Fun with Incompetent Landlords
August 17th, 2006 Posted in Buffalo
I live on Elmwood/North. I have about 250sq feet of pure bachelor pad; a vintage 1917 Murphy-In-a-Dor bed folds out of a closet for entertaining the boys. The landlords told me my apartment was like a penthouse studio. They never mentioned I also had ’round the clock drug service behind my building. I think they just forgot to mention it in the lease.
Don’t get me wrong, I actually like the landlords I have. They are very helpful and are extremely thorough. The people that they hire to do the work, however: incompetent.

Cool blog, and I love your logo. Thanks for visiting jennimi! Ahh yes, Buffalo landlords. I remember the days well (I now rent from a relative who also LIVES in the building; makes a huge difference). You are quite lucky to have accessible landlords…. we are currently dealing with drug traffic (more at issue with the problems that accompany this) on our street… the owner? Conveniently located in Brooklyn, NY.

Thanks!
When I first moved in, there were a lot of crackheads. Now it has kind of simmered down. I can still watch a deal or two go down from my window, though. The Latina’s parking lot down the road has a few trucks that pull in slow and pull out fast late at night, if you know what I mean.
