Haskett and Raymond Huffman’s alcohol-laced arguments inside their San Francisco apartment are infamous), we want to know: Are you someone experiencing these types of issues?

Please tell us how your less-than-pleasant experience play out for you? How did you resolve it? What would you have done better? Did you have to move? Leave your stories in the comments. While some tales may be a little disturbing to recall, remember you’re in good company. Many city dwellers have an arsenal of similar renting horror stories to share.
