Too much for too little

I have lived here since 2002 (it's 2004) and there are still things that haven't been fixed since I moved in.
If you have no friends and never order out for food, this is probably a great place to live. Why' Because the doorbell that tells you someone is outside freezing their ass off waiting for you to push the button to unlock the door NEVER WORKS. But don't worry, it only takes a month to fix each time it breaks (see how many delivery places will come back after their dude stands outside in January pushing a non-working doorbell for five or ten).
Leaking sinks seem to be the norm here (I guess some people like the sound at night) and poor parking lot lighting lends your vehicle to vandals (maybe some tenants enjoy that, too).
Rent increases a couple of times a year, however, nothing ever gets done. Well, I shouldn't say that NOTHING gets done--take a look at that friggin' office of theirs! THAT is where your rent increases go.
You pay out the ass for heating because the insulation is so poor you can feel some pretty good drafts coming through the bedroom windows and your sliding door.
But, if you have a lot of money you don't know what to do with, LIVE HERE!
ONE MORE THING! Get everything--everything in writing. One manager tells you one thing and the other tells you another--and the first one won't back her original story up. So, if one tells you that they are offering a certain number of months lease, get it in writing. Because the other one will say it has to be a few more--a pretty clever way of KEEPING YOU THERE throughout the next rent increase. That extra couple of months will put a new cover on the "free" pool table in the office. Go somewhere else.
