You might need to talk over this serious concerns you have to your Landlord. And if he cannot settle all these complaints you have with your neighbor downstairs, then there is a section in RPA’s website that you can use to file for your complaint if your Landlord has not done anything to solve the problem you have. And worse,if your landlord chooses not to cooperate, well its high time for you to sue your Landlord for not doing his part on taking major actions on these issues with another tenant he has.

The advice I would give would be to either force your landlord to make the needed repairs by properly escrowing your rent until the repairs are made, or do as Ciara said above and find a solution to terminate your lease early.

It sounds like you are looking to break your lease early, right?

To end your lease early can be difficult. In fact, many times its not possible. The only real way to terminate your lease would be if you could prove that the landlord had breached the agreement he made with you. If the landlord specifically included the washer/ dryer in the agreement and now you have no access– that could be enough to be breach of agreement thus allowing you out of your agreement early.

Most likely you will need some type of help resolving this dispute. I would suggest hiring an attorney or filing a complaint with the RPA.
