I’ve been living in a duplex built in the early 1900’s for the past 6 years. I’ve known our wiring is old. I can’t even have an air conditioner window unit because the wiring won’t support it. In the summer, I regularly blow a circuit and the breaker takes overnight to recover and cool down. […]

Hello, I saw one or two begbugs in my apartment sometime ago and used the sprays from walmart to kill it and never saw bedbugs after that.

Our neighbor in the apartment next to us had a serious bed bug problem. The landlord had fumigation done. Now WE have the bugs, have found them, have more bites every day–the landlord is now signaling that he isn’t going to do anything further (we understand that a REAL fix would cost him a lot […]

Landlord said driveway was shared, nothing about the tenants who live downstairs involves a shared driveway. They park right at the end of it even blocking the sidewalk sometimes. I called the police a couple of times to get things documented. Rent is supposed to include off street parking. I will have NO off street […]

I’ve lived in the same apartment in the same complex for 14+ years now with my mother, beginning when I was a young child (about 12)… I never knew how horrible this place was – but now I’m really starting to see the big picture. They’ve never once updated or renovated our apartment, no matter […]
