partments for sale are advertised on a regular basis. So regular in fact that one would imagine that these apartment owners who put up their apartments for sale and advertise to this end would know that there’s an unspoken quality that those looking for apartments expect. But alas, this is far from the case, for apartments for sale can be shockingly uninhabitable when one goes to view the physical representation of the advertised product.
How is it possible that people can advertise their apartments as being one thing and yet they turn out to be something entirely unrelated to the advertised? Well, we’re all familiar with the euphemisms used in advertisements in order to lure potential buyers and renters. Euphemisms that the owners or the agents commissioned to represent the owner then explain as being ‘minor issues’ that can be easily fixed. But if they were so easy to fix why would they wait until a potential buyer is put off first? Perhaps because they have no intention of fixing anything, just waiting for an inexperienced buyer to take the heap of mess they call an apartment off their hands.
From rodent infested rooms, to electrical fixtures that could cause a blaze at any moment’s notice, apartments for sale that are inhabitable live among us. The best that one can do is hope they can see through the euphemism used to disguise the mess, and then hopefully spot the disaster upon viewing before signing anything on paper.
