Yep, that is exactly what I am going through right now: a complete nightmare.
The week started off well – last weekend my good friend Jen and her husband came from San Francisco for the weekend and we all went to Disneyland for the day. That was awesome! But then things went downhill.
It started off with the air conditioner leaking and dripping through the doorframe in my bathroom. So of course our landlord couldn’t get anyone to come look at it for a couple days so we had to have the air conditioning off – which was a nightmare all on its own. And it had to be when this area is going through an unexpected unusual heat wave. nice.
After 2 very long very HOT nights of not sleeping well, I had to go to the college yesterday morning to register for my classes and when I got home there was water (a lot of it) dripping through the ceiling in the family room. There was about a 6 foot by 2 foot section of the ceiling that was soaking wet and water droplets continuously falling from it onto the carpet. I called the property management company right away and said it was an emergency – that they need to send someone NOW. 3 people rushed over and within half an hour, a quarter of the ceiling was completely missing. They finally got a plumber to come by an hour later and an air conditioning guy like 4 hours later and when they finally figured out the problem it was about 9:00pm. We had spent ALL day just hanging around waiting to find out what was going on. The huge leak was from a small leak in a pipe that was upstairs in my bathroom. The other leak was from the air conditioner – both were completely separate from each other and just a major coincidence that they happened simultaneously.
Since there was so much water damage, they called in a company to come dry it so we have these huge LOUD dryers all over the place and they have to stay on for 4 days straight. And we still don’t have air conditioning and might not for several days. HOWEVER, the best is yet to come. Today we got eviction letters (me and my 3 roommates who haven’t even arrived yet). We were told that the house has been deemed unlivable and we have to get out ASAP. Well actually the other 3 girls were told that they aren’t even allowed to set foot in the house (and they are supposed to move in on Sunday- have their moving companies booked already). It states that since I am here, I am allowed to stay for a few days until I can remove all my belongings. OMG
Where are we supposed to go? It’s not even like I can easily find a place to stay in the meantime until we find a new house – as I come with 2 dogs and a guinea pig. This is a complete disaster, but 2 of my roommates are coming tomorrow and we’re going to try to find another place to move into ASAP. Crossing my fingers….
here’s a couple pictures of the disastrous mess..
the family room
the ceiling in the living room
and my bathroom. When I went into it to take this picture it was like 200 degrees in there
Anyway, thought I would put an update on here while I still have internet. Time to get out of this hot house – heading to the dog park with the pups!
Thanks for posting about this, I would love to read more about this topic.
Jessica, that is just the worst. I’m so sorry. I hope things get sorted out soon. Things will get better, and you will find a great place to live. I’ll be hoping for good news for you, soon.
Hang in there!

OMG, my husband says you should go to the local tenancy board and explain your situation maybe they can help, or he said maybe a good lawyer!!
That totally sucks, where abouts are you living?? I have friends in San Francisco and San Diego….
Oh no! How horrible and extremely frusterating! Ugh…Hope your able to find a new place asap.
Jessica, I am so sorry that happened to you. You are right, a total nightmare. I will be hoping and praying that things start looking up for you. Stay strong girl!

OMG Jessica! I can’t imagine how stressful that must be for you. Deep Breath, you will find your solution. What about tenants insurance? Did you have a chance to purchase it? Perhaps there is a section for “Additional Living Expenses” which will usually cover situations like this while it’s unlivable. I can’t believe the landlord is doing this to you and not giving you the opportunity to make the choice. That’s just terrible.
I really really hope a solution is available for you. I’m sending you all my happy thoughts and will be anxiously awaiting news that things have worked out.
OMG Jess!!! That IS a disaster indeed! Hope you find a house ASAP! Sending you “house finding” thoughts today! Stay cool as best you can!
Oh Jess, how absolutely horrible – I hope that you will soon find a place that is cool and will take your fur babies! In the meantime, try to hang in their and know we are all sending positive vibes your way!!!!
OMG a nightmare indeed! I hope everything turns out alright. Good luck!
Keep up the good work and good luck with your site – are you having fun with it? It’s interesting and well worth the time to visit.
OMG! That is a nightmare, hope you all find a place soon!
