I've had it with this place, and it's not even been a week.

General
I really hate this place. I've had bad feelings about it for the last 3 weeks.
While signing the lease, the manger was going over the terms with me and kept this condescending, snotty tone in her voice the whole time, treated me like a was stupid, and she was a really disagreeable cuntrag the whole time. She was nasty to my dad too, so it didn't seem like a personal attack. Still, you'd think they'd want to be NICE to the people who are giving them money.
I've been here less than a week. Moved in on Tuesday the 21st. The place was a mess. my parents and I started cleaning and when I washed the windows, the paper towels came back BLACK. there are holes in the screens, that carpets were not washed very well, and someone was smoking in here b/c there was a thin layer of smoke grime on the windows and even the light switches. Which don't work in any room but the bathroom and kitchen. The blinds were filthy and the landowners said they don't replace the blinds, but we managed to get them to do it. Still waiting on the screen repairs.
I've been trying to unpack and get my stuff put away but there's still so much I need to get (shelves, tables, etc) and then THIS happens....
The fucking apartment has ROACHES. Just my place, mind you. The neighbors across the hall (friend of mine who were thrilled when i told them i was moving in, but are now really surprised by how the real estate people have been treating me). I haven't talked to the downstairs neighbors to see if they have any bug problems, yet, but will be knocking on doors tmw. The exterminators are SUPPOSED to come tmw morning. My dad managed to catch one of the bugs on some tape to show the bug guys just what they're dealing with.
I can't fucking believe this place. I want out. I hate it here and I just want to find a 'forever' home for me and my furbabies. Thank god i haven't brought Luggy or Achilles home yet. Even though all I want to do right now is cry and scream and cuddle something fluffy and warm and loving, I'm glad they're both safe and sound and well-cared for and not having to deal with this bullshit.
I'm about ready to throw i the fucking towel on this place. My parents (who are co-signers on the lease) have made it very clear to the landlords that no bullshit will be tolerated and the exterminators will clean this place out posthaste, or else legal action WILL be sought.
Everyone keeps telling me I need to calm down and just get thru this, that things will work out, and even B is talking about moving in with me by winter, once he gets a job in town and his license back. But I just can't seem to find a silver lining here. I've had bad feelings for weeks about this place and now all my worries are coming to fruition. I haven't done a tarot reading in forever, all my stuff is packed up still. Fuck it, i can't even find my childhood 'comfort item', my stuffed Michaelangelo plush I've had since I was 4.
I want Mikey.
I want Achilles.
I want Luggy.
I want B.
I want my mommy.
I'm sick of being a stray.... Where's my home?

But then you see the grime on the corners of the carpets, the holes in the window screens, the skylight that has never ever been cleaned, nails coming out of the deck boards, and roaches in the kitchen, bathroom, and water-heater closet.
My parents and I were totally deceived on this place. We've had the head maintenance guy lie to us outright about stuff that was obviously not fixed, when he said that it was.
Considered moving right out again and just not paying rent? If they say they'll push it to court, say that so will you and see who backs down. Much easier for them to get a new tenant than lose a case...
Then the neighbourhood started sliding downhill fast and I didn't renew my tennancy, but the point is that if it's only that it needs some love and cleaning, that can be supplied, and at the end of it you have a nice house for a good price ^^
You could try demanding a rent reduction though, if the agent lied about its condition and you have it in writing.
In the meantime, here's a funny picture that might make you crack a smile. Hope it helps!

How about open hostility? Usually does the trick..like 'U wanna step outside huh? Imma gonna slap you like a bitch!'
Though, while things are damned tough, things always get better after they're at their worst. <3 If all else fails, take the advice of DamienHusky, and shove 'em down some stairs! xD
Do what you gotta do, hell, ditch the place if it's doing this much to you. D:
Whatever you choose, I hope for the best for you >:
I hope the inside's one of those "diamond in the rough" things. But they really should have taken care of that shit before moving someone new in, or agreed to a temporary rent discount for you doing it yourself.
Though I presume you saw the state of the place (roaches not withstanding) before you signed the contract though?
The main thing now is that it took me so long to find a place in my price range, all the college students have snatched up the housing in the area. So while I want to move out of here, it's not exactly prudent at this point.
