[Tenant US-MI] Seeking Advice: Property Management Company refuses to fix heat, other problems
2025.01.22 16:01 Corolo1 [Tenant US-MI] Seeking Advice: Property Management Company refuses to fix heat, other problems
Currently living in Detroit with 3 roommates
The problems we are currently dealing with are:
-the heat does not work on the second floor. We have had an inspector come out 3 times and confirm this. We were told from the inspector that they would be ticketing the management company/owner until they fix the issue. There has been no initiative to fix this issue and nothing has happened.
-the hot water does not work in one of the showers on the second floor due to poor pipe insulation, so whenever the temperature drops below freezing, the hot water does not work.
-there are squirrels in our ceiling that have been coming in through various holes on the outside of the house. More than likely there has been some sort of damage on the inside because it sounds like they have also gotten into the vents. Also at a certain point, due to various cracks and holes on the inside of the house, a very repulsive smell was present, most likely due to the rodents defecating inside the house walls/ceiling.
-As mentioned, there are cracks and holes in the walls that let quite a bit of cold air in, as well as very poor weather proofing on the front and back doors. Due to this and the heat not working on the second floor, we are forced to use space heaters which drastically increase our DTE energy bill during the cold season.
-There are other issues but these are the most pressing at the moment
We have complained to the management company about all of these issues and they have basically done little to nothing.
I’ve contacted various organizations that pointed me to the United Housing Coalition and Michigan Legal Help. Everywhere it says you should threaten to put money into an escrow account that would be going towards rent (which we will be doing), and if the management company does not act then we do that and proceed with the various conflicts that happen. I’ve read through various stuff online about housing laws but I’m not finding anything regarding how much to put in escrow.
The rental property is also not registered with Detroit’s BSEED as a rental and does not have a certificate of compliance with the city.
My concern is that through the various conflicts that may arise from us proceeding with not paying rent to the landlords, that we may be forced to move from the property because the city may condemn the property as uninhabitable. This is unlikely because the place isn’t completely disheveled or anything but I think it’s still a valid concern given that the repair for fixing the heat may require some gutting of the dry wall, honestly I don’t know.
I’ve spoken to Lakeshore legal aid which provides free legal advice to low income housing and was declined for legal aid because I make more than a certain amount (which isn’t even that much considering I work part time at a cafe). Additionally, I contacted the state bar, who provides you with a lawyer to talk to for $25 for 25 minutes. They said they don’t have any housing attorneys in their offices and that I would have to find one separately from the state meaning I have to pay for a full fledged lawyer, and I don’t know how much that is.
I’m not sure if there are any more options for us besides speaking with a lawyer, but I’m wondering if anybody has any advice for this issue, I’m honestly at my wits end with this whole process.
TL;DR living in Detroit, management company refuses to fix heat not working on 2nd floor of house, hot water not working in shower during freezing temps, squirrels and rodents in the ceilings, cracks gaps and holes inside and outside of property. Having difficulty finding advice how to proceed from resources online

 | I started playing this game a few months ago. Took about 100 hours to get good. On a rainbow run , I found a glitched chest and wasn’t sure how that would play out. I never even beat a glitched chest before so that was fun. Unfortunately you only don’t get items. I decided to kill the mimics just for fun. submitted by bathtumtea42 to EnterTheGungeon [link] [comments] |

2025.01.22 16:01 bryan_cohen Create a Craft Tutorial Website
If you are skilled in crafts like knitting, woodworking, or pottery, consider creating a website offering detailed tutorials, DIY project ideas, and troubleshooting tips. You can produce video tutorials, step-by-step photo guides, and downloadable patterns or templates. Monetize your site through membership fees, selling your own craft supplies or kits, or via affiliate marketing by linking to tools and materials you use. Engage your audience by offering live Q&A sessions, community craft challenges, and customer spotlights. Promote your content on social media platforms popular with DIY enthusiasts, like Pinterest and Instagram. Over time, as your follower base grows, so does the potential for passive income through ads and sponsorships.

2025.01.22 16:01 Frozen_Speaker_245 help with storage set up.
Hey I'd love some help with setting up storage. And some best practices possibly a tutorial video or article. I've provided some images for how i have it currently after follow a youtube guide, but that guy changed his set up 3 months later and now im curious if this is a terrible way of doing it?
I have 1 nvme drive running proxmos. 2x 4TB hdds that I want in a mirrored config for some redundancy it will be used to run vms/containers and store photos etc, so more important things.
I will then also have a 10tb hdd for plex and other media I don't mind losing if it fails. and a 1tb SSD that im not sure what to use for yet, maybe downloads before putting them on the 10tb?
How should I set up my nfs pool/config for my mirrored drives? I currently have it set up in a very wrong way I think...? As a directory? should it be mounted as a zfs?

2025.01.22 16:01 Hahkunahmahtataz I'm starting to feel desperate for social connection
Hi.
I've always had a hard time making friends and finding the right ones. Like seriously, from childhood to now. I never understood why, I still am not sure what it is about me that attracts such trouble. Maybe it's because I just let the people in my life absolutely take advantage and I accepted it. Or maybe the people around me gave me a bad look and I'm forever cursed. I don't have a hard time romantically finding a partner but friends are the kicker for me. At times when I dwell on this, I start to feel desperate and just spiral into sadness and feel disgusting because of the desperation. Like I shouldn't let this affect me so much. But sometimes I just let it win because I would rather feel something than to lose myself in something else. When I think about this, I think about all the lost time, all the experiences I've missed out on and wish I could go back to see if I can do anything different haha. The past is the past. So yeah, I'm a lonely person that seems to always find trouble when I want something genuine. I'm tired of being the "convenient" friend, tried of being used for what material I happen to provide. Tired of mind games and being used. I'm tired of being used by shallow people. Why is this process so hard for some people but the complete opposite for others?
