If you've ever tried to find an apartment to rent, you know how hard it is. Even if you realize right away that the perfect home with a caring and understanding landlord will probably not exist, moving can still bring some unpleasant surprises. If it's something small, you're lucky. But all of a sudden, the apartment ceiling falls in, or a hidden camera is found? Still, that's not all!
This is called a "personal terrace" in a $1,000-a-month apartment description.

The ceiling in our room looks like this. Since August, the landlord hasn't done anything.

The apartment owner wouldn't fix a hole in the ceiling for months.

During the renovation of our apartment, someone painted on the wall with dental floss!

A friend sent me a picture of the first apartment he rented. Is it the kitchen or the bathroom?

There was a dead rodent under our porch, and it started to smell terrible. The owner fixed the problem.

My landlord said the renovation was "perfect."

The apartment's owner told me that everything was taken out right before I moved in. I believe he lied.

I moved into my new place. Now I know why the curtains were drawn during the show.

My landlord left a camera that also records sound in the apartment. I didn't hear about it from him.

I told the landlord about a small leak two days ago. Today, things have gotten worse.
