Charming house from Hell
Former Tenant
Pros:
Charming house Great neighborhood Amazing water pressure
Cons:
Unresponsive landlord Lazy landlord Dirty Musty Moldy No circulation upstairs (stuff, hot, musty, humid air upstairs) Rusty and rotted wood windows Leaky basement Insects and spiders everywhere Loose base boards and corners of walls Electric issues (exposed wires and blown out and broken lights) Exposed and broken glass Chipped and moldy paint and wall paper Hardware on doors are old and unsafe (broken locks, handles that don’t turn, has been locked in a room for 20 mins until the knob turned) Landlord doesn’t inform us when he is coming over
Advice to owner:
Please listen to your tenants and provide a safe and clean environment. Hire professionals to fix these problems, don’t bring your family friend to “fix” the issue.
