The current manager and maintenance people have known about the concrete and weather stripping for ten years and I have proof. The weather stripping had been replaced, once, incompetently because it was put on in pieces instead of single strips. The wrong size strip was also used so it overhung the frame and got peeled off just by brushing against it. The door was installed so out of whack that layers had to be put at the bottom of the frame.
After about 6 years with the current c-word manager, I stopped asking for any repairs because for the 6 years I asked, her answer was always, 'We've been busy.' or they were waiting to hear from someone else. Fucking lying to my face. Such a c-word.
What it took was for HUD to do one of their inspections. She pointed out some wearing in my carpet, which was cool because I didn't consider it. Why the hell would I get new carpet if they won't fix the floor or weather stripping, right? She asked if there was anything else and I showed the door and floor. Had HUD not gotten involved, nothing would have been done.
This building is designated for low-income veterans, first. Low-income everyone else, second. Low-income in San Diego means the market price for my 435 square feet is $1800. Figure, 12 years ago I was the first to live in my apartment. $800 rent. Property value has probably tripled since original construction. But that doesn't mean their mortgage payments have gone up. God, I hate people who make money on other people without helping the people they take money from. I'm a capitalist who hates capitalism.
