Günter Fürst has a conflict with housing developer GSWB in Salzburg. The point of contention: a new fan in his bathroom.
At first everything seemed normal. Günter Fürst didn’t notice anything for a long time. “It happened quite slowly,” sighs the 59-year-old. He lives in an apartment owned by GSWB, the largest non-profit property developer in Salzburg. Almost four years ago, Gswb had the fan in the bathroom of his apartment in Salzburg’s Old Town replaced.
“The device was much smaller than the previous one. But I didn’t think about it at all at first,” he says. However, he says the fan isn’t really working and black mold is now forming in the bathroom. “I can’t keep up with the cleaning. The mold is dangerous, I have a lung disease,” says Fürst, beside himself.
He turned to the Gswb completely in vain. He says he no longer receives answers to emails and cannot reach anyone by phone. “Nowadays you just hang up as soon as you hear my name.” He recently received a text message from GSWB. This confirms that a company has been commissioned to carry out the repair. “The whole thing dates from July 2023 and is therefore centuries old. An insolence,” Fürst rages.
When asked, the GSWB itself emphasized: “Mold is always a problem, but it cannot be solved with a fan.” Moreover, Mr. Fürst must have already received a “bon” for his complaint. The majority of these tickets would be resolved within five days. Only major damage would take longer.
