Could it be…another story about a shady landlord?!?!

You bet it is!

And I have a feeling that you’re going to be quite impressed with how this renter handled this guy’s outright lies.

It pays to tell the truth folks, and this story proves it!

Check out what he did after he found out his landlord wasn’t being truthful about why inspectors were stopping by to take a look at his apartment.

I was told to let inspectors into my apartment and to cooperate with them.

“The company that owns my building emailed us that inspectors were coming by to look at our apartments because there was possible structural damage from a recent storm.

They told us we had to let them in, it was mandatory, and that we should cooperate with them.

How about a heads-up…?

I tried to email back to ask when roughly today they’d be by and who’d be entering the apt bc it was possible I wouldn’t be home, but it was from an account that doesn’t accept replies.

The inspectors came by earlier, but it turns out that they weren’t inspecting the apartments for storm damage specifically, but looking at the general condition of the apartments because they represent a company looking to buy the building.

Well, if you really want to know…

I cooperated fully and answered all their questions, which included telling them how the fire alarm system goes off randomly and did four times in the first two weeks I was here, how there are electrical issues that cause one of my lights and my microwave to randomly stop functioning, how the walls are so thin that I can hear the subway/the people at the bar a few buildings down/my neighbor.

He didn’t hold back!

They also asked me about my general experience here and I told them that I’m leaving the day my lease is up, and that I could never imagine someone living in this building longer than their one year lease, if that long.

I included that when I raised the possibility of moving out in my first month the current owners offered to give me all my money back, including application fees, so that they were most likely used people moving in and abruptly moving out.

It was pretty satisfying to watch the lead guy’s wheels turning as he most likely lowered the bid for the building in his mind.

I don’t think it was all me, because talking to the tenants here must have involved a lot of negative comments, but I’m glad for the role I played in it because the current owners are terrible.”

I’d say this guy got what was coming to him…

No doubt about that!

Well played, sir!

That’s what you get for being a bad landlord!
