So sorry to hear about your troubles! Life is full of frustration; hang in there, you have many friends! It sounds like from what you describe, that the landlord didn’t even know he was out of compliance with code. It might be best to just back out of the situation and find a new place? Hard for us to say since we are miles and miles away. But whatever you do, keep a cool head and a calm heart. Patience most always wins out. Easy advice to give I know, but super hard to follow, even for myself:).

Most Humbly and Respectfully,

Nate
