MY NEED TO VENT TODAY
Well i need to winge today. Last week we had a inspection in our house from the real estate we rent from and recieved our periodic inspection letter today.
Because i had told them we had 2 broken windows which Jordan did, they turned up with the owner, the manager with a camera and the Property Manager and stayed for 45 minutes. We were never told about the camera or the owner coming.
Besides the broken windows they winged about our oven and bathrooms not being clean enough, tried to tell us a oyster light was broken when infact it wasnt it had just had its lightbulb changed and needed to put back on the cover.
They then winged about the airconditioning filter saying it was dirty when in fact it had been cleaned 2 days prior, i remember when we moved in the owner came out to look at the aircon because it wasn't producing cold air, which the owner had to vacuum the filter out which was thick with dust.
They went on about the carpets which we cleaned 2 days prior and i have made it very clear the carpet is about 10 years old and its been fair wear and tear. I had to laugh because the pictures given to us showed a cream clean carpet.
They then went on about the garden beds, which are 10 times better than what they were when we moved in, told us weeds were growing out of the driveway, when we had a look we couldnt see any and i emailed telling them they must have been smoking weed that day because there is none.
They then winged about a bathroom fly screen saying we had broken it, when infact it was broken when we moved in, which i told them unless our son had been doing Bat Man impersonations off the roof, this is maybe how it happened.
They said the walls wernt clean enough which we complained about before we moved in how filthy they were and were told because we had kids they didnt clean them. We have scrubbed these walls from day one, its in need of a new paint job.
They then to top it off were caught going through our cupboards. This really pissed me off to no end and told them under no uncertain terms is it their business how we live, as long as the oven, walls, bathrooms etc are cleaned and left the way they were when we moved in after we move out only then they need to worry about this.
The owner winged about the kids pool in the yard because she was worried about the grass underneath. For gods sake that is the most ridiculous thing i have ever heard, the bloody grass will grow back once we pull the pool down.
Real Estates are a pain in the rear, i know they look out for the owner, but we pay $365 per week with airconditioning that doesnt work properly because there is no insulation in the roof and we have just got a massive electricity bill $2500.00 for 5 months. We asked them about this since last November and was told the motor is not equipped for the size of this house and also because of the insulation problem.
We are struggling to pay this off as well. Imagine Winter, gawwwd we are going to freeze our tits off, because of no insulation in the roof,we cant afford to have the heating running.
Anyway i needed to winge, i was so angry that infact i was shaking when i sent my email to them.

Those people have a lot of audacity to go through your cupboards. I would be furious too. I rent too but here in Alaska the owner is not allowed to come to the apartment like they did to you and criticize how you live. Damn, I would be pissed off too.
OMG this sucks big time. How old is the house?, if it was built within the last decade...it should have insulation in the roof as law. What shitty, shitty (excuse the french) owners. We used to take photos of existing damage when we rented plus listed every little, crack, dent, mark and stain as they are all rogues and parasites.
Its a bastard isnt it i think weve all had assholes for ladlords before, they know how to stick it to ya.
And its worse when you know that you are right and they are wrong and you still pay the price.
