    Bad renters exist, but for every story like yours I have five places I’ve lived in where it took months to fix the A/C in summertime and the landlord just let it fucking go meanwhile holding out their greedy mitts demanding $2000 a month.

    2 grand! To live in 90° heat, if I wanted to do that I’d just live on the street.

    Fucking landloids.

        Does cheap mean they’re allowed to not fulfill their maintenance requirements meanwhile showing up on the dot collection day to take rent?

            This will vary greatly from area to area but in most places for a tenant to withhold payment legally the property generally has to have a problem that would make the property “unliveable”. Like the front door falling off the hinges, no water or no functioning toilets or the landlord has to ignore the problem for an unreasonable length of time.

            The A.C breaking in the beginning of summer and it taking a week to get an A.C company to look at it probably doesnt count. Them leaving the A.C broken for the whole three months probably does.
