My spouse as well as I do not have the best luck when it comes to picking good apartments.
The last condo that my associate and I lived in was super nice, but the air conditioning did not work.
My buddy and I tried telling our landlord that it did not work, but she just ignored the issue. My buddy and I waited an entire year for him to service it, but she did not. After a year of living without air conditioning, my associate and I finally decided that it was time to move. I was super bummed about moving in one sense because I genuinely appreciated the condo that my associate and I lived in. It had two family rooms as well as two bathrooms. The family room had been completely remodeled, as well as it was lovely. My spouse appreciated that condo too, but it just was not practical because the air conditioning did not work. My buddy and I did not want to have to buy a window unit when the cost of air conditioning was already fit into our rent. I am sure that my spouse could have fixed the a/c himself, but she refused to service it because that was not her job… She told our landlord that she would be willing to help him service the air conditioning if she would just come over as well as look at it or hire someone to service it. It is all over now because my associate and I moved to a new apartment. It is not quite as new, but at least my associate and I have air conditioning. My buddy and I are hoping to find another more modern condo in the future. My buddy and I just have to make sure that A/C works before my associate and I agree to rent it.
