Although everything looks to be in order when you first move in, all that quickly unravels.
--bed bugs (which the landlords REFUSE to get professionally exterminated)
--fleas and cockroaches (the landlords gave us a can of flea powder... that was the extent of their extermination. "here's some powder, good luck!")
--vehicle theft (stolen right from the parking lot)
--unorganized landlords (they never gave us a copy of our signed lease, as far as I know, it was lost)
--don't expect your security deposit back (they took our deposit for something that was written in our lease (which we never got) and unrelated to apartment damage.)
--landlords are dishonest (we caught them in several lies)
--repairs (ceiling fan blade flew off...?? and the other ceiling fan is coming out of the ceiling, we can't even turn it on. notified landlord... he never stopped by.)
--they refuse to negotiate (we are in the process of suing them for bedbug damages and stolen security deposit)
I'm sure there are many more little things I could think of. Take it from someone who got royally taken advantage of... steer clear.
I rented from fall '07 through spring '08.
I paid monthly rent of $975 during fall/winter for a private room.
