At my second inspection. Crusty old dude rocks up and talks only to me and asks if I'm viewing the apartment, then asks if I'm single and gives me this creepy grin and says he'd prefer a single to move into the apartment. Oh and of course he's the owner. Shakes my hand and encourages me to apply. Completely ignores the other attendees (male).
I might've seriously considered this apartment despite the very dated kitchen and bathroom and no fly screens, it's pricey but in a very quiet green location and has a sunlit balcony... But after the above interaction I am definitely not applying wtf
E: I am meant to be cleaning the house but our purritude has other ideas. Purrhaps she has sensed my overall distress. I'll miss this lil sweetie when she leaves on Monday
little nugget on my lap
Warning signs all over the place with that one.
Avoid!
Sucks because I really might've seriously considered it for the quietness and the cleanliness. Light filled and still convenient for work. I was sat in the park wondering if I stuck on my own fly screens and everything else worked okay, could I still stick it out since there's a REA intermediary... Esp as this is probably one of the few times I have an advantage (??) as a single renter. But it's for entirely the wrong reasons
Yeah. That’s not the sort of advantage you’d want for sure, it’s creepy and puts you in danger I’d say as well.
