Finding a reasonably priced and comfortable rental place that feels like home has become a challenge nowadays. Rent prices are rising due to a shortage of available rentals, very high home sale prices, costly construction expenses, and a demand for homes with numerous amenities.

We have gathered examples of situations where renting apartments turned into terrible experiences because of landlords.

#11 Landlord Said There Wasn’t An Issue. I Hired A Private Plumber To Check And This Is What I Come Back Too
It’s been smelling like poop in my room and outside for months so I contacted my landlord about it. He said there wasn’t an issue and so I went and got a plumber to come to take a look at it. The main sewer line has rusted out and looks like clogged from toilet paper and most likely paper towels. Now I'm staying in a hotel paid by the landlord.
