I smell a lawsuit or, at the very least, a few months of free rent! This thread, which was posted to Reddit's r/mildlyinfuriating subreddit by u/ZombieAbeVigoda, is both shocking and shockingly unsurprising. We have all dealt with shady landlords before, but has it gotten so bad that the roof literally caves in? Are we surprised that it got that bad?
As someone who has spent the greater part of my life in New York City, I have had countless similar apartment experiences. The first two months of my very first NYC apartment as an adult were consumed by a seemingly endless roach infestation, and once that was resolved, we were then met with a seemingly endless leaking roof problem. All this is to say that I feel the pain of this Redditor, and I know what it's like to chase down building managers and insist that the situation is not fixed and they can't get away with doing the bare minimum. As people in the comments section suggested, documenting everything is the key!
