Why does an apartment association wants to inspect my old apartment?
I applied for a new rental apartment and I was approved. However the association for that new place wants to inspect my current apartment. I have been renting for a few years and this is the first time it happens and find it a bit invasive. Why do they want to inspect this place?
Best reply by Sean Andrews:
In general, they want to see how you maintained your current or old place to give them an indication of how you would potentially take care of your prospective apartment. This practice has been gaining more popularity with Co-op boards as well as rentals. There are companies that provide this service for a fee (usually the prospective tenant/buyer pays this). In a lot of instances they take photos of your place as and sometimes photos of the prospective tenant/buyer as well. *sometimes these companies try to catch you off guard as to exactly when they will be coming so prepare in advance! Treat it like an interview and except the picture does the talking for you. On the day of inspection,dress neat & keep your place neat. try not to have anyone in the apartment who will NOT be moving with you. You want to minimize potential questions or false assumptions that management may derive from the inspection. Good luck

How do I rid my apartment of fleas coming from the adjoining apartment?
I live in an apartment complex and my apartment is infested with fleas. I have bombed a few times, used powders and have tried topical treatments on my cat. Due to the adjoining apartments being infested due to their pets the fleas keep coming back. My poor cat! My complex does provide monthly pest control, but it doesn’t seem to be helping. What can I do?
I have tried flea colors also.

How can an apartment broker advertise to landlords to sell their apartments?
I’ve been helping an apartment broker guy advertise to people looking for apartments, and now he wants me to try to figure out a way to advertise to landlords who need someone to sell their apartments. I’m having trouble finding any information about this.
