I was a good tenant. I paid on time. I didn't wreck my apartment. I did need repairs once: the hood (required by code) over my stove was never installed. I did ask for an exterminator repeatedly, because mice were coming in through the walls (there was a 2" gap between the floorboards and the sheetrock behind the baseboard radiator cowling; I caught 18 mice in one weekend). I did ask for an exterminator repeatedly, because about 15 months in bedbugs started coming in through my walls. About 16 months in, my landlord informed me they were going to begin eviction proceedings against me for failure to pay rent. I had paid every month, on time. The building had changed owners, and the new owner bungled their rent payment history. Had to hire a lawyer to send them a letter (along with a thick packet of supporting documents) declaring that no, in fact, I did not owe them four months rent. So yeah, between illegally trying to evict me, never once exterminating that place, etc etc .... I'm glad I don't live in a building owned by a shitty landlord anymore. I'd give my previous landlord a solid F-; I'd give my current landlord an A. I'm also paying 150% what my previous place was for the privilege of having a landlord that doesn't violate the law monthly.
