The most important requirement for landlords is to ensure that they are providing a safe living environment. Unfortunetly, the time-frame to get cable installed and the fact that some insects are found inside the apartment isnt enough legally to do anything. Mistakes like leaking washers are bound to happen, and unless there is proof that neglect caused toxic mold to harm you, it’s probably not going to help you by throwing that out there. The best thing to do is to put your repair request in writing, if management doesn’t respond send them another notice stating that you will pay for the repairs out of pocket, but will be deducting them from future rent, unless the repair is made within 3 business days. That’s what you can do legally.

I’m a renter too, and trust me I’ve had some problems with my landlord, but come on. Is it really that big of a deal? Take a deep breath and count to 10, everything will be ok!
