So we moved into this alright apartment about 2 years ago. It needed some cosmetic work including screens in the kitchen and spare room and 80% of the apartment did not have the covers on the heating vents. My fianci at the time (which is now my husband)spent some money on making our first home look decent. We bought paint, put up a bathroom door (since there was a screen door there) put down some throw rugs and really cleaned up the place. We fixed what we could but did not get into really expensive stuff seeing that we were paying rent not owning the dump. Anyhow, the apartment looked really nice by the time we were done. The neighborhood SUCKED!!!! We were kept up all hours of the night with blasting music from outside, upstairs and sometimes the basement. Also, fireworks blaring not only on or around the 4th but whenever the lunitics in the neighborhood felt like it. There was other stuff ie: vacuuming at all hours slamming feet and doors, horrible fighting, dog fights, smells of decomposing flesh and burnt coffee...the list can go on and on but I will move on... So after about 2 years we started looking into buying a house of our own and getting out of this nightmare. It moved a lot faster then we had planned and luckilly for us we did not have a lease. So, we fell in love with this house and put in a bid, it was taken and everything was set up. We will be moving in 17 days. In the mean time we moved in with my parents until the closing. We told the slum lord we were moving and did just that! She had the nerve to call me at my mothers 2x screaming into my ears that we desrtoyed her apartment!I could not believe it! Now, when we left it was obvious work had been done to the place since we moved in but the window screen in the spare room and kitchen were still in disarray from the previous renters. The heater covers were still missing, because they do not make them any longer. We just camoflaged (spelling) with other furniture and such. I told her that the items not fixed or left broken were like that when we moved in. In fact we left a brand new 300 door in the bathroom. She yelled, Oh no, I don't think so." Finally, I snapped!!!! I said, "Oh yes, and by the way we had to deal with a lot of shit from your daughter, her husband and son upstairs for 2 years!!!! I did not mention that before because I didn't want a problem. Now, I am out of there, I know how things were when I moved in and so do they!!!! If you think you are going to lie to try to get one red cent from me, you are wrong!!! And another thing don't call me again here!" ANd I hung the phone up. I can not believe these slum lords think they can get away with this! She was over the house visiting with her smelly daughter 2 or more x a week. She never not once mentioned the screen being ripped from the scum that rented before me. Luckilly, she never called back and if she does she will get another ear full!
