I rent an apartment in a big subdivided house, I live on the ground floor. An aircon unit just fell out of my upstairs neighbours window and landed just outside my own window. This was a bit alarming because not half an hour earlier I was poking my head out that window to water my plant (the plant is fine thankfully). There’s a whole row of aircons sitting outside windows that could all also fall out which is also concerning.
I’m curious if there’s anything I can do in the way of complaining to anyone about my landlord not providing a safe living environment?
I’m doubtful, but wanted to ask, just in case.
You can complain about whatever you want but first you need to figure out what it is that you want.
If you just say “its unsafe” they will just come by and say “it’s safe now”.
Yeah, I just want cheaper rent, but realistically that’ll never happen.
Yeah, you’re right.
I mean if you were the landlord, an awesome landlord, you wouldn’t discount the rent over something like this. You’d fix the problems but you wouldn’t discount the rent.
That’s a pretty good way to put it.
