I would be shitting bricks dude. Definitely call a building inspector NOW. They are usually pretty cool guys and I’m sure would help you out. OR Turn the stove on, turn on blowtorch in living room. leave.

go to the DA’s office with this, because you seriously live in a building that is more un safe than walking through a known mine field. get him shut down before you have pending legal action. waste no time with it.

Yea I would contact the DA. I actually met with one of Albanys DA’s on thursday and the guy was real nice and very understanding. You might as well try and get this guy shut down cause he is an obvious slum lord

Take pictures of EVERYTHING. Your locks, the sinkhole, everything. Get one of those bubble levelers and take a pic of it on the floor to show the slope. Do whatever you gotta do. If all else fails, light on fire. I know a guy who knows a guy who was in business with a guy’s sister who knows a guy that could help you out. My mom is also a property manager, so I can ask her some tips.
