So me and my girlfriend decided to move into the crossing apartment in milpitas california. Its our first time moving out of home. We dont know anythign about leasing and our rights. We bought all brand new bed and furniture. We go out to buy some groceries and we come back its INFESTED! There are cockroaches on our new sofa. Our new bed the kitchen everywhere. They all start to run cause of the lights. Tomorrow the cable is comming to isntall everything. Right now i had to take my girlfriend home crying cause she cant live there. All the money we spent seems to be to waste.

If anyone can give me any advice what ic an do. Tomorrow i have to work so i cant talk to the building manager. My girlfriend is going to go with her parents. I talked to some neighbors they heard there was some issue with our aparment. They said there was some horrible smell that woudlnt goa way comming from there. ANd when we moved in we noticed there was brand new carpet for some strange reason. Plus i i think i am allergic to the chemicals in the new carpet its giving me allergies. My day turns into one huge long nightmare that i just want to be over.

From what i read online is all the furniture is probally garbage now cause if we move we take the cockroaches with us. When we left the apartment i tried to kill as many as i could visibly see and left every single light on in the apartment to keep them off the furniture.

Oh and to top it all off the bathtub is leaking water. Now i get to pay a huge water bill and electric bill in a place im not even living in. Not to mention thousands of dollas of garbage furniture.

I took all the food that was not refrigeratble and put it in the dryer since it looks like they cant get inside to it there.

This was supose to be me and my girlfriends first place a big leap and joyouse occasion and turned into a total hellish nightmare.

I know everyone hates cockroaches but my girlfriend is dreadfully afraid of them.

I am asking for help if anyone here has any type of legal advice they can help in my situation. Tomorrow i am going to go over the lease papers and see if they is any way ic an break the contract. Even if the bug bomb the place id ont awnt to live there anymore even if they move us to a different apartment int he complex i afraid they might be infested too!
