Not asking for donations, i just want to vent

$100 for 2 application fees, a $9 "service fee"each to pay for the application fee

$30 pet registration fee, with a $9 "service fee" to pay the $30

$400 pet deposit

$1500 damage deposit with a $50 "service fee" to pay that

$1500 first month rent

This is all for the cheapest 1 bedroom apt I could find this is insane. Also why was a 10 month lease like $300 a month cheaper than a longer lease? They're gonna bump the rent up at least that much after aren't they?

$9 fees to take your money? Jesus H.

its always good advice to take photos of a rental when you take possession, but God almighty, I would document every room and store all the photos on 4 flash drives, because you know those psychos are gonna chisel you on move out day for every dime of those deposits.
