Get Rent Break in Writing, Again Q: Four years ago, my landlord agreed in writing to a $350 rent reduction on my one-bedroom apartment. The landlord is now very ill, and there is a good chance the building will be sold. With Preparation, the Perfect Place Could Be Yours Finding affordable housing can be difficult for recent grads searching for places to live in the Washington area, especially those new to the rental experience. Cleaning That Can Pay Off I am moving out of my apartment soon, and I'm working on a little deep cleaning to avoid move-out costs. I have a gas stove, and the top of it is white. It looks a little burnt around the burners, I think from residue from the gas cooking. Is there a good way to clean this?
