Advice to owner:
The high prices of the rent doesn't match the quality the apartments in this building. Please do better as a landlord, because you are partially responsible for the living quarters and how this impacts the lives of your tenets. You would not allow yourself or your family members to live in such conditions. Please hold the same standards for your tenants and their wellbeing. You should be ashamed of yourself.
