17 cases when rented housing presented surprises (18 photos)
Most people have encountered renting a home at least once in their lives. However, photos in ads do not always match reality. In reality, what tenants are presented with is not a mansion, but apartments that could easily serve as a backdrop for a horror movie
A "suitable" toilet seat
I think I'll need a bucket more
Just open the windows and let it freeze!
This room was already depressing, I think the water even brightened it up a bit.
Why get rid of bugs when you can just paint over them?
The homeowners didn't believe me when I told them we had a slug infestation
I asked the owner to replace the dirty sponge (left). He heard the request and brought us this (on the right)
Today the landlord turned off the radiators in the apartment because in his opinion it became warm outside
However, the owner forgot that he pays for electricity, and for me comfort is above all.
Here's How Landlord "Fixed" Leaky Ceiling"
Landlord Optimized Our Cat Door
Every time we ask our landlord to fix the shower, they just add a new nozzle
If they all came out at once and with good pressure, it would be the best shower in the world.
My landlord said there was a pool, but he didn't mention it was closed... FOREVER
The landlord hung up the microwave. It only opens like this
I guess that would qualify as "cruel and unusual."
Put the plate on its side, then the food. Once it's done, pick up the steaming hot food with your bare hands.
My "cool" landlord stopped cleaning my pool because kids who didn't live there were playing in it
We asked the landlord for a bigger table - he made us this
He's just trying to go green by saving money.
Our shower is completely falling apart. The owner has been ignoring any complaints for 2 months
The tenants left their things under the fridge after moving in, but the owner didn't even think to clean up before we moved in
Dirty alphabet soup!
Honestly, it's like years of sweeping up the last bit of dirt that the dustpan won't catch, so you just give up and sweep it up somewhere no one will see.
So that's where the TV bullet went!
About 2 weeks ago I told my landlord that the ceiling was dripping intermittently, but he didn't do anything about it
This is what my morning looked like today.
Our landlord keeps saying our shower is fine
