Everything was dirty when we moved into this house. I was told by the landlord that they were going to get it professionally cleaned. That probably set my expectations too high. They definitely didn't get it cleaned and it was probably just "cleaned" by 1 or 2 guys. They left it so gross. Fingerprints all over the walls and doors, basement stairs and unfinished basement that has probably never been swept the whole time they lived here, a black bathtub that just needed some Comet and a good scrubbing, a stove top that was just caked in black, burnt junk, and an oven that looked about the same.
The refrigerator light doesn't work (even after replacing it) and there is no bottom shelf or fruit and veggie drawers, just a big empty pit at the bottom of the fridge. What do they expect me to do, just throw my food in there in a heap. Luckily I had some wire shelves that work to keep stuff somewhat organized. Did I mention that we bought a brand new fridge about 3 years ago and we left it at our house in Kentucky with our tenant?
The bathtub hot water faucet leaks all the time. It literally doesn't turn off. When I turn the knob right to turn it off it starts to slow down and I can get it to about a slow drizzle and then if I keep turning it turns it back on full blast. What the heck!? And the worst part about it was when I called to complain I found out that one of the homeowners/landlords is a plumber for a living. We have a promise that he'll fix it within the next week. I'll believe it when I see it.
The garage door is broken in half at the bottom. It's a wood door. The bottom beam is literally broken in half and the windows are about to fall out. We have a promise that they will replace that as well. It's been a week now...
The dryer was taking forever to dry. We decided to check and see if it was plugged up with lint. We pulled piles of lint out of the exhaust tube. Holy fire hazard, Batman! And the icing on the cake. We woke up today to a bunch of water all around the washer and dryer this morning. We thought maybe one of the plumbing lines above it was leaking. We tightened something and it seemed to stop. Then I did some laundry and the puddle reappeared. I finally discovered the water is dripping from the bottom of the washing machine. He's coming tomorrow after work to look at it. I have a family of five to do laundry for so he better fix that by Tuesday or I'm literally going to go insane. I forgot to mention that I also have a washer and dryer in our old house that was bought 5 years ago as a gift from my mom. I miss my mom.
I just want to go back home.
