Woman Reveals 'Disgusting' View That Was Hidden From Her Until She Bought The Apartment

An unlucky woman from New York City only realised her new apartment had a disgusting view after she'd paid up and moved in.

When moving house, one of the worst nightmares is realising there's something horribly wrong with the place only after you've signed on the dotted line and already sunk some money into the place.

It might be neighbours from hell, the sudden discovery of mould or putting your foot on a floorboard somewhere in the place and feeling it start to go.

Or, in this unfortunate woman's case, it might be that the entire building's bins sit directly outside your window and you didn't know that because you were shown around the place just after they'd been taken out.

Carol (@notfromdenmark) moved into a New York apartment in September only to discover a veritable ocean of bin bags piled out outside her window on a daily basis.

While she knew the building she was moving into stored bins outside her window, she'd been shown around the property just after they'd been taken out and therefore hadn't seen just how bad things could get the rest of the time.

In her video she showed a picture of a few bins full of cardboard, only to switch to an image of an area full of rubbish.

She said: 'I toured it on Monday night, Monday is the day they take the trash out here apparently.

'At no point in the entire process did they mention that this is where they store the garbage, it wasn't in the lease, they didn't mention it when I toured.'

Carol has since kept people updated on her situation with the mountain range of garbage parked outside her window on a daily basis, including the time she called the fire brigade to warn them of the massive hazard sitting outside her window (which also blocks the building's fire escapes).

There was also a festive TikTok for viewers to enjoy, because nothing says Christmas quite like a pile of rubbish covered with snow.

As if that wasn't bad enough, Carol has since had to put up with her apartment being flooded after a water leak from two floors above her.
