Reply to Where to watch US v. GB match for family with some kids and a few non-drinkers. by The_Waxies_Dargle
England, not GB (which would be England/Scotland/Wales). The match won't be hard to find, but I have no idea where you'd be most likely to find other kids.

I’ve been using Daikin heat pump at my 1600 sq ft house + unfinished basement since 2017 with zero issues. It’s actually cheaper than the boiler with radiant heat I had before since natural gas is so pricey these days. Cheaper than Mitsubishi but not the cheapest by any means. I think Mr. Cool is a pretty popular low end heat pump, could’ve been that maybe?
Or maybe that particular landlord simply got too small of a unit and/or hired a crappy installer who cut corners?

Kids at a bar is not something you see a lot of at a bar. Guilford hall brewery is certainly large enough to hold them. Slainte in Fells Point may have some rugrats running around.

My friend lived in that building on Read St. during that tragedy. It was horrible.
And I have other friends that got in a lot of trouble renting with them cause Baltimore city came after the company… but my friends were caught in the crossfire and forced to terminate a lease due to Am. Management’s negligence and poor practices.
And MORE friends that struggled with general negligence and abusive practices for years. The really rely on leasing to people that NEED affordable rent and can’t afford the time/$$$ of fighting them for their wrongdoings.
All that said, I noticed they haven’t been in the neighborhood chatter as much. Maybe they’re getting their shit together, but I would still err on the side of caution and avoid at all costs.

BWW is always family friendly, but none in the city.

I was told by the BGE Home energy efficiency guy that the heat pump installed was not suitable for this climate, but cheap landlords install them anyway because it isn't illegal.

It’s totally fine to have a heat pump here… if undersized though it’s certainly problematic

They suck, but they're not the worst. Take this with a grain of salt, though, because I organize tenants against their slumlords and know what the worst really is. I moved in to an apartment with a broken fridge and had to replace it myself as it's not included in the lease. Took 3 weeks of calls to get them to remove the old fridge as promised. They were fairly quick to respond to a leak. The property had heat pump heating which is not appropriate for such a cold climate- couldn't use it in the coldest months because it stayed on "emergency heat" always and cost $400 in BGE bills. They're certainly out to spend as little money as legally possible on their properties.
Read your lease carefully, because anything not in there, they'll tell you to go fuck yourself. Besides that, though, they did take care of the essentials and didn't try to steal from me or take money they weren't entitled to.

More of a cheap person than car person, but I've been called worse, so I'll take it.

Your experience varies a lot by the quality of the building you are going to move into. I’ve been with them for 2 years but plan on moving after my lease is up. My main annoyance with them is whenever I reach out for maintenance request- they try to charge me for ‘fixing’ little things.

Not a nightmare but I was moving out in early November, I paid them for November, and I told them I’d be using my kitchen for thanksgiving as an extra oven. Right before thanksgiving they came in and tore the whole kitchen out for renovation. I was pissed.

Reply to 'I was shocked:' Baltimore County resident racks up nearly $3,000 E-ZPass bill by rattus-domestica
Yeah I've had all kinds of issues. I get double or triple charges. The transponder on my car never scans, even though it's brand new to replace another one that never scans. I've called them and they say I'm in the system.
OP can you look up the transaction history on the card you used to pay EZPass as a way to prove to them you already paid?

I don't think you'd need to find that. The city already doesn't fix them. There was a massive pothole/sinkhole in the alley behind 26th and N. Calvert that several people repair tickets in for. It took 3 of my neighbors and my husband popping tires (my husband popped 3 tires at once) on it for the city to come out and do anything.

Every time a home repair van opens its doors, they jettison a spray of nails or speed screws. Do not park in the contractor's area of the Home Depot parking lot.
