This is definitely not the dirtiest apartment I've seen. There was an apartment in the city that my father bought to renovate..he bought the whole thing for I believe 25K.
Here's a nice description of it:
When I walked in...I immediately noticed hundreds, if not thousands of cockroaches scurrying around the walls, vents, on the floor. Some dropped off the ceiling onto my head. Mice had occupied the entire house as well, and baby mice were hopping along in lines on every floor of this house. I think I stepped on, and killed about half a dozen mice just walking from the front door to the kitchen...not to mention all the rat poop everywhere.
Inside the refrigerator, in the Egg holders..there were dead cockroaches...the oven had a left over lasagna from probably ages ago, dried up with dead cockroaches inside of it...grease stains everywhere ofcourse...inside out, on the floor, on the counters. The freezer had frozen cockroaches in the ice compartment.
Upstairs was also a mess, trash and dirty old, sticky porn magazines laid strewn across the floor..in the other room there was a pile of used diapers in one corner of the room about 5 feet high and 7 feet wide, about 4 feet thick. We had to shovel that out. The stairs were dilapidated and not fit to walk on outside. The wooden floor was sinking on one side from the fluids seeping from diapers.
When I went outside by walking around the house..the backyard was a total mess...fast food wrappers everywhere, trash, junk, an old oven. I noticed the basement door chewed out in one corner. I opened the door and I heard an animal inside..it was a dog. A skinny black labrador where you could palpate and see the ribs on it. I was so distraught looking at the poor thing, I wanted to take it home, but I didnt know what diseases it had. I went to the grocery store and bought a bag of dog food, opened it and left it in the basement for it to eat while we asked neighbors who lived here.
The neighbors claimed it was a drug-using family that were kicked out. I told them about the dog and they said they knew about it and they felt sorry for it and would throw their left over food in the backyard for it to eat. When we called the police to notify them about the animal cruelty, the following day someone had taken away the dog...we think it was the neighbors who tipped off the old owners before the cops could come.
That has to be on the top 3 worse apartments I've seen. There was another apartment where we evicted a drug user who liquid-nailed shut all the windows to conserve heat and had dogs, cats, rabbits, and ferrets in his house. When we walked in, the rabbit was *****ing the dog...the smell was so bad b/c he was trying to conceal his pets from us and the neighbors when we opened the door to let the house breathe, the neighbors 100 feet away could smell it. He also had a qaudropolegic father that he used to steal the Social security checks from, who wasnt cared for and was allowed to sleep in his own excrement.
Ok I"LL STOP THERE.
