As someone who lives in a corporate owned building which is an unmitigated disaster, I agree.
If you don’t like it why don’t you move to a better building with better management?
Leases have terms. Don't victim blame.
Yes, and mortgages have obligations too, and they are generally much longer and more difficult to move away from too.
With a lease your financial obligation over the course of the contract is much lower than a mortgage.
A problem caused by a shitty landlord is not the fault of the tenant. Don't victim blame.
You realize moving is a big deal, right? I could talk for 20 minutes about the challenges but the biggest one currently is that I'm extremely far from my lease's end date.
