

I'd say move out, cut your losses and hope you get a better deal next time. It's probably not worth the legal costs to fight this.

Small claims cost peanuts and this sounds well within small claims for Florida. Small claims rocks. I sued a landlord once as a college student.

We called the property manager to have the tank pumped again to get some temporary relief. She called me back and informed me that the slum lord told her that he's sick of our shit and won't fix the drain field and won't be renewing our lease.

My question is, do I have any chance of getting him to pay for our moving expenses since the house is unsafe to live in and we're in the middle of our lease? Thanks in advance
I don't know about moving expenses since you'd have those at some point but I would think you'd have a right to break the lease due to the place not fit to live in based on your set of facts. Don't pay the last months rent either and sue in small claims for your security deposit if the slum lord doesn't give it back. But take pictures of the place for evidence including any damage to your personal property.Keep a record of all other added expenses and loss due to having to move suddenly. ( not routine moving expenses ) Honestly, I don't see how a judge could go against you, unless there's something else I don't know. Otherwise, seems you're within your rights. You're in my state and I own 4 apartment units.
