We were both hesitant about our decision, right up until we sold the house. We found a small two bedroom apartment and we put our deposit down. Within the first three months, we knew we had made a mistake. The air conditioning broke down shortly after we started using it. I asked the building manager to get the HVAC company out to service the AC unit. Instead of the HvAC company, they sent the handyman over to change the air filter. The air filter didn’t get our air conditioning unit running. I was frustrated and I couldn’t wait until our six month lease was up. We were already beginning to look for a small home in a retirement community so we could get away from the apartment and the horrible HVAC system.
